Hi HN,
This is Shin and I'm working on Eraser.
Visual ideation and brainstorming is tough via Zoom. During WFH, I wished there was a lightweight whiteboard that didn't have 30 buttons on it (looking at you, Miro). For things like visualizing half-formed ideas, on-the-fly architecture discussions, and sketching lo-fi wireframes.
Eraser is a canvas for visual collaboration. It's built on Excalidraw – the awesome open-source drawing tool with a hand-drawn feel. On top of it, we've added a file system, team-based access control, as well as a Quill-based text editor for meeting agendas and notes.

Here's the app (https://www.tryeraser.com) and the marketing website for use case inspirations (https://www.tryeraser.com/home).
It's still very early, but would love your feedback on Eraser!
