Why a mind map helps when the material is long

Long chapters often hide how ideas connect. This AI mind map generator app reads your PDF, DOCX, or notes and builds a map with a central topic and branches you can rearrange, expand, and explore.

  • Turns long PDFs and notes into a single visual outline
  • Lets you edit every branch after the map is generated
  • Expands sections so you can focus on one topic at a time
  • Pairs with flashcards and quizzes made from the same material

Built from your files

Works with PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text, and photos of pages read with text recognition.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, Word file, slide deck, or pasted notes. Photos of printed pages work too.

Review the generated map

Read the main topic and its branches, then adjust anything that does not match your lecture.

Explore and study

Expand the branches you need to review and turn key points into flashcards or quiz questions.

Mind maps work well for subjects with many linked parts, such as government structure, biology pathways, or historical causes. Seeing the relationships first makes the detailed reading easier to place.
