How It Works

1. Import Your Documents

Drag PDFs onto the canvas or use batch import to bring in hundreds of files at once. Each document becomes a visual tile you can arrange spatially.

2. Extract & Connect

Open any PDF to review, highlight key passages, and extract text snippets. Pin snippets to your canvas and draw arrows to show relationships between documents.

3. Build Timelines

Create timeline tiles to map events chronologically. Add dates, descriptions, and link back to source documents. Perfect for case chronology.

4. Export Your Analysis

Export your visual map as PDF or PNG. Generate a connection summary report in Markdown-ready to attach to briefs or share with your team.
