Make the map from your own vocabulary pages

Vocabulary units make more sense when you can see how words group together, and a mind map for English Vocabulary in Use does that job well. DeckOwl does not supply the book or a ready-made copy of it, but it can turn your own unit pages, typed notes, or photos into a map built from that text.

Works with PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain text, and photos of pages read with text recognition.
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser.
Plus adds unlimited generations and PDF export for $39/year or $7.99/month.
Students get 40% off with a school email, and no credit card is needed to start.

Frequently asked questions

How big should a vocabulary mind map be?

Keep each map to one unit or one theme so the branches stay readable. A focused map is easier to review in one sitting than one covering a whole book.

How do I study vocabulary from a mind map?

Cover the word labels and try to recall each meaning and an example sentence, then check yourself against the branch. Repeating the same words over several days works better than one long session.

Can I get a PDF of the mind map?

PDF export is included with the Plus plan, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month. Students with a school email get 40% off.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. The free plan gives you 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to begin.
