Frequently Asked Questions

What is an issue tree and when do I use it?01

An issue tree is a hierarchical diagram that breaks a complex problem into its component sub-issues, ensuring every branch is mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive (MECE). Use it when scoping a consulting engagement, structuring a business case, or organizing a root-cause analysis.

Can I use this for McKinsey-style problem solving?02

Yes. Issue trees are a core McKinsey and BCG tool. The generator follows the MECE principle and produces Pricing / Volume / Mix decompositions, cost-structure breakdowns, or any hypothesis-driven framework you describe.

Can I customize the diagram after it is generated?03

Yes. Describe the example and request changes in the chat — the AI adjusts branches, renames nodes, adds sub-issues, or reframes the root question in seconds.

Can I export the diagram?04

Yes. Export as PNG from the editor toolbar, or copy the diagram to paste into presentations and reports.

Is it free to use?05

The first three diagrams are free with no sign-up required. Create an account to save your work and generate unlimited diagrams.
