Branchora is a private mind map and outline app for turning scattered thoughts into clear, visual plans. Start with one idea, then build branches for work plans, study notes, product thinking, meeting summaries, creative writing, and personal projects. Switch between a visual map and a structured outline when you need a cleaner view. Why Branchora - Create clean mind maps quickly - Organize ideas with tap, drag, pinch, and arrange controls - Use themes including Dopamine, Morandi, Maillard, Macaron, Wabi-Sabi, and Cyberpunk - Keep maps private with iCloud sync across your Apple devices - Export polished PDF files for sharing, study, or work - No Branchora account required - No app server for your map data Branchora is designed for people who think visually but want a calmer, faster tool than heavyweight diagram apps.
