GitMind review

GitMind leans hardest into AI for studying. The company says it turns text, videos, audio, PDFs, websites and images into summaries and structured mind maps, and also generates flowcharts, UML and class diagrams. The free Basic plan includes up to 10 mind maps or whiteboards, 30 image uploads per mind map, regular format exports, unlimited slide shows and sync across all platforms, with apps for Windows, Mac, iOS and Android and a Chrome extension. Sharing runs through planets: free users can create 1 planet and invite up to 5 members. The paid plan costs $9 a month, or $4.08 a month on the annual plan, and adds unlimited maps, 5 planets with up to 30 members each and HD exports. GitMind credits for separate features are sold on a metered license, so heavy AI use can cost more than the plan price suggests.
