Your first five minutes
OpenMind turns natural-language conversations into a typed knowledge graph you can export as a mindmap. Here's the shortest path from sign-in to a useful map.
- Step 1.
Sign in with your email
Go to the sign-in page, enter your email, and click the magic link we send you. No password — the link itself is the credential, and it expires in an hour.
- Step 2.
Create a project
A project is a single knowledge graph plus its conversation history. Click 'New project', give it a title ("Apartment renovation", "Q3 product strategy", "Master's thesis"), and you're in.
- Step 3.
Describe it in plain language
Send your first message. Talk like you would to a teammate: who's involved, what you're deciding, what's blocking you, what risks you see. Don't structure it — that's the model's job.
- Step 4.
Watch the mindmap form
While you talk, OpenMind extracts entities, relations, decisions, and requirements in the background. The mindmap on the right refreshes automatically; new nodes pulse green for a moment so you can see what just landed.
- Step 5.
Export when you need it elsewhere
The export menu in the project header gives you Markdown, Mermaid, OPML, FreeMind, PNG, and SVG. Markdown is the most useful for handing the graph to another LLM; Mermaid renders inline in GitHub PRs; FreeMind opens in any classic mindmap editor.
