Looking for free mind mapping software that does not nickel-and-dime you? Most tools offer a "free" plan that is really just a trial in disguise: 3 maps, no collaboration, no export. That is not free. That is a demo.
FlowTogether takes a different approach. Our free tier gives you unlimited mind maps, real-time collaboration with up to 3 people, AI brainstorming features, and PNG export. No time limits. No credit card required. Just sign up and start mapping.
FlowTogether's free tier works great for individuals and small teams. Consider upgrading to Pro ($8/mo) when you need: unlimited collaborators, unlimited AI suggestions, SVG/PDF/Markdown export, version history, or custom templates. There is no pressure to upgrade and no feature degradation over time.
Yes. The free tier is permanent, not a trial. You get unlimited mind maps, collaboration with up to 3 people, 10 AI suggestions per day, and PNG export. No credit card required, no time limits.
The free plan limits real-time collaborators to 3 per map, AI suggestions to 10 per day, and export to PNG only. You cannot access version history, custom templates, or SVG/PDF/Markdown export on the free plan.
Absolutely. There are no restrictions on how you use FlowTogether's free plan. Use it for personal projects, school, freelance work, or your startup.
Never. Your mind maps are yours forever. We do not delete free-tier maps for inactivity, and we do not hold your data hostage to force an upgrade.
FlowTogether monetizes through Pro subscriptions and Enterprise plans. Free users often upgrade when their teams grow or they need advanced features. We believe a generous free tier builds trust and leads to organic growth.
No credit card. No time limit. No catch. Just start mapping.
