Describe your system in words, get a diagram you can edit
Describe actors, steps and relationships in a sentence and receive a structured, editable diagram instead of drawing boxes by hand.
Supports the notations software teams actually use — UML class and use-case diagrams, sequence diagrams, flowcharts, BPMN process maps, C4 architecture views and mindmaps.
Diagrams are stored as readable text notation, which makes them easy to diff, review and keep in version control alongside the code.
Keep chatting with the assistant to add participants, split flows or restyle the render without starting the diagram over.
AI diagrams and technical design docs built from your code and systems
Generate architecture diagrams, flowcharts, sequence diagrams, and BPMN from a text prompt, code, Terraform, or an uploaded PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Draw.io, or Visio file.
Build interactive maps that sync with cloud accounts, repositories, and internal catalogs so the picture stays close to the real environment, with drill-down from org level to a single container.
Paste code or connect private and public Git repositories, Confluence, Notion, VS Code, and GitHub to keep diagrams grounded in actual implementation.
Run the agent toolkit in your own infrastructure under an MIT license and let MCP-compatible clients create, search, update, and export diagrams with OAuth or API tokens.
