Inspiration

Create mind maps and visual brainstorms

Functionality

Inspiration is an application that allows you to create mind maps and visual brainstorms to help organise your thoughts and ideas. It allows you to brainstorm and capture ideas quickly using a RapidFire tool. Inspiration contains features that allow symbols and images to be inserted within the mind maps and used to express ideas easily. Inspirations allows users to create and attach audio to mind maps, add hyperlinks, and create your own templates for repeated used. You can personalise mind maps extensively with a variety of images, colours, shapes, arrow styles, and backgrounds. You can export your mind maps directly to Microsoft Word to use in assignments, group projects and work files for example.
