MindMapVault vs Xmind

MindMapVault is an encrypted vault for creating, editing, and storing mind maps, notes, attachments, and map relationships. For cloud use, map content is encrypted on the device with AES-256-GCM before upload, and the server stores ciphertext; its hybrid key encapsulation combines X25519 and ML-KEM-768. Cloud Free provides 25 MB encrypted storage, three active shares, five published maps, and a 5 MB maximum file size. Cloud Pro costs $50 a year and provides 1 GB, 100 active shares, effectively unlimited published maps, and a 50 MB maximum file size. A free desktop-local app and self-hosted Docker deployment are also listed. The desktop app works offline without an account or server and keeps data on the device. The web app can be installed as a PWA on iPhone and Android, with offline use supported. Imports include FreeMind, Freeplane, WiseMapping, XMind, and Markdown; exports include JSON, Markdown, FreeMind, PNG, and PDF. There is no real-time collaboration, and credentials cannot be recovered for existing encrypted vault contents if lost.

Xmind is a mind-mapping app with AI assistance, presentation mode and real-time collaboration. It runs on the web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android, and exports to PNG, SVG, PDF, Markdown, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OPML, TextBundle and Text. The Free plan costs nothing and allows up to 10 manually created online maps, three-day version history, five Pitch slides and 50 AI credits. Pro costs $4.92 a month and permits up to 50 online maps, with 50 AI credits listed. Premium costs $8.25 a month and includes unlimited collaborative maps, 30-day version history and 500 AI credits each month; this plan offers a free trial. Premium users can export tasks to Calendar or Excel. Xmind says files are stored locally and syncing uses AWS. When a subscription expires, maps remain stored and accessible, but paid features become unavailable. The company is identified as SUPERMIND PTE. LIMITED, headquartered in Shenzhen, Guangdong, China.
