Frequently Asked Questions About AI Mapping
Addressing common concerns when moving from manual tools to AI-powered structure generation.
Can I upload proprietary or confidential documents?
Security is paramount. All documents uploaded are processed securely, and we prioritize user data protection. Our focus is solely on structuring the content you provide, not retaining sensitive information beyond the generation process.
How does this differ from using a template in Canva?
Canva templates require you to manually populate and design every node. CogniGuide reads the complexity of your input document (up to 50 pages) and automatically builds the necessary hierarchical structure, adapting the complexity level for you.
What if the initial AI structure isn't perfect?
While our AI is highly accurate in diagram complex systems, the initial output gives you the structural foundation. You can easily review the expandable branches and re-prompt specific sections if needed, ensuring the final visual knowledge base meets your precise standards.
Can I collaborate on the generated mind maps?
Yes. Once the AI creates the map structure from your files, you can generate share links to collaborate on review and alignment with team members, turning research synthesis into a team effort.
