Heuristica

Visual Learning and Research Using AI Concept Maps & Mind Maps

Freemium

Description

Heuristica assists students, teachers, and researchers in exploring complex subjects through visual learning aids. It leverages AI models like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Llama to generate interactive concept maps and mind maps on an infinite canvas. This allows users to visualize connections, organize information, and expand upon ideas effectively.

The platform enables users to integrate knowledge from various sources, including academic databases (arXiv, PubMed, Semantic Scholar), Wikipedia, YouTube, news articles, podcasts, and uploaded PDF files. Based on the organized information within the concept maps, Heuristica can generate various study materials such as flashcards, quizzes, notes, summaries, and essays. It also offers personalization features like interactive chat with the map, custom prompts, and multilingual support to tailor the learning or research experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Heuristica work?

Heuristica uses Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT or Claude. It allows interaction via buttons instead of writing complex prompts, helping users explore and learn by visualizing information in a node-based interface rather than a linear chat format.

What are the advantages of using Heuristica?

Heuristica uses a node-based visual interface for non-linear exploration of subjects, potentially leading to unexpected discoveries. It simplifies interaction with AI through button clicks, requiring no prompting knowledge.

What are the benefits of a Professional Subscription?

A Professional subscription provides access to more capable AI models (like GPT-4o), integrations with Semantic Scholar, arXiv, news, podcasts, YouTube, PDF uploads, map editing, custom prompts, and premium generation features like social media posts.
