Why Miro is the best diagram maker
Supercharge brainstorming with AI-powered idea generation
Turn thin analysis into rich insights using Miro's Create with AI capabilities. When your team gets stuck generating potential root causes, prompt our AI to suggest additional causes based on your existing analysis. Generate comprehensive lists of factors for each fishbone category, spark new perspectives on overlooked causes, and expand your thinking beyond the obvious culprits. Your fishbone diagram becomes a thorough investigation tool, not just a basic outline.
Include all voices
Transform fishbone analysis from one-person presentations into full-team investigations. Every team member adds sticky notes simultaneously, building a comprehensive view of potential causes in real-time. Remote and in-person participants contribute equally, ensuring diverse perspectives shape your root cause analysis. Watch insights emerge as different team members connect causes you hadn't considered.
Connect causes to solutions seamlessly
Turn your completed fishbone diagram into an action plan without losing momentum. Use the same board to transition from analysis to solution planning, maintaining the context and collaborative energy your team built during the investigation. Export your analysis for stakeholder presentations or integrate findings directly into project management workflows.
Explore powerful integrations
Make your workflow seamless with your favorite tech stack. After you create your fishbone diagram, turn your outcomes into action, converting sticky notes into Jira tickets directly on your board.
Build comprehensive analysis in minutes, not hours
Stop staring at blank whiteboards, trying to remember all the possible categories. Miro's fishbone diagram template gives your team a head start with pre-built categories like People, Process, Environment, and Materials. Your team jumps straight into the analysis that matters – identifying specific causes within each category and connecting them to your main problem.
A visual workspace for innovation
Use the fishbone diagram maker together with other tools to find solutions. Explore the infinite canvas, adding other templates and artifacts, and enable your team to identify your problem’s root causes better and faster.
