Novastart

Novastart is The Infinite Canvas Whiteboard OS, an operating system built around one endless, zoomable canvas instead of separate windows and tabs. On Novastart, your apps live directly on the canvas, side by side with your notes, sketches, documents and ideas, so you can lay out an entire project in one place and move between pieces of work simply by panning and zooming.

Canvases can be shared, so teams can work together on the same space in real time, whether they are planning a product, running a meeting, teaching a class or mapping out a strategy. Everything stays visible and connected rather than buried in folders.

Novastart also brings AI agents onto the canvas. Agents work alongside you in the same shared space, where you can see what they are doing and build on their output directly.

Novastart was founded in 2025 by Thomas Fraher and Nick Fraher and is built in Rust. It runs on Novastart computers that come with Novastart OS pre-installed: 14, 15 and 17 inch laptops and 75, 90 and 100 inch smart whiteboards for offices and classrooms.

Novastart offers a free plan. Pro costs $10 per month, and Team costs $20 per user per month. Watch the demo video and try Novastart at novastart.com today.
