Unlocking Visual Workflow: Features Built for Speed and Sharing
CogniGuide moves beyond static images, offering dynamic structures you can build, share, and build upon collaboratively.
Input Flexibility & AI Restructuring
Upload your existing PDFs, DOCX, or PPTX files, or input a prompt. Our AI instantly converts dense text into a clear, hierarchical structure, eliminating manual diagramming effort.
Seamless Collaboration via Share Links
Stop emailing files. Generate your map and immediately share a unique link, allowing teammates or study groups to instantly view and align on the visual structure.
Export for Any Platform
Once the structure is finalized, export your visual knowledge base as a high-quality PNG or PDF, ready for presentations, documentation, or archival.
Visualize Your Data in Three Simple Steps
We bridge the gap between raw information and actionable, visual understanding using powerful AI.

Frequently Asked Questions About AI Mapping
Addressing common concerns about using automated tools for detailed visualization.
What file types can I upload to generate a mind map?
We currently support PDF, DOCX, and PPTX files, as well as plain text input. Our AI analyzes the content structure within these documents to build the initial hierarchical map.
How does collaboration work if it's a free tool?
Collaboration is enabled via shareable, read-only links. Once you generate the map, you can share the link instantly with colleagues or classmates so they can review the visualized structure in real-time.
Can I edit the mind map after the AI generates it?
The AI structures the content initially. While you cannot currently edit the nodes, you can export the map (PNG/PDF) and use that output as a foundation for further refinement in other graphic tools.
Is the output guaranteed to be accurate for complex research documents?
The AI excels at capturing primary relationships and main topics. We always encourage users to review the resulting concept map against the source document to ensure 100% fidelity, especially with highly specialized material.
