About
Mind mapping software with a real document in every node. Local-first, free on this device, with optional cloud and on-premise for teams that need them.
Features
- Problem
- Mind-map nodes may not hold the full work.
- How it works
- Users can write a full document inside a node and read it as an article.
- Result
- Ideas can move from map to prose without maintaining a duplicate document.
- Why
- The node and document are part of the same tree rather than separate copies.
- Problem
- Different tasks call for different ways to view a hierarchy.
- How it works
- Users can switch between map, outline, and document views of the same nodes.
- Result
- Users can reorganize or read their work in the view that suits the task.
- Why
- Each view supports spatial thinking, listed navigation, or article reading while reflecting the same tree.
- Problem
- Work may need to stay private or be hosted on different infrastructure.
- How it works
- Maps can stay in the browser, be stored in Orinami's cloud, or be hosted on the user's own servers.
- Result
- Individuals and teams can choose where their maps are stored.
- Why
- The product offers local, cloud, and on-premise options.
- Problem
- Teams need to work together on shared maps.
- How it works
- Personal and Team plans include cloud maps and live collaboration; plans also offer invitations and guest viewer links.
- Result
- Collaborators can access and work with shared maps.
- Why
- Cloud collaboration lets people work on maps together.
- Problem
- Some users want external tools to work with their maps.
- How it works
- Personal, Team, and on-premise plans provide MCP access for Cursor, Claude, and other MCP clients.
- Result
- Supported MCP clients can read and edit maps accessible to the account.
- Why
- The site describes API-key access to maps through an MCP endpoint.
