## What it is
A browser-based AI application that parses EPUB and PDF ebooks and converts them into chapter summaries, per-chapter mind maps, or a single whole-book mind map. It uses a bring-your-own-key model (Google Gemini, OpenAI, or compatible providers) with all AI requests sent directly from the browser, and results are cached for resumable, offline viewing.

## Use cases
- convert an epub book into a mind map
- summarize a long pdf book with ai
- generate chapter-by-chapter summaries of a textbook
- turn a book into study notes for exam review
- extract the structure of a pdf into an outline
- get an overview of a whole book at a glance
- summarize books with my own gemini or openai key

## When to choose
- You want AI-generated chapter summaries or mind maps from EPUB/PDF files rather than plain text extraction
- You value privacy and want BYOK browser-direct AI calls with no third-party proxy or server storing your book
- You need exportable mind maps that can be edited later in Mind Elixir desktop, unlike NotebookLM's locked-in maps
- You work with large books and want cached, resumable processing so interrupted sessions can continue

## When to avoid
- You need conversational Q&A or RAG-style chatting against your documents instead of structured summaries and mind maps
- You have no AI API key or Mind Elixir account and expect fully free unlimited AI processing
- You need formats beyond EPUB and PDF, such as MOBI, AZW, or DOCX
- You want a server-side or API-driven batch tool for programmatically converting large collections of ebooks
