Answer everyday scenarios
Choose what feels most natural in short real-life situations.
MapKAI
Map your knowledge with AI
Answer three everyday questions. See which areas feel active, quiet, or worth exploring next.
No login. No account. Just a quiet starting point.
MapKAI Toolbox
Little tools for learning, thinking, and everyday life.
How it works
Three questions, then a map.
Reveal active lenses
MapKAI shows which knowledge lenses are already active in your thinking.
Choose what to explore next
Use the map as a calm prompt for learning, reflection, or better questions.
What you get
A map, not a label.
Active areas
The lenses you naturally use when thinking through everyday situations.
Quiet areas
Knowledge spaces you may not notice yet, but can explore when useful.
Next steps
Simple routes into stories, practical fields, and learning steps.

Need a structured decision room?
PDC is a separate council-style thinking tool for decisions with trade-offs, disagreement, or timing pressure.
No login. No tracking. No public profile. MapKAI is currently a free knowledge initiative.
About MapKAI
A quiet compass for learning in the AI era.
Discover how you think. Learn across fields. Make better decisions.
What MapKAI Is
Map your knowledge with AI.
It helps scattered learning become visible enough to explore, question, and reflect on.
Mission & Vision
When answers become abundant, direction becomes the real advantage.
Mission
MapKAI helps people discover their active knowledge areas, notice quiet areas, and choose what to explore next in the AI era.
Vision
MapKAI aims to become a personal knowledge compass for the AI era, helping people move beyond narrow professional boundaries, build a broader picture of knowledge, and gradually turn self-awareness into personalized learning paths.
Quiet areas are not weaknesses. They are places worth exploring.
The AI Era Problem
AI can generate infinite answers. But many people still do not clearly understand how they think, what they repeatedly ignore, or where their blind spots are.
Navigate your knowledge before navigating AI.
AI use and transparency
MapKAI combines fixed browser rules, prepared learning material and AI services. Explore results are calculated from your answers and MapKAI rules. AI simulates PDC perspectives and drafts its discussions and summaries; Speaking Studio uses an AI conversation partner; Music cards identify AI-generated songs.
Our transparency approach refers to Article 50 of the EU AI Act: direct AI interaction and content covered by the provision require clear, accessible disclosure at first interaction or exposure. The relevant feature or content needs its own notice.
Origin labels do not certify accuracy, human review or legal compliance. Verify important information and sources; music and other works still need the appropriate rights for sharing.
Why Explore Matters
Explore is not an intelligence test. It is pattern observation, cognitive exploration, and knowledge mapping.
How MapKAI Questions Are Designed
Inspired by UNESCO ISCED-F knowledge classification, MapKAI questions are built around real-world situations, systems, trade-offs, incentives, and everyday reasoning.
They are not designed for memorization. Many questions hold more than one reasonable explanation, so the goal is to notice patterns and build clearer mental maps.
Reflection Philosophy
As people grow older and become more socially adapted, they often receive fewer truly honest observations about themselves.
MapKAI reflections are not judgments. They are structured observations.
Product Boundary
MapKAI does not try to become your final AI. It gives you a quieter starting point for the AI tools you already use.
MapKAI creates the map. Your personal AI helps you explore it more deeply.
Not everything meaningful can be fully measured. But some things become clearer once they are finally visible.

