Turn your notes into a mind map you can open in Google Docs
Upload a PDF, DOCX, slide deck, or photo of a page and get a branched mind map you can edit, explore, and take into your docs.
Why build a mind map from your own material
Many students who need a mind map in Google Docs end up typing boxes and arrows by hand, which takes longer than the studying itself. DeckOwl starts from the material you already have, so the map reflects your lecture slides and readings rather than a template.
- Upload a lecture PDF and get a branched outline in one pass
- Edit any node, add branches, and keep the structure you need
- Export DOCX on Plus to open the map in Google Docs
- Start free with 3 generations a month, no credit card required
Starts from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, plain notes, or photos of pages. Text is read from each source and organized into a main topic with branches.
Editable branches
Rename, move, add, or delete any node after generation so the map matches your course notes instead of a generic outline.
Opens in Google Docs
On Plus, export the map as DOCX, which Google Docs can open directly. PDF export is also included.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, a DOCX file, slides, or a photo of handwritten or printed pages.
Explore the map
Click through the main branches and sub-points to see how the ideas connect.
Edit and export
Adjust any node, then export as DOCX on Plus to continue working in Google Docs.
Each branch stays editable, so you can rename a node, reorder it, or add your own examples. The free plan covers 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and Plus adds PDF and DOCX export for taking the map into Google Docs.

Frequently asked questions
How do I arrange supply and demand concepts in a mind map?
Start with two main branches, supply and demand, then attach each law, the factors that shift each curve, and the equilibrium point where they cross. Keep each node to one idea so you can recall it under test conditions.
What should a supply and demand mind map include?
Include the law of demand, the law of supply, equilibrium price and quantity, shortages and surpluses, and common shifters like income, input costs, and technology. Labeling which way each curve moves after a shift helps you remember the reasoning.
Can I edit the mind map after DeckOwl generates it?
Yes, every branch and sub-point can be renamed, moved, or deleted after generation. You can also add your own nodes so the map matches your course notes.
Do I have to pay to get a mind map into Google Docs?
Generating a map is included in the free plan, which allows 3 generations per month. Exporting as DOCX or PDF requires Plus at $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month, and students get 40% off with a school email.
