Real screen recording · a PDF here; Word imports the same way

Drop the file in. .docx or .odt — or PDF, a caption file, or pasted text. Teams and Meet transcripts arrive as .docx, so those import directly too.

AI reads the content. The decisions, the numbers, the owners, the open questions — not a table of contents in a fan shape.

Sort it, don't just read it. Name fields like Owner or Due date and the AI fills them on every topic. Filter, restructure, export anywhere.

Questions people ask

Which document formats can I import?

Word (.docx), OpenDocument text (.odt), PDF, subtitle and caption files (.vtt, .srt), and plain text or Markdown pasted straight in. A PDF with a real text layer is read as text; a scanned one falls back to reading the pages as images. Meeting transcripts are the non-obvious case: Microsoft Teams and Google Meet both export one as .docx, so the file you already have imports directly — see transcript to mind map for what to name your fields.

Does it just turn my headings into branches?

No — that's what most document-to-mind-map tools do: a table of contents in a fan shape, and if the headings were vague, so is the map. Atlas Red reads the content: the decisions, the numbers, the owners, the open questions. A specification becomes the constraints it imposes; a meeting write-up becomes what was decided and what wasn't; a research paper becomes its claims, not its section titles.

What are fields, and why would I set them?

Structured values on every topic — Owner, Due date, Status, Risk, whatever your work needs. Name them before the import and the AI fills them in as it reads, so the map sorts and filters rather than only reads: every open item with no owner, everything due this month, every high-risk branch. Up to 20 fields, or none. You can also give a sentence or two of focus telling the import what the map should be about, and it follows it.

Can I control how big or detailed the map is?

Yes — overview for roughly 15 topics, balanced for around 40, detailed for around 100. That choice is about usefulness: a 100-topic dump of a two-page memo is worse than a 15-topic map of it.

Is there a limit on document length?

200,000 characters — a long report or a short book. Over that the import refuses with a clear message rather than silently dropping the end, and you can import a section at a time.

What does a document import cost?

You pay what the model costs, and the app shows it per job: a long report or a full meeting transcript usually costs 10–30¢ at the Balanced setting, a page or two a few cents, Detailed more again. Every new account starts with $1 of trial credit, valid 30 days, no credit card. After that, prepaid packs with no subscription and no expiry — or, with a Pro license, your own API key at no markup. Failed jobs are never charged.
