Brainode Just Leveled Up: Discover the New Importers, System Prompts, and Smarter Tools
Big news from the Brainode team! As of June 9, 2025, Brainode has undergone a major upgrade — sharper, faster, and more powerful than ever. This update isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s packed with features that make creating, researching, and organizing your ideas smoother and more intuitive. If you’re serious about mind mapping, knowledge management, or brainstorming, you’ll want to see what’s new.
Next-Gen Mind Map Creator with Smart Importers
Creating a mind map from scratch is useful, but sometimes you need to import knowledge from elsewhere. Brainode’s new importers make this process effortless, allowing you to bring in data from the web, videos, or research papers seamlessly.
Page Scraper: Your Content-Extraction Sidekick
Just paste any URL, and Brainode’s Page Scraper kicks into gear. It extracts the most important content and organizes it into a structured mind map. This feature is perfect for visualizing key takeaways from blog posts, wiki pages, research papers, and more.
Blog posts: Visualize main ideas and perspectives
Wiki pages: Break down definitions, timelines, and branches
Research papers: Extract abstracts, results, and methods
Public pages: Summarize landing pages, case studies, or knowledge bases
Press releases: Outline announcements and implications
Product pages: Compare features, specs, and reviews
For example, drop in a paper from arXiv or PubMed. Brainode will organize it into sections like Summary, Methodology, Results, and Citations. Or paste a Wikipedia entry for a quick, editable concept map.
Notion Importer: Sync and Structure Instantly
If you use Notion, this feature is a game-changer. Sync your workspace, and Brainode will convert pages into mind maps while preserving the outline format. It’s perfect for brainstorming, content planning, or team documentation.
YouTube Importer: From Video to Visual Map
Paste a YouTube link, and Brainode will transcribe the video, extract the key ideas, and structure everything into a browsable mind map. Ideal for educational videos, interviews, or breakdowns that benefit from visual structuring.
Powerful Research with Prompt-to-Map Builder
Ever wanted to start with a simple question and get a full research map? Now you can. Enter a question like “How do Apple's WWDC 2025 AI updates impact developers?” and Brainode will:
Search live sources and analyze coverage
Organize insights into key areas such as New APIs, Device Integration, and Developer Reactions
Present a structured, comprehensive map
This feature acts like a research assistant that’s always up-to-date, giving you real-time insights without the hassle.
Upcoming Features for Premium Users
Brainode is always evolving. Soon, premium members will access:
PDF Importer: Upload academic papers or whitepapers and turn them into editable maps
File Uploads: Drop in files, and Brainode will process and organize content automatically
These additions will unlock even more workflows, making Brainode a true all-in-one knowledge hub.
Customize Your Mind Maps with System Prompts
Want your mind maps to think like someone specific? Now you can. By setting a System Prompt, you define the personality, logic, and tone of your map. Want it to think like a startup founder, philosopher, or Nikola Tesla? Just write your prompt in the side panel, use the Smart Rewriter for polishing, and activate it.
Every node generated will follow your chosen personality style, making your maps more aligned with your vision.
“Think like Nikola Tesla — visionary, technical, poetic.”
Redesigned UI for Better Control
The dashboard now features a minimalist layout, faster navigation, and visual previews. Whether you manage five or fifty projects, accessing and organizing your mind maps has never been easier. The new table view consolidates all maps with titles, creation dates, and actions for quick management.
Enhanced Writing and Navigation Tools
If you struggle with phrasing, the Smart Rewriter helps improve your prompts and node content for clarity and style. Plus, keyboard shortcuts enable you to navigate, create, and toggle views seamlessly, keeping your workflow smooth.
