Study and revision

Revise from a map,
not a wall of notes

KiteMind turns a chapter, a lecture or an essay plan into a mind map on iPhone, iPad and Mac. Say or paste what you’re studying, let the on-device AI lay it out, then fold branches away and test yourself.

A study session

From notes to a map you can revise from

  1. Start from what you haveSay the topic, paste your notes, scan a notebook page, or pick a template: Lecture Notes, Study Plan, Paper Outline or Book Notes.
  2. Let the AI lay it outThe on-device AI groups the ideas into branches. Where a branch is thin, choose “Expand this branch” or just ask: “add two examples under photosynthesis”.
  3. Connect the ideasDraw relationship lines between branches and write on them (“causes”, “is part of”), the way a concept map does. Add notes, numbering, boundaries and summaries.
  4. Test yourselfCollapse a branch, try to recall what’s under it, then open it again. Presentation mode walks through the map one branch at a time.

The AI can get facts wrong: check what it adds against your notes and textbook. Every AI change is shown as a preview first, and you decide what stays.

FAQ

Questions about this

Can KiteMind make concept maps?

Yes, in the way most courses use them: the main concepts as branches, plus relationship lines you can label to link ideas across branches. The layouts are mind map, logic chart, tree chart, org chart and flowchart; there’s no free-form canvas where you place boxes anywhere.

Can I print my map or hand it in?

Export a PNG or PDF to print or upload it, or Markdown and OPML if you need the text. Free exports carry a small watermark; Pro removes it.

Does it work in class without Wi‑Fi?

Yes. The AI runs on your device, so drawing and editing work in airplane mode. Voice input needs a one-time download of the speech model for your language.

Is there a subscription or a student plan?

There’s no subscription. Drawing, editing and AI are free and unlimited; Pro is a one-time $9.99 for watermark-free exports, SVG, all 12 styles, and images and icons in nodes.
