Mind Elixir is a fast, private mind mapping app for iPhone and iPad. Catch an idea the moment it arrives, shape it into a map, and let AI help you take it further β€” your maps stay on your device. WHY PEOPLE MAP WITH MIND ELIXIR β€’ Built for touch: a dedicated mobile interface with a bottom action bar and a touch-friendly inspector β€’ Undo and redo from the top bar β€” no keyboard needed β€’ Add images straight from your photo library β€’ Hand-drawn branch style, for maps that feel less like diagrams β€’ Work offline: download fonts for offline use and manage your own β€’ Switch between mind map and outline β€” one shared history, so undo and redo work in both PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your mind maps are stored on your device, not on our servers. No ads, no usage tracking. AI WHEN YOU WANT IT Bring your own AI provider β€” OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, OpenRouter or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint β€” and let it expand nodes, suggest branches, or turn a rough outline into a structured map. Mind Elixir also speaks MCP (Model Context Protocol), so AI tools and agents can work with your maps directly. ORGANIZE WITHOUT EFFORT Tag your maps, group them by project, and find anything in seconds. Nodes support rich text, Markdown and LaTeX formulas. FLEXIBLE DATA FLOW Start from DOCX, PPTX, HTML or a web page URL and let AI build the first draft. Sync across devices with your own S3-compatible storage. Export to image, PDF, HTML or plain text whenever you need to share. Terms of Use (EULA): https://desktop.mind-elixir.com/eula Privacy Policy: https://desktop.mind-elixir.com/privacy
