Frequently asked questions
Yes. Mind maps on 2pm.space have no limit on maps, nodes or collaborators, and sharing is not behind a paywall. MindMeister's free plan limits the number of maps.
In both. On 2pm.space every map is a shared document: edits merge automatically and you see collaborators' cursors as they work.
MindMeister has AI map generation in the editor. On 2pm.space there is no generate button; AI agents and MCP clients such as Claude Code can build and edit maps for you.
Not on 2pm.space — share a link with view, comment or edit access, and someone who only reads the map needs no account.
