If you can't engage your audience, you can't influence them. Kumu makes it easy to create immersive maps that win hearts AND minds.
There are far too many obstacles in your way already — your tool shouldn't be one of them.
All maps require guidance to be fully understood. In Kumu, every map, element, connection and loop can include rich narratives supported by videos, images, tags and attributes.
Don't worry though - complex maps don't need to be overwhelming. Use selector links within your narratives to guide readers through the map, and our filter and focus features to unveil your map one step at a time.
Store key facts and attributes on elements and connections and use perspectives to bring the data to life as decorations on the map. Use scales to size or color automatically based on data like leverage, status, influence, and more.
Every map, element, connection and loop can be backed by rich narratives supported by videos, images, tags and attributes.
Kumu's focus feature allows you to start with a single factor or connection and walk out step by step. Keep your audience engaged and avoid the panic that comes with unveiling a complex map all at once.
Hover over any element, connection, or loop to showcase the items directly related to it and mute the rest. This feature is great for drawing attention to specific items during presentations.
Loops have their own profiles so you can provide detailed narratives of the dynamic. Hover over the label to showcase the elements and connections related to the loop.
Don't worry, we've got you covered. Kumu has built in support for connection delays and pre / post labels.
Map solo or invite your entire team to help. Solving tough problems is a team sport.
Once you've built a great map, we've made it easy to share it anywhere on the web. Embeds are fully interactive and can be easily added to your blog or website with just two lines of code.