Privacy at MapKAI
MapKAI is low-data by design. For the current experience, you do not need to create an account or provide your name or email. Quiz progress is not linked to a personal profile, and contact is optional.
Low-data by design
For the current experience, no account is required. You do not need to provide your name or email to explore MapKAI.
MapKAI does not require or build a customer profile for the current exploration flow.
We do not use advertising tracking for the current MapKAI experience.
Quiz and reflection data
Quiz progress is not linked to a personal profile. The current exploration result is generated in your browser and can disappear when you leave or refresh.
Raw quiz records are not stored by default. If temporary quality checks are introduced later, records should be anonymized, aggregated, or deleted regularly, preferably within 30 days.
Aggregated statistics may be used to improve questions and site experience if they are not linked to personal profiles.
Contact is optional
If you send a contact message, MapKAI uses it only to respond to you. Contact messages are separate from quiz progress and should be reviewed or deleted periodically.
Please avoid sharing highly sensitive personal information in the message box.
Technical processing
Basic technical logs may exist through hosting and security providers such as Cloudflare.
MapKAI uses browser storage for small product states such as language preference, Founder mode state, and visitor-count continuity. See the Cookies page for more detail.
Future changes
If MapKAI introduces new features, accounts, or data practices in the future, this page should be updated clearly.
Responsible Use
Responsible use
MapKAI helps map thinking, not people. Human judgment remains central.
What MapKAI supports
MapKAI supports reflection, learning, knowledge mapping, and option exploration.
Use it as reflection and learning support, not as professional advice.
What MapKAI does not replace
MapKAI does not replace human judgment.
MapKAI does not provide legal, medical, financial, psychological, or other qualified professional advice.
Important decisions remain your responsibility.
Careful use
Please avoid submitting highly sensitive personal information.
Treat MapKAI outputs as prompts for thought, conversation, and learning direction.
Cookies
Cookies and browser storage
We do not use advertising or tracking cookies for the current MapKAI experience. If this changes, we will update this page clearly and request consent where required.
Current approach
The current code audit did not find advertising scripts, tracking pixels, or third-party analytics tags.
MapKAI uses localStorage for language preference, Founder mode state, a local visitor id used by the visitor counter, and temporary interface state. The audit did not find sessionStorage usage. The repository also includes email-auth endpoints that can set a short-lived login challenge cookie if those endpoints are configured and used; this is not required for the current public exploration flow.
Hosting and security providers may still process basic technical logs when pages or API routes are requested.
Managing storage
You can clear cookies and browser storage through your browser settings. Clearing localStorage may reset language preference, visitor-count continuity, and local interface state.

AI transparency
How AI is used at MapKAI
MapKAI combines fixed rules, prepared material, and AI services. This page shows where a model may be involved, where it is not, and how to read the labels.
Where AI may be involved
PDC is free and open to everyone. AI drafts its council discussions and summaries. The optional example uses content stored in advance.
If live PDC generation fails, the interface reports the error and lets you retry. Prepared PDC content is used only in the demo.
Speaking Studio uses Google Gemini for its AI conversation partner Kai and AI-assisted conversation summaries. Its notices explain what you send to that service.
AI may assist learning material and framework stories. Prepared content describes when material was stored, not whether a person has reviewed it. Automated AI reviews alone are not human review.
AI-generated music
MapKAI Music hosts AI-generated songs. Each currently published song card identifies AI generation before playback. The original uploaded audio and existing embedded information are preserved.
Open MapKAI MusicWhere the current Explore result is not model-generated
The current Explore map and Knowledge Lens result are calculated in your browser from your answers, the question bank, and fixed MapKAI rules. The public result does not call an AI model.
If you copy the optional prompt into your own AI tool, that separate service receives whatever you choose to paste. MapKAI does not send that copied prompt automatically.
Content labels
Calculated in your browser from your answers and MapKAI rules; not a model output.
Dialogue or summaries drafted with a configured AI service; they may be incomplete or wrong.
Written or stored ahead of time for a demo, course, or other site experience; not generated live for this interaction.
EU transparency principles
Article 50 of the EU AI Act provides our transparency reference. Where its disclosure requirements apply, people need a clear, accessible notice at first interaction or exposure. An About statement cannot replace the notice beside the relevant AI feature or content.
Visible source disclosure and an AI-system provider's machine-readable marking duties are separate requirements. A website label alone does not establish that every applicable legal obligation has been met.
Transparency guidance checked on 11 October 2026.
Human judgment remains necessary
Labels describe how a piece of content was produced, not whether it is correct. Check important claims, context, and recommendations yourself. MapKAI outputs are prompts for learning and reflection, not professional advice.
