TalkMap!

Features
Read full description

TalkMap helps you prepare, organize, and consult speech outlines as simple, visual, and practical mind maps. Instead of writing a full script that can be hard to follow, create a structured outline with keywords, short ideas, and clear branches. Each idea becomes a node that you can move, edit, color, collapse, or expand depending on the way you prepare. TalkMap is designed for anyone who wants to speak naturally from a clear outline: talks, presentations, teaching, meetings, public speaking, personal study, or structured notes. Create your outline, organize your thoughts, then switch to Stage Mode to consult your map in a read-only view during your presentation. Stage Mode uses a comfortable dark interface and includes a built-in timer to help you stay aware of your speaking time. Key features: • Create outlines as visual mind maps • Organize ideas into nodes and sub-ideas • Quickly edit each idea • Move nodes visually on the canvas • Use colors to distinguish sections • Collapse branches to simplify your view • Use the Outline panel to browse your structure • Present with a read-only Stage Mode • Track your speaking time with the built-in timer • Automatic local saving • Import and export outlines as JSON files • Import outlines from Word DOCX files • Clean, modern interface with dark mode support TalkMap works locally: your outlines are saved on your device. You keep a simple, personal workspace for preparing talks without depending on an online account. Whether you are preparing a speech, a presentation, or a structured talk, TalkMap helps you turn your ideas into a visual outline that is easier to remember and more comfortable to use.
