Apparently a version 3.6 is coming in March 2015.
I downloaded Aibase 3.5.9 and have been playing with it. The potential seems high but indeed the learning curve is very intimidating.
I’m stuck right now trying to figure out search. The search function is hard to find, and unless I’m doing something wrong, there’s just a list of results with no preview available.

Let us know how you get on. I still haven’t tried it (sticking with the devil you know, which is still VUE for me), but I’m intrigued by the screenshots, the info chunking concept (I used Freeplane in the past for that), and this statement:
“The printable document canvas can have a side length of 1 km.”
Wow! That’s a whole lot of mapping (and printing)...

That’s funny. A document 1 km on a side (let’s say, a square km) would be about 12 petabytes of data.

I assume your estimate refers to bitmap images. But Aibase is vector-based.

It was just an ironic comment on the 1 km claim
