Dubai-based Myndlab launches no-code AI platform
Myndlab, a Dubai-built AI app builder developed by Permus
Software House, has announced its official global launch, marking its expansion from a GCC-focused open beta to an official launch for users worldwide. The launch follows five months of beta testing that saw Myndlab’ s user base expand beyond its initial regional focus, with the US emerging as the platform’ s largest market.
When Myndlab entered open beta in May 2026, early adoption was concentrated primarily across the UAE and Saudi Arabia. As the beta progressed, international demand accelerated, with the US today accounting for 55 % of Myndlab’ s user base, followed by 35 % in the UAE and 7 % across Europe. The shift helped shape Myndlab’ s move towards a global audience, while beta usage provided the team with insight into how users across different markets were building with AI and where they needed greater flexibility beyond initial application generation.
“ What the beta reinforced for us is that the challenge is universal: people have ideas they want to act on, but turning those ideas into working software still requires time, technical resources and often several different tools,” said Bindesh Vijayan, Co-founder and CTO of Myndlab.“ Whether it is someone building for the first time, a small business without a large technical team or a product team looking to move faster, the goal is the same: make the journey from idea to software much more direct. This launch gives users a more complete path to build, test, iterate, deploy and scale what they create.”
