Agents on the Canvas With tldraw

At tldraw, we've been exploring the infinite canvas as a surface for real-time collaboration between multiple agents and multiple users. Learn about what works, what doesn't, and whether the future AI might live on the canvas.Our work with AI on the canvas began with makereal.tldraw.com, often cited as the first "vibe coding" tool to reach escape velocity in November 2023. We later did work with realtime drawing (drawfast.tldraw.com), autocomplete, and a canvas interface for AI with (teach.tldraw.com). In 2024, we shipped an AI workflows app (tldraw.computer) and then returned to our canvas AI learnings with a public starter kit for working on the canvas with cursor-style AI agents (https://tldraw.dev/starter-kits/agent) and then later our spatialized agents-on-the-canvas experiment (fairies.tldraw.com).
