Frequently Asked Questions About Obituary Mapping
Common questions regarding the transformation of biographical texts into visual formats.
Can CogniGuide handle very long or complex obituaries?
Yes. Our AI is designed to ingest substantial textual data, restructuring it logically. While the output is a mind map, the internal processing capability is built to diagram complex systems and extensive narratives effectively.
I only want a map showing family members; can I customize the output?
While we currently focus on generating the initial comprehensive structure, you receive the map visualization immediately. You can easily interpret the automatically generated hierarchical structure to focus only on the branches relevant to genealogy or specific relationships.
What file types can I use to input the obituary text?
We accept plain text pasted directly into the prompt box, or you can upload common document formats like PDF, DOCX, and PPTX. The AI handles the extraction across these media.
How secure are the life details I upload to generate the mind map?
Data security is paramount. All uploaded files and generated maps are processed securely, and we ensure confidentiality regarding the sensitive biographical information used to create your visualization.
