Why a browser-based mind map app suits school notes
Many people who search for a mind map app on the Play Store want a way to turn lecture slides or textbook chapters into a visual outline before an exam. DeckOwl runs in your browser, so you can open it on a phone, tablet, or laptop and skip installing anything.
- Works with PDFs, slides, notes, and photos of pages
- Editable nodes so the map reflects your course
- Expandable branches for reviewing one topic at a time
- No credit card needed to start on the free plan
Editable branches
Rename, move, or add nodes so the map matches how your course is organized.
Explorable structure
Expand and collapse branches to move from the main topic down to the details.
Built from your material
Maps come from your own PDFs, slides, and notes, including text read from photos.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file, or a photo of a page.
Generate the map
The AI pulls out the main ideas and arranges them into branches and sub-points.
Edit and explore
Adjust the layout, fill in gaps, and expand each branch while you review.
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes, or a photo of a page. The AI reads the text, finds the main topics, and builds a map with branches you can rename, rearrange, or expand. That makes it easier to see how ideas connect than a flat list of notes.
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and lets you study in the browser. Plus adds unlimited generations and exports, so you can take a finished map or your study material into other tools.
