Google Jamboard is an online interactive whiteboard and collaboration tool that exists as an app in the Google Workspace. It was created to work with a physical Google Jamboard device (a large touchscreen intended for conference rooms) but also works through web, mobile, and tablet apps.
The Jamboard app allows you to create a Jam (the collaboration session) with up to 50 collaborators. Each collaborator can add shapes, sticky notes, images, and more to the Jam session in real-time.
