What is Heuristica?
Heuristica is an AI-powered learning platform built around concept maps. Users bring in a link or file, such as a YouTube video, PDF, podcast episode or article, and the platform reshapes it into formats like flashcards with spaced repetition, quizzes, study notes, mind maps and chat.
Concept maps can be enriched with resources from sources such as Wikipedia, arXiv, Semantic Scholar and YouTube, and then converted into study materials or reused for classwork and presentations. The platform offers AI chat with several models, including GPT, Claude, Gemini and Qwen, along with custom prompts, saved instructions and sharing.
A free Basic plan allows up to 3 saved concept maps with limited functionality. The Professional plan is listed at $5 per month when billed yearly at $59.99 and adds more models and larger limits.
