  • Visualize relationships between claims and counter-arguments.

Frequently Asked Questions About Essay Mapping

Get clarity on how our AI turns your documents into structured visual outlines.

How does the AI know what the main points of my essay are?

The AI uses advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) to scan your uploaded text, identify declarative sentences (claims), and establish logical hierarchy based on density and contextual relationships—just like an expert editor would structure an outline.

Can I upload a hand-drawn sketch of my essay idea?

Currently, the AI excels at processing digital documents (PDFs, DOCX, TXT) and direct text input. We focus on reliably restructuring complex written arguments into organized concept maps.

Is this better than using a standard essay structure template?

Yes. A static template gives you blank boxes. CogniGuide reads *your specific content* and auto-populates a personalized concept mapping, showing you exactly how *your* evidence supports *your* thesis.

Is the AI generator free to try for essay mapping?

Yes, you can upload your first few document inputs to test the AI generation capability and see the interactive map structure immediately, risk-free.
