Knowledge takes shape through connections between ideas.

An idea can change the meaning of the evidence around it; a decision can lead to consequences far beyond its immediate effect.KnowMapped makes these connections visible, linking concepts and evidence in knowledge maps and tracing what may follow in futures wheels.

Knowledge maps

Knowledge maps connect concepts, findings, and sources through directional, labeled relationships. Cross-links let a concept relate to several parts of a subject, forming a network rather than a single hierarchy.

Futures wheels

Futures wheels begin with an event, decision, or trend and connect it to direct and subsequent consequences. Branches can reach different depths, while optional domains group related first-order effects.

Maps from documents

A document can be the starting point.

KnowMapped identifies concepts and relationships in source material and assembles them into an editable knowledge map. Review the proposed connections, correct them, and develop your interpretation in the map.

Works with PDF, DOCX, ODT, EPUB, PPTX, RTF, TXT, Markdown, and HTML.

Labeled connections

Relationships have direction and meaning.

A line alone leaves the relationship open to interpretation. Labels such as “supports” or “depends on,” together with directional arrows, make the intended meaning explicit.
