How to turn class notes into a mind map
A lecture deck or a page of class notes often holds more topics than you can keep in your head at once. When you create mind map notes from that material, the ideas sort into a central topic with branches you can open, rearrange, and edit.
- Start with one central topic that names the whole unit or chapter.
- Use five to seven main branches so the map stays readable.
- Put dates and names under the branch they belong to, not in a separate list.
- Edit the map after generation so it matches what your instructor covered.
Built from your own material
Upload PDF, DOCX, or PPTX files, paste plain text notes, or photograph a page and let text recognition read it.
Editable map
Rename nodes, move branches, add your own sub-points, or delete what you do not need so the map matches how you think about the topic.
Explorable branches
Open one branch at a time to focus on a single theme, then zoom back out to see how the main ideas connect.
How it works
Add your notes
Upload a file or paste your notes into the box. The free plan includes 3 generations per month.
Review the generated map
Check the central topic and main branches to confirm the structure follows your course material.
Edit and explore
Adjust the nodes, expand the branches you need, and study the map in the browser.
A useful map usually starts with one broad question, such as what caused an event or how a process works, and then splits into causes, key people, dates, and outcomes. Keeping each branch to two to four sub-points makes the map easier to scan and review before an exam.

Frequently asked questions
How many main branches should a mind map for a history unit have?
Five to seven is usually enough to cover causes, major theaters or phases, key events, and outcomes. Each branch can then hold two to four sub-points.
What is the best way to study a mind map for an exam?
Cover the sub-points and try to recall each branch from its main node, then check yourself against the map. Repeat the branches you missed until you can rebuild the full structure from memory.
Can I edit the mind map after it is generated?
Yes, the map is editable, so you can rename nodes, move branches, and add or remove sub-points. You can also explore it one branch at a time.
Is exporting my mind map free?
Exports are a paid feature. Plus is $39 per year or $7.99 per month and includes PDF and DOCX export, while the free plan lets you study in the browser.
