Read the Docs
Read the Docs is rebuilding its build farm around uv and isolated builders, one week at a time.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Miro and Zoho Sign — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Miro is closing the gap between the workshop board and the deck built from it.
The board is becoming a source for generated deliverables: Miro AI now produces structured Slides presentations from scattered board content. Prototyping is the other heavy investment — an Advanced tab of 76 components, Code to Prototype, prototyping from screenshots and Figma, SVG and Copy-to-Figma export, connector visibility and precise sizing in Focus Modes. Diagramming continues to widen with an electrical-engineering shape pack and style-aware AI diagrams.
Zoho Sign adds the EU's highest signature tier, one week after wiring itself to agents.
Zoho Sign is executing on two fronts that rarely appear together. One is jurisdictional depth: e-Stamping across India, Nafath in Saudi Arabia, legally binding signing for Colombia, signer identity verification across more than 200 countries, and now qualified electronic signatures for the EU through SIGN8. The other is workflow surface area — a SharePoint integration, a native Windows app, a sandbox for testing signature flows — with an MCP integration on top that puts the whole thing behind an AI agent.

Miro is pushing outward at both ends of the canvas — generating the presentation that used to be built elsewhere afterwards, and generating prototypes from code, screenshots and Figma files beforehand. The canvas is being positioned as the middle of a pipeline rather than a standalone whiteboard.
Expect the Slides and Prototypes paths to keep converging on generation from existing artifacts, with the add-on boundary deciding how much of it is included.

The compliance work is the moat and the integration work is the distribution. Adding QES is a different kind of move from the country launches that preceded it: rather than meeting one market's local plumbing, it adds a higher assurance tier above the standard signature, which is how the product starts being sold on the risk profile of the document rather than on the geography of the signer. Combined with the agent-initiated signing shipped in July, Zoho Sign is widening at both ends — the highest-stakes agreements and the ones nobody opens an app to send.
Expect tiering to become explicit in the product — a selector or policy that routes a document to standard, advanced, or qualified signing based on its type — since a qualified tier is only useful if the sender can be steered to it. The country-by-country expansion should continue at its steady pace alongside it.
