Turn your chemistry notes into a concept map you can edit
Start with a sample chemistry map, then upload your lecture notes, slides, or textbook PDF and get a mind map built from your own material.
What a useful chemistry concept map looks like
Reviewing chemistry concept map examples shows a pattern: one central topic, such as stoichiometry or chemical bonding, with branches for definitions, equations, and worked problems. Good maps keep each connection short and labeled so you can see why two ideas relate.
- Start from one central chemistry topic per map.
- Label each connection with a short phrase, such as ionic: electron transfer.
- Keep equations and units on their own nodes so they are easy to quiz.
- Redraw the map from memory after a study session to find gaps.
Editable branches
Rename, move, or add nodes so the map matches how your course organizes the material.
Explorable structure
Expand and collapse branches to move from broad topics like bonding down to individual definitions.
Works from your files
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text, or photos of pages read with text recognition.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a chapter PDF, slide deck, or typed notes from class.
Review the generated map
Check that the main chemistry topics and their connections match your notes.
Edit and explore
Adjust branches, then navigate the map to quiz yourself on how ideas link together.
Most course material is not organized that way on its own. A textbook chapter runs linearly, so the links between atomic structure, bonding, and reaction behavior are easy to miss. Building a map from your own notes forces you to name those relationships.
DeckOwl reads your uploaded file and proposes a mind map you can change. You keep control of the structure, and the map becomes a study guide for the exam topics your instructor actually covers.

Frequently asked questions
How do I make a chemistry concept map from my notes?
Upload your lecture notes or a PDF, and DeckOwl generates a mind map with the main topics as branches. You can then edit nodes and explore the connections.
What should a chemistry concept map include?
Start with a central topic such as bonding or stoichiometry, then branch into definitions, equations, and worked examples. Keep each link short so it explains why two ideas relate.
Can I export my mind map?
The free plan lets you study maps in the browser. Exporting is a paid feature included with Plus, which costs $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes 3 generations per month, and no credit card is needed to start.
