Idea mapping

Ideas linked by relation.

Items as nodes and their relationships as edges.

What it does

Behaviours, not fields. Choosing between two modules is choosing between these.

No single centre, so relationships in more than one direction survive rather than being flattened.

The useful discovery is which two ideas connect, and that is what the edges are for.

Strength of connection is recorded, so a weak link is not read as a strong one.

How it works

  1. 1

    Ideas are captured as they come, with no obligation to place them.

  2. 2

    A connection is recorded when somebody notices one, which is usually later.

  3. 3

    The map is read for which two things connect rather than for the ideas themselves.

  4. 4

    No single centre, so relationships in more than one direction survive.

Best for

Showing how things connect: who knows whom, what depends on what.

Not the right choice for

Answering a precise question. A graph is for noticing, not measuring.

What a row holds

Every field, and what the agent listens for to fill it — which is the difference between a page you type into and one that fills itself.

Connects totextAnother idea it relates to. This is what makes it a map rather than a list.
StrengthchoiceStrong or Medium. Coarse on purpose — precision here is invented.

What it does not do

A module chosen for something it cannot do costs more than one that was never offered.

  • Layout is a fixed ring rather than force-directed, so it stays referable but does not cluster meaningfully.
  • Connections are one-directional as recorded, and nothing infers the reverse.
  • Strength is two values. Anything finer would be false precision on a judgement.
  • Past about eight ideas the picture stops helping and the text list does the work.

Before it works

What you have to provide, if anything.

  • Nothing.
  • Use Mind map instead when the subject has an obvious single root.

In practice

A team weighing three growth directions.

“Wholesale, subscriptions and café partnerships — how do these relate?”
What was said to the agent

What the agent built

A field of ideas with the connections between them, including strengths.

What changed

Packaging at volume sat between two directions that had been treated as unrelated. It became the first thing worked on.

Better with

These do a different job on the same data. An agent can have all of them.

Mind mapLive

One topic needs breaking down and the breakdown is naturally hierarchical.

Research boardLive

You are gathering evidence over time and need to keep hunches visibly separate from things you actually know.

Decision logLive

Decisions get revisited, and nobody can remember whether an option was already considered and dismissed.

Questions

What data does the Idea mapping page use?

It reads idea records the agent has collected. Ideas linked by relation. Nothing has to be imported first — the page appears once there is something to show.

Do I have to build or configure it?

No. You describe what you need in a sentence and the agent chooses the view and fills it. Custom pages exist for the cases no built-in view covers, and those are reviewed before they go live.

When is a graph the wrong choice?

Answering a precise question. A graph is for noticing, not measuring. It is best for: showing how things connect: who knows whom, what depends on what.

Does it stay up to date?

Yes. The page is a view over the data rather than a copy of it, so anything the agent learns afterwards shows up without a rebuild or a re-import.
