A new valuation for Miro signals a market reset for collaboration tools

Bending Spoons is acquiring Miro for $1.36 billion, a striking step down from the $17.5 billion valuation that defined the collaboration startup in late 2021. That is a 90% drop, and it reframes what investors now think this category is worth. It is a sobering reset, but not a defeat. Miro still has a product people use. The deal signals a more pragmatic era for workplace tools, where growth matters less than sustainable value.
