Heuristica

Heuristica is an AI-powered concept mapping tool that uses a mind map-like interface to help you learn, research and be creative. It taps into ChatGPT to offer a visual way to absorb and organize information. It can help you learn complex subjects, and you can use it to drill down into a subject with a few clicks.

Among Heuristica's features:

• AI-Powered Concept Maps: Build a visual representation of information using a graphical interface.
• No Prompting Required: Click buttons to explore a subject without having to write a specific prompt.
• Custom Prompts: Use custom prompts to drill down into a subject or search the web.
• Real-Time Results: Get the latest information and references from the web.
• Integrations: Tap into information in Wikipedia, arXiv, Semantic Scholar, PubMed, YouTube, podcasts, news articles and links.
• Flashcards and Content Creation: Create AI-generated flashcards and convert concept maps into summaries, blog posts or essays.
• Multi-Language Support: Build concept maps in multiple languages so you can learn about subjects in other parts of the world.

Heuristica has two pricing tiers:

• Basic: Free, with limited abilities, up to 3 saved concept maps, and the GPT-3.5-Turbo model.
• Professional: $6.99 per month (annual subscription), with premium abilities, up to 50 saved concept maps, and access to a variety of AI models, including GPT-4 and Claude.

Heuristica is for anyone who wants to learn, including researchers, students, businesspeople and anyone who wants to improve their learning and research abilities. Heuristica's customizable prompt buttons and special panels for different subjects make it adaptable to your own interests. Heuristica is based on ChatGPT, so it's subject to the same limitations and risks of producing bogus information. But for those who want to make complex subjects clearer and who want to turbocharge their learning, it's worth a look.
