AI mind map features

Everything a chat app can't do

You think in graphs, not linear conversations. mindmap.io is built exactly for that.

One canvas, many conversations

Get a second opinion, explore different follow-ups, or run prompt evals side by side. Branch off at any point in your conversation. Every branch keeps full context.

Ask Claude on one branch, GPT on another

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and more. All in one canvas. Switch models at any point in your conversation and compare results side by side.

Web search on prompt nodes

Ask about anything and AI models can search the web to find your answer. If a model uses web search to respond, it will cite the link of the websites it looked at.

An answer about Portugal's digital nomad visa with two citations in its text. Hovering one opens a card with the page title and the passage the claim came from.

Markdown, images, and color coding

Drop a photo, a screenshot or a PDF onto a node and ask about it. Nodes support Markdown rendering, and prompt node responses are rendered as Markdown. You can also color code your mindmap by changing the color of any node using the color palette.

A whole mindmap comparing brainstorming tools, with branches colored pink, amber and violet, a photo of sticky notes, an attached PDF, a hand-drawn sketch branched into its three steps, and Markdown lists.

Let AI take the wheel

Set a depth and let AI do a deep dive. It branches off, asks its own follow-ups, and expands on your thought. Deep dives, literature reviews, entire knowledge bases, all built while you're away.

Big picture when you need it, detail when you don't

AI summarizes every node at four zoom levels. Zoom out to see the bigger picture and scan a hundred branches at a glance, zoom into any conversation for the full detail.

Ask Milo to edit your map

Milo is mindmap.io's AI assistant. It can read your mindmap, edit the nodes and branches, and answer any questions you have. Just talk to it and it will create and organize your mindmap for you.

Use mindmap.io from Claude, ChatGPT, or your own agent

Add the mindmap.io connector to Claude, ChatGPT, OpenClaw, Hermes or any other agent. It can read your mindmaps, answer questions about them, and build new ones for you. See the setup guide.

Claude's settings with the mindmap.io connector added at mindmap.io/mcp, listing its read-only and write tools and when Claude may use each.

Publish your map and share it with others

Publish a map and anyone with the link can read it without an account. Embed the live map in any page, or let readers clone it and keep going in their own.

The Share map dialog on a published map, with the public link, a Copy button, a Start at current view option and an embed snippet.
