How to create a mind map using AI Agent in AflowMind AI

AflowMind combines traditional map editing with AI-assisted creation from a prompt, document or website.

What is AflowMind AI?

AflowMind is a mind mapping tool that uses AI to help organize and display information. The original product workflow supports blank maps, imported source material and AI-assisted creation.

1. Open the creation workflow

From the workspace, choose the AI creation option. This opens the source selection step.

2. Select an input method

Create from a prompt

Enter a specific topic or outcome. For example, "Create a research plan for understanding customer onboarding problems" gives the map more direction than a broad label.

Create from a document

Use a document when the map should reflect existing material. The recovered AflowMind page describes support for PDF, Word, presentation and Markdown sources with file and character limits in the active application.

Create from a website

Enter an accessible URL to extract and organize the page's main ideas. Verify the result against the source page.

3. Choose a language

Use automatic language detection or select a specific language when technical terms or a multilingual source need more control.

4. Generate and review

AI creates a topic hierarchy and connected branches. Rename vague nodes, remove duplicates and compare important details with the input. Then use expansion, summarization or focus on selected topics.
