Frequently Asked Questions About AI Mapping
Answers to common queries about transitioning from traditional tools to AI-driven visualization.
How does the AI create the map from my text?
The AI uses advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify main themes, supporting arguments, and the relationships between them, structuring this data into an optimized hierarchical view.
What file types can the AI generator read?
We currently support high-fidelity ingestion of PDFs, DOCX (Microsoft Word), PPTX (PowerPoint presentations), and plain text inputs.
Is this better than using a static template?
Yes. While templates offer structure, our AI personalizes the content specifically to *your* input documents, ensuring every node is relevant and accurate to your source material.
Is the AI mind map generator free to try?
CogniGuide offers a robust free tier that lets you test the core functionality, including limited document uploads, so you can experience the power of AI mapping immediately.
