Turn your YouTube video notes into a mind map you can edit
Paste the transcript or notes from a video, or upload a PDF or slides, and get an explorable mind map you can reshape.
From a video's ideas to a mind map you can study
Long explainer videos pack in many connected ideas, and a YouTube video mind map maker works best when you give it the actual words from the video. DeckOwl reads pasted text and uploaded files, so copy a transcript or type your notes first.

Frequently asked questions
How do I turn a video about renewable energy into a mind map?
Copy the transcript or write notes on the main points, then start with a central topic such as renewable energy. Group the rest under branches like solar, wind, and hydro.
How many main branches should a renewable energy mind map have?
Four to seven main branches with two to four sub-points each is usually easy to scan. Fewer branches make the map quicker to review before a test.
Can DeckOwl make a mind map directly from a YouTube link?
DeckOwl works from text and files rather than video links, so paste the transcript or your own notes instead. Captions are often available to copy from the video page.
Do I need to pay to export my mind map?
Studying in the browser is included on the free plan. Exports such as PDF and DOCX are paid features on Plus, which costs $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month.
