Use Value Stream Map Template with AI

The AI helps you create and customize your value stream map in two ways:

You can describe what you need in plain text, and the AI will create a template based on your description. Or upload existing files - the AI will analyze them and convert the content into a structured value stream map.

After creation, you can modify the value stream map through simple text commands. Add or remove items, rearrange the layout, update text, or change the structure. The AI understands natural language instructions and maintains proper formatting.

For larger value stream maps, start with the basic structure and add details gradually. The AI keeps track of changes and ensures everything stays organized. If you need adjustments, simply describe what you want to change, and the AI will update the template accordingly.
