Classification Concept Map

AI builds clean hierarchies fast.

Turn any topic into a structured classification concept map with labeled categories and subcategories. Tweak spacing, sizes, and collapse/zoom to present ideas clearly and professionally.

Press Enter to generate. Use + Concept to add or remove nodes.

Why it works for classification

Smart structure, simple controls.

🗂️

Hierarchical grouping

Build multi-level categories and subcategories with clear parent–child links.

🏷️

Labels always visible

Show labels by default and edit text inline to keep concepts unambiguous.

🔎

Zoom and collapse

Enable zoom and collapsible branches to focus on the right depth at the right time.

↔️

Bidirectional layout

Balance branches left and right to reduce scrolling and improve readability.

📐

Spacing and sizing

Tune concept spacing, font size, node size, and link width to fit any canvas.

🎞️

Smooth animation

Set animation duration so changes feel natural during edits and walkthroughs.

How it works

From idea to map in minutes

1

Describe or start

Enter your topic or open the example to see an editable structure.

Example: “Classify renewable energy sources, grid storage, and policy.”

2

Generate with AI

AI proposes a labeled hierarchy tailored to your topic.

Root: Renewable Energy Transition → Clean Generation → Solar PV

3

Edit concepts fast

Use + Concept to add children, rename labels, or remove nodes to match your framework.

Add: Policy & Adoption → Incentives

4

Tweak display & share

Toggle zoom, labels, and collapse; adjust spacing, font size, node size, link width, and animation. Export PNG/SVG, copy a link, or embed.

Use cases

Built for classification and hierarchy work

Education

Teach taxonomies

Explain biological classification, language parts, or historical eras with clear levels and examples.

Research

Ontologies & coding

Organize themes, codes, and constructs for qualitative analysis and literature reviews.

Business

Customer segmentation

Map segments, personas, and product lines to align teams on strategy and scope.

Information Architecture

Content taxonomy

Plan navigation, categories, and metadata for sites, apps, and knowledge bases.

Traditional vs AI

Fewer clicks, clearer maps

Traditional concept mapping

  • Manual box-and-line drawing is slow and error-prone
  • Hard to keep labels readable at different zoom levels
  • Reorganizing branches breaks alignment and spacing
  • No quick way to collapse sections during reviews
  • Inconsistent styles make maps look messy

AI-powered concept mapping

  • Instant draft hierarchy from a short topic description
  • Labels shown by default and optimized for clarity
  • Bidirectional layout keeps structure balanced automatically
  • Collapse/zoom controls reveal the right level of detail
  • Consistent spacing, sizes, and animation for a polished look

FAQs

What is a Classification Concept Map Maker?

It’s an AI-powered tool that builds labeled hierarchies of categories and subcategories. You get a clear concept chart that shows parent–child relationships for fast understanding and communication.

How do I create a classification concept map with AI?

Type a topic, click Generate with AI, and review the proposed structure. Then use + Concept to add or remove nodes, rename labels, and adjust layout controls like spacing and bidirectional orientation.

Can I show or hide labels and collapse branches?

Yes. Use Display Settings to show labels, enable collapse, and turn on zoom. These controls help you present high-level categories and drill into details when needed.

Does it support a bidirectional layout for balanced trees?

Yes. Enable the bidirectional layout in General Settings to distribute branches left and right for compact, readable maps.

Can I import my categories instead of typing them?

You can paste an outline or two-column parent–child pairs from a spreadsheet. The tool maps these into nodes and links you can refine.

Inclusive by design

  • Keyboard-friendly controls for adding and editing concepts
  • Readable default fonts with adjustable sizes and spacing
  • Zoom support to aid low-vision viewing
  • Clear, descriptive labels to help assistive technologies
  • Animations tuned for clarity, not distraction

Privacy and control

  • Your maps stay private unless you choose to share
  • We never sell your data or charts
  • You control links and embeds and can revoke access anytime
  • Download your work or delete it whenever you wish
  • Minimal data is stored to run the service reliably
