Who we are and what sets us apart

At Conceptboard, we believe in the power of collaboration – but only when it’s built on a secure foundation. That’s why we develop a digital whiteboard solution that reliably connects teams around the world – transparent, privacy-focused, and easy to use.

What sets us apart? A deep understanding of the needs of modern collaboration and the strong belief that security and innovation are not mutually exclusive.

We stand for trust, responsibility, and technology with integrity – values that shape both our product and the way we work together every day.

Why so many teams trust us

  • Data protection made in Germany

    Our infrastructure is fully GDPR-compliant and hosted exclusively on certified servers in Germany. Your data belongs to you and it stays that way. No cloud risks, no hidden backdoors.

  • A reliable partner for sensitive collaboration

    Whether it’s a ministry, public authority, NGO or large enterprise – we understand how critical secure digital collaboration can be. That’s why we don’t just offer a tool, but a secure, stable, and auditable environment with personal support and a clear set of values.

  • Simple to use, built to scale

    Conceptboard is intuitive and grows with your needs. From your first workshop to a full-scale digital project landscape: our solution adapts to your workflow, not the other way around. Accessible, browser-based, and free from IT overhead.

Trust isn’t a feature – it’s part of our DNA

We believe in collaboration built on respect, reliability, and responsibility – both inside and outside our organization. Our values shape every decision, every feature, and every line of code.

At Conceptboard, people from diverse disciplines bring their perspectives together – united by the goal of creating secure and intuitive solutions for real collaboration. We believe that sustainable digital collaboration can only thrive when trust, transparency, and team spirit are at the core – supported by clarity and the courage to grow.

We listen, think ahead, and act with intention. For us, data privacy isn’t a checkbox – it’s a sign of respect for our users and customers.

Collaboration is our product – and our culture

At Conceptboard, we know that we wouldn’t be where we are today without a great team. Our talents come from a wide range of disciplines and work across more than twelve locations worldwide. What we enable for others, we live ourselves: seamless digital collaboration, regardless of location or time zone. Our distributed work model isn’t a workaround, it’s part of our DNA.

What unites us goes beyond a contract: solidarity, a love for what we do, and a shared passion for better collaboration. That’s how we manage to keep the spirit and agility of a startup even as an established SaaS company. And you can feel that: in the energy we bring to our ideas and the trust we build with others.
