Foundation Update: Focus with Zones, Plan with Ease

NEW FEATURE

Zone

Zones let you define and manage a specific area within a mind map independently. You can move, copy, reuse, or refine a group of content without affecting the rest of the map, making complex structures easier to handle. Zones also double as visual layout and export boundaries. What you see is exactly what you print or export.

NEW FEATURE

Skip Non-working Days

You can customize working days, holidays, and special exceptions for different regions, industries, or teams, and apply shared working-day templates across projects. Plan your project timelines based on how your team actually works, helping avoid misleading schedules and unrealistic deadlines.

IMPROVEMENT

Enhanced Gantt Chart

Instead of constantly switching between dates, durations, and dependencies, you can now plan tasks in one continuous flow and let the Gantt Chart follow along. Just define a start point and task durations. The system automatically calculates start and end dates.

IMPROVEMENT

Pitch Video

Pitch Video helps you quickly turn a mind map into a clear presentation video. AI automatically organizes content based on your idea and time limit, deciding what to highlight and how to pace it. This makes it easier to explain concepts, share proposals, or present ideas without manually building slides.

IMPROVEMENT

Make Image

You can now generate vibrant stickers that perfectly match your topics directly within your mind map—no need to switch tools. AI understands your ideas and helps turn them into effective image-generation prompts. You can further fine-tune these prompts and switch between different image models and preset styles to fit your preferences.
