What is BiuMind

BiuMind is an all-in-one AI work platform. Work that used to be scattered across multiple tools — writing documents, running agents, coding, taking notes — comes together in a single workspace with shared data: documents, web clips, and anything worth keeping from your conversations all land in the same knowledge base, where AI connects them into a knowledge graph that every module can reuse.

There are two ways to run it:

  • Cloud (sign up and go): register an account at biumind.ai and start using it — good for individuals and small teams.
  • Self-hosting: bring up the full service stack with one command, with all data staying on your own servers — good for enterprises and data-sensitive scenarios.

The client experience is identical in both modes. See the Quickstart for details.

The six modules

Knowledge Hub

Where you write documents and manage knowledge (backed by the brain service; the client maps to features/wiki, features/notes, features/memory, features/search):

  • Wiki documents: write in a block-based editor, with page version history, revision diffs, and merging.
  • Knowledge graph: see how pages relate to each other in a graph view, with condition-based filtering.
  • AI memory: AI remembers what you've said and your preferences, and automatically brings that context into chat, coding, Channels, and other scenarios.
  • Global search: semantic search across all your documents — one sentence brings back what you wrote before.
  • External content: the browser clipper extension saves any webpage into a Wiki source with one click; clipped or imported content can then be organized into multiple Wiki pages through an AI ingestion pipeline.

Coding Workbench

Dispatch AI engineers from a graphical interface (the client maps to features/code; backed by the runtime service, which shares the same agent kernel as the biu CLI):

  • Run multiple AI tasks in parallel, each editing code in its own workspace.
  • Built-in Git panel (branches / commits / history), terminal, and file tree.
  • The AI asks for your confirmation before editing files or running commands, with controllable permission policies and optional Hooks for auditing.
  • Extend agent capabilities with Skills.

Creation (AIGC)

Turn an idea into a finished piece in one sentence (the client maps to features/creation; backed by the aigc service plus async workers):

  • Text-to-image and text-to-video.
  • Viral content teardown that analyzes why a piece of content took off.
  • Persona management, a gallery of generation tasks, and a single place where your finished work accumulates.

Cloud Workspace

Switch devices or entry points without interrupting your work:

  • Sessions, tasks, and memory live on the server (runtime + realtime services); sign in with the same account from desktop, mobile, or the command line and pick up where you left off.
  • Bring your own model key (BYOK): your API keys are stored encrypted by the platform, all model calls are routed through the model gateway (model-relay), and billing stays consistent.

Channels

Bring AI into the communication tools you already use (backed by the channels service):

  • Drivers for Feishu, Telegram, Slack, Discord, and email are implemented (enabled per deployment environment).
  • Incoming messages get automatic replies, with your knowledge base and AI memory automatically recalled as answer context so answers stay on point.

App Center

Professional AI assistants out of the box (the client maps to features/apps; backed by the app_center service):

  • Built-in reference apps: RSS (subscribe to feeds; AI generates summaries / daily digests / weekly digests / transcripts), Translate, and Tasks.
  • Apps can be installed and upgraded — or build your own BiuApp and publish it to the App Center.

Available on every device

One account, multiple entry points you can switch between at any time. The CLI and the graphical clients share the same kernel, and sessions are interchangeable:

Entry point Notes
Desktop (the primary work client) macOS (Apple Silicon) installer is released; Windows / Linux installers are in the works — use the Web version in the meantime
Mobile Android is available as a direct APK download; iOS is coming soon
Web Open in a browser and go, nothing to install
Browser extension Chrome / Edge / Brave clipper extension — save whatever you're looking at into your knowledge base with one click
Command line biu CLI: chat, run agents, and work with your knowledge base from the terminal
Mini programs uni-app mini programs (WeChat / Alipay / Douyin / Baidu / QQ / Kuaishou / JD / Feishu / H5), under construction
