Getting started

How do I create a semantic network? Type a question or topic into the search bar and click Generate Network. The AI will build an interactive concept map you can explore and expand.

What kinds of questions work best? Open-ended analytical questions work best — things like "What drives political polarization?" or "How does sleep affect learning?". Narrow factual lookups are better served by a search engine.

How do I expand a node? Right-click any concept node to open the context menu. You can expand under different frames (causal, comparative, evaluative, etc.) and apply directed lenses (example, counter, blindspot, context, etc.).

Sharing & saving

How do I share a network? After a network loads, click Share network. It copies a permalink to your clipboard. Anyone with that link can view the same network.

Where is my library saved? If you're signed in, your library is saved to your account and available across devices. Without an account, saved networks stay in your browser only and can be lost if you clear browser data — sharing the permalink is the safest way to preserve a network you don't want to risk losing.

Can I load a network by code? Yes. Paste the 11-character share code (e.g. #Ab3Cd5Ef7Gh) directly into the query bar and press Generate Network.

Reading the graph

What are the Library / Reports / Concept panels? Library — browse your saved networks and click one to load it. Reports — a read-only writeup of the network; General gives a narrative summary, Answers groups claims by pattern (Pro adds further report views). Concept — shows detail and neighbors for whichever node you last clicked. Related — similar public questions you can jump to. Click an active panel button again to close it.

How do I navigate the graph? Scroll to zoom, click and drag to pan. Click a node to open the concept panel. Right-click a node to expand it.

Account & privacy

Do I need an account? No — you can generate and explore networks without one. Signing in with email saves your library permanently and makes it available across devices.

How is my data used? See the Privacy Policy for details. In brief: queries are used to generate networks and may be used to improve the model. No personal information is collected from anonymous users.

Limits & Pro

Is thinksn free? Yes — the core experience is free, with reasonable rate limits to keep the service sustainable.

What will Pro add? A paid Pro tier is in development, aimed at people who need to defend an argument to a skeptical audience — a client, a committee, a reviewer — and want the system to do more of the stress-testing on its own: automated investigation across many rounds without manual clicking, grounding in your own documents, and reports that read the graph back as a tested case rather than a summary. We're aiming for a beta by late 2026.

Why did I get a "Too many requests" error? You've hit the free-tier rate limit. Wait a few minutes and try again.
