What is Tella?

Tella adds a Free plan, redesigns the editor, and broadens distribution into Intercom and beyond.

Tella is in a sustained editor-polish-plus-distribution cycle. The big change: a Free plan now sits alongside Pro, paired with an in-product AI support assistant. The editor was redesigned with a left-side toolbar, lighter UI, and a new transcript sidebar. New layouts (50/50 split) and finer camera-bubble positioning (3×3 grid plus three sizes across orientations) give creators more compositional control. Distribution widens with an Intercom Help Center integration and a refreshed tella.com.

What is Collaboard?

Collaboard plays the secure, European online-whiteboard alternative to Miro.

Roughly one post a month with a steady mix of online-whiteboard educational content (brainstorming, huddle boards, idea boards) and occasional product-feature posts. Security is treated as a first-class differentiator — the April security-features piece reads like a positioning anchor for the EU/Swiss data-hosting buyer.

Tella adds a Free plan, redesigns the editor, and broadens distribution into Intercom and beyond.

◆ Current state

Tella is in a sustained editor-polish-plus-distribution cycle. The big change: a Free plan now sits alongside Pro, paired with an in-product AI support assistant. The editor was redesigned with a left-side toolbar, lighter UI, and a new transcript sidebar. New layouts (50/50 split) and finer camera-bubble positioning (3×3 grid plus three sizes across orientations) give creators more compositional control. Distribution widens with an Intercom Help Center integration and a refreshed tella.com.

◆ Where it's heading

The product is leaning into accessible-funnel-plus-creative-control: lower the barrier to start (Free plan), make the editor look modern and inviting, and embed videos where customers already are (Intercom). View notification controls and webhook events for viewer activity hint at an upcoming push toward integration-ready video analytics.

◆ Prediction

Expect more distribution surfaces (Slack, Notion-style embeds beyond Intercom) and AI features beyond the support assistant — likely auto-chapters, B-roll generation, or transcript-driven editing. The Free plan likely drives an experimentation phase before the next pricing/packaging tightening.

C0.0

Collaboard plays the secure, European online-whiteboard alternative to Miro.

◆ Current state

Roughly one post a month with a steady mix of online-whiteboard educational content (brainstorming, huddle boards, idea boards) and occasional product-feature posts. Security is treated as a first-class differentiator — the April security-features piece reads like a positioning anchor for the EU/Swiss data-hosting buyer.

◆ Where it's heading

Cadence is low and feature drops are quiet but real (the September video-screenshot feature). The product is leaning on operational-frameworks content (Lean huddle boards, swimlane and activity diagrams) to capture teams already running structured processes who need a digital surface that meets European compliance norms.

◆ Prediction

Expect continued small feature posts every quarter or two and continued process-template content. The interesting watch is whether Collaboard makes any louder play for Miro-displacement traffic as Miro continues to consolidate features and raise prices.
