Once you’ve added your focus question and completed your brain dump, it’s time to expand your map using Contextminds' AI-powered suggestions and search features. This phase is about exploring relevant information, discovering new angles, and building a deeper context around your topic.
1. Use the "Search" tab to explore suggestions
With your map open, go to the left-hand "Search" sidebar and start reviewing suggestions, which are categorized by item types. For more details about each item type and how to use them effectively, see the article How to use contextual suggestions.
2. Track and Structure Emerging Context
As your map expands, try to loosely group related items in the same area of the canvas. This helps maintain clarity and sets you up for the next phase—reduction and structuring.
