Parmind: a digital extension of the mind

The problem
Professionals, researchers and creatives keep their thinking in notes apps, bookmarks and cloud documents. Existing tools force rigid workflows, so ideas get lost and are hard to find again.
The goal was a workspace that works as an extension of your mind: capture, structure and retrieve information without breaking your train of thought.
From Gloow to Parmind
Parmind started as an evolution of an earlier product, Gloow. We kept a few core principles and redesigned the UX and UI from the ground up, refining it with insights from user testing as customers joined in small beta batches.
At the centre is Mind, a workspace built on mind mapping: notes connect to each other, and your whole knowledge base becomes a living map.


Mobile
The mobile app is purposefully different from the web workspace. It is built for quick capture and fast retrieval: jot down an idea in a meeting or on the go, or find a note in seconds.

Outcome
Users spend less time searching for past ideas and more time acting on them. Parmind keeps growing in small, tested steps, and we keep designing it together.
