What Sketch It! is
Sketch It! is an online drawing and design tool that runs in the browser. It is aimed at the quick end of design work: sketching an idea, blocking out an interface, or putting together a diagram, without the overhead of a full desktop suite. The listing describes a user friendly interface that lets users create and share design work quickly.
The feature set covers the basics properly. You get drawing tools including lines, shapes, and text editing, multi layer support for anything more complex, and a library of preset shapes and icons so you are not drawing every element by hand. Collaboration is real time, so several people can edit the same file at once, which is useful for remote teams. Work can be exported in multiple formats, the tool is accessible from desktop and mobile devices, and tutorials and templates are provided to help beginners get started. Access follows a free trial with paid plans for continued use.
What you can do with it
- Draw with lines, shapes, and text tools
- Organize complex work across multiple layers
- Pull preset shapes and icons from the material library
- Collaborate live with teammates in one file
- Export and share work in multiple formats
- Start from a template when you need a structure
Who it is for
- Designers sketching product prototypes and interfaces
- Students completing the visual part of coursework
- Remote teams that need a shared canvas
- Anyone who wants to draw without installing software
- Teachers diagramming a concept during a lesson
What to watch out for
A free trial is a trial, so continued use needs a paid plan and you should check current pricing before committing a team. Browser based canvases can slow down on very large files with many layers, so heavy illustration work may be better in a desktop tool. It is a general purpose canvas rather than a specialized design suite, which means it will not replace vector or raster editing for production artwork. Real time collaboration also assumes everyone is online at the same time, and offline edits can create conflicts you will need to resolve manually.
