See any topic as a branching map
Turn a topic, or your own notes, into a clear, colour-coded mind map. See how the ideas connect at a glance, then download it as an image to revise from or drop into your notes.
What you can do
From a topic or your notes
Start from a single subject, or paste your notes and let Orpheus organise them into a hierarchy.
A clear hierarchy
A central idea branches into main themes and sub-points, laid out cleanly with no overlaps.
Colour-coded branches
Each main branch gets its own colour, so the structure is easy to scan and remember.
Download as an image
Export the finished map as a PNG or SVG to print, share or paste anywhere.
Structure is half of remembering
A topic feels overwhelming when it's a flat list of facts. The same topic feels manageable once you can see that it's really four branches with a few points each. A mind map makes the shape of the subject visible, and the shape is what your memory hangs the details on.
- The whole topic on one screen
Central idea, main branches, sub-points. The full structure at a glance, without scrolling through pages.
- Built from your material
Paste your own notes and the map reflects your course, in your teacher's emphasis and order.
- Colour as a memory aid
Branch colours stay consistent, so 'the green branch' becomes a real place in your memory.
- Print quality export
SVG export stays sharp at any size, ready for a printed poster above your desk.
How it works
Enter a topic
Type a subject, or paste notes to map instead.
Generate
Orpheus builds a logical, multi-level mind map in seconds.
Explore and export
Scroll around the map, then download it as a PNG or SVG.
Made for real study
Trade a page of linear notes for a shape you can actually picture during the exam.
Map the themes of a text or a question before writing, and the paragraph structure falls out of the branches.
Generate a topic overview for the first lesson of a unit, print it large, and annotate it as the weeks go by.
Get more out of it
- 1Paste your own notes rather than a bare topic name when you can. The map will match your course instead of a generic version.
- 2Use the map as a revision checklist: cover the sub-points and try to recall them branch by branch.
- 3Make a map at the start of a topic and again at the end, and compare how much richer the second one is.
- 4Export as SVG if you plan to print. It stays sharp at poster size.
