Structure complex questions

Complex ideas become easier when you can see their structure.

Arguments should not live only in a flat document. AXIOVUM separates claims, evidence, objections and unanswered questions while preserving the relationships between them.

The result is calmer than a whiteboard and more spatial than an outline.
