    Plane unveils new identity and AI powered product suite

    MUMBAI — Plane, the open-source project management workbench trusted by over a million users globally, has announced a major rebrand and the launch of an expanded, AI-powered product suite. While the rebrand includes a new visual logo, it more significantly reflects Plane’s evolution from a developer-focused tool to a scalable platform built for cross-functional teams and modern enterprises.

    Plane’s growth over the past year has been rapid and far-reaching. What began as a lightweight, self-hosted project management alternative has evolved into a unified operating system for work—used by Fortune 500 companies, private defence contractors, government departments in over 20 countries, and high-growth companies across AI, healthcare, manufacturing, and finance.

    “Project management should feel light, adaptable, and transparent,” said Vamsi Kurama, founder of Plane. “This rebrand brings that belief to larger organisations—combining simplicity with the performance, extensibility, and security they demand.”

    At the heart of the rebrand is the introduction of Plane’s unified product suite: a seamless interface that combines project tracking, knowledge management, and AI-driven automation. This evolution is guided by Plane’s core product philosophy, Planes of Work—a flexible model that reflects how real-world teams operate across disciplines and changing priorities. Unlike legacy platforms that enforce rigid workflows or bundled features, Plane lets teams adopt only what they need—without unnecessary upsells or vendor lock-in.

    As part of this transformation, Plane is also introducing Plane Intelligence (Pi)—a suite of AI features currently in beta with select design partners. Pi helps teams query unstructured knowledge across tools, interact with Plane data using models like ChatGPT and Claude, and deploy AI teammates that automate time-consuming workflows. The result is faster decision-making, fewer blockers, and more empowered teams.

    While the open-source Community Edition—with over 37,000 GitHub stars—remains a core part of the company’s DNA, enterprise adoption is accelerating. Plane’s self-hosted and airgapped editions, which offer full feature parity with the cloud version, have gained traction in regulated sectors where control and compliance are critical. Enterprise-grade features such as SAML, RBAC, audit logs, and dedicated implementation services ensure a smooth transition from legacy systems like Jira Server.

    “We didn’t just redesign our logo. We rebuilt Plane to meet the complexity and ambition of modern work,” added Kurama. “And we’ve done it while preserving the clarity and openness of our community values.”

    Plane Intelligence is in beta, available to Business and Enterprise plan users on request.

Almost a decade later when Hae Sung comes looking for Nora, they both confront destiny, love and the choices they made. Directed by Celine Song, the film is soul-food for every romance lover.

    About My Father

    This Robert De Niro starrer makes for the perfect laugh. Unlike the usual bitter-sweet chemistry between father and son, this one surely sets itself apart. Based on the life of the popular comedian Sebastian Maniscalco, this rib-tickling comedy has a high quotient of never-ending laughter and impeccable comic commentary on family and culture. The film promises to be a hilarious and heartwarming tribute to different cultures and experiences as told through the eyes of one of today’s most beloved comedians, starring Sebastian Maniscalco himself along with Kim Cattrall and Leslie Bibb.

    JoyRide

    These girls just want to have fun! Packed with comedy, drama and some NSFW instances, Joy Ride follows Audrey Sullivan on a path to self-discovery. When Audrey’s business trip to Asia goes wrong, she calls on her childhood bestie, Lolo, her college friend Kat and Lolo’s eccentric cousin Deadeye for help. Stranded in a country with nowhere to go, this wild squad embarks on a journey of utter chaos and debauchery that unveils their true loving selves.

    Minus One: New Chapter

Starring Ayush Mehra and Aisha Ahmed, Minus One is a story of love, longing and heartbreak as it touches on the themes of honesty, transparency and unrequited love.

    Plane

    An action film starring Gerard Butler and Mike Colter, Plane follows a commercial pilot named Brodie Torrance and a terrifying crash that marks only the beginning of his epic journey in the film. While an action film starring the two may seem like an obvious win for most audiences, the film’s plot is a darker action adventure with a life-or-death scenario. In Plane, Butler and Colter band together as pilot and fugitive to protect their fellow besieged crash survivors from swarming, hostage-taking pirates.

    Shotgun Wedding
