Why start from your own material
Turning a lecture into a map works best when you can change it, so this free editable mind map starts from your own PDF or notes instead of a blank page.

- Rename, move, or delete any node after generating
- Expand and collapse branches to study one topic at a time
- Free plan includes 3 generations per month
Editable branches
