Craig Smith's first impressions of Ayoa 💙
💡 Shout out to Ayoa Mind Mapping platform. I've been tinkering with it this morning and am very impressed. I'll tell you what I like: 🚀 - As well as being a highly visual, easy-to-use tool, the AI integration is cleverly realised: you can ideate in dialogue with AI, such as in the example I've shared in my screenshot. I asked it to generate some ideas for executive functioning strategies to support students in classrooms, and it branched out all these different topics and sub-topics that were all suitably accurate. Then, I can build on those as a foundation. So much more topographical compared with the pure text language conversations of an LLM. 🦄 - I like the neuro-settings where you can adjust some of the accessibility considerations, but also tailor the workflow and responses to some of your own areas of passion. The focus on neurodiversity across the platform is quite lovely. So, that's impressed me today :) I'm always a fan of a good mind map (so too colleagues of mine ping Katie Fleet!) and I can see this being a valuable tool in my toolkit.
