Xmind, a mind mapping software company that has served millions of users for two decades, said on Tuesday it is expanding beyond its core mind mapping tool into AI-powered project management, marking the next step in making project planning visual, intelligent, and effortless.
The company announced a platform redesign featuring what it calls "AI Work Breakdown" technology that automatically converts complex projects into structured tasks, marking a significant shift from its traditional mind mapping focus.
The new features include seamless switching between mind map and Gantt chart views, smart task dependencies, and a streamlined interface designed to reduce complexity typically associated with project management software, the company said.
"We're not just adding features; we're rethinking how people approach projects from conception to completion," chief operating office and co-founder Mango Du said in a statement.
The move positions Xmind to compete in the project management software market, which research firms project will reach $9.81 billion by 2026. Unlike traditional project management tools, Xmind's approach emphasizes simplicity and creative workflow integration.
The platform uses artificial intelligence to automatically break down projects into manageable components, reducing manual planning work while maintaining real-time synchronization across different view formats.
Xmind's transformation comes as software companies increasingly integrate AI capabilities to differentiate their products in competitive markets.
