I’ve always enjoyed creating visualizations.

The trouble is, it takes a really long time to create these visualizations: research the topic, collate the data, source the images, design the layout and code the animation.

I’ve long dreamed of a tool that would do all the hard work for me.

So I made one.

Open Web Mind allows you to visualize nodes... nodes that can represent anything: mountains, colours, people, anything.

In plot view, it allows you to control precisely where each node appears along x-, y- and z-axes.

You can create visualization based on any values, from traditional periodic tables to revealing relationships... between elements’ abundance and atomic number, planet’s density and distance from the sun, anything.

Playing around in plot view, you’ll find that Open Web Mind doesn’t just help you see.

It helps you think.
