GanttPilot

GanttPilot focuses on the schedule layer of project work. Users import an existing task list or Project file, check dependencies and schedule logic, describe changes and preview affected tasks with date impacts, then save a working plan and export Excel or Project XML. The website states that AI suggests revisions and the user approves them before the plan is updated, and that the schedule stays editable. It also offers templates (including construction, equipment installation, shutdown turnaround, aggregate processing, general Gantt, and Microsoft Project schedules) and an AI Gantt chart generator from a project description. Native .mpp export is not available; exported XML must be opened in Microsoft Project to save as .mpp.
