Turn mind maps into lightweight project plans
Xmind is a full-featured mind mapping and brainstorming tool that helps to unleash creativity, capture inspiration, and boost productivity. You’ve never mind mapped like this before: brainstorm ideas, organize with outline and present your mind map in just one place with premium experience across all platforms.
Premium plan enables real-time collaboration across desktop, mobile, and web. Multiple users can brainstorm, add notes, and refine project structures simultaneously while staying synced, keeping distributed teams aligned on project direction.
Premium plan includes 500 AI credits monthly for Work Breakdown and Generate To-Do List features. Users can input project descriptions and AI generates structured task hierarchies, saving planning time and reducing manual task creation.
Xmind's project management feature lets users convert mind map topics into tasks with assignees, set priorities, and view progress via Gantt charts. This helps teams move from brainstorming to execution without switching tools, turning abstract ideas into actionable workflows.
Premium plan allows users to export tasks to Calendar (ICS) or Excel, and export Gantt charts to PNG/JPEG/PDF. This bridges Xmind project planning with existing productivity tools and reporting workflows.
Xmind offers mind maps, timelines, matrices, and Zones to structure project information. Users can switch between Outliner (linear view) and visual modes to reorganize tasks and dependencies based on their thinking style and project complexity.
