Frequently Asked Questions

Answers about structuring your design knowledge with AI.

How does the AI create the map from my design documents?

The AI analyzes the semantic relationships, headings, and textual context within your uploaded files (PDF, DOCX, etc.) to automatically establish the central theme and create logical, branching connections representing hierarchy.

What file types can the AI read for mapping UI concepts?

We support robust input, including PDF, DOCX, PPTX, and plain text files. Simply upload the file containing your design research or project documentation.

Is this better than using a static UI design template?

Absolutely. Static templates are rigid. CogniGuide’s AI builds a structure personalized to the specific content of your uploaded notes, ensuring relevance and accuracy unmatched by generic structures.

Is the AI generator free to try?
