Shiko is a mind-mapping canvas your whole team edits at once. Start with one idea, bring everyone in, and leave the meeting with a plan everyone built.

Type it the way you think it.
Write a node in plain text: a task list, a question with choices, or a note in Markdown. A hashtag adds a tag and a caret sets the due date.

Let the map suggest.
Expand an idea or find connections. Suggestions wait on the canvas until someone accepts them. Pro.

CounterpointsChallenge this idea with opposing views
Instruction
Generate rigorous counterpoints to the focus idea: counterarguments, risks, alternatives, or ways to test it. Keep each one concise (under 180 characters), specific to the idea, and different from the others.
This is everything the recipe tells the AI. Nothing is hidden.

Questions
Shiko is a collaborative mind-mapping app for small teams. Ideas sit on a shared canvas as connected nodes, your team edits the map together in real time, and it turns into a plan with tasks and dates.
Small teams that plan work together: launch plans, workshops, research, kickoffs, retros and roadmaps. It works for one person too, and you can invite people when the plan needs them.
There is a free plan with 3 mind maps, 50 nodes per map and up to 3 collaborators per map. Pro is $12 a month or $120 a year, with unlimited maps, nodes and collaborators and 100 AI actions a month. During the closed beta, join the wishlist to get a spot.
Share a room code with your team. While Shiko is in closed beta, each teammate needs an invited account to join; once they're in, every edit syncs live.
Yes, on Pro. AI can expand an idea or find connections, and its suggestions wait on the canvas until someone accepts them. You can also save an instruction as a recipe and run it on any idea.
Yes. Maps are private by default. Only you and the people you invite can see them. A plugin that connects to another site only does so when someone editing the map adds or refreshes it, and it sends only what's typed into it to the site it names. We don't train AI on your data.
Yes. PNG and SVG export is free for everyone; Pro adds PDF and JSON. You can also download a full copy of your account data at any time.
Yes. Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other apps that support MCP can read your maps and edit the ones you can edit. Every change they make shows up in the map's History. You connect an app from Settings › Connections, where the address and the steps for each app are. Free includes 50 edits a month and Pro is unlimited.
