ArchitectAI
Turn constraints into a reviewable architecture board.
Before you write code, get system diagrams, flows, and chaptered build steps you can critique, refine, and export.
Early version. Building toward one workspace: idea → architecture, flows, and the steps to ship.
What it does
ArchitectAI is a chat-driven whiteboard for software architecture. You write a plain request — stack preferences, constraints, product goal — and it returns a structured blueprint, then renders that blueprint as diagram frames on an Excalidraw canvas.
- System diagrams — services, data stores, auth, and how requests move between them.
- Flow and sequence views — upload pipelines, job runners, webhook paths, UI → API → DB.
- Build chapters — ordered steps with concrete commands next to the matching diagram.
How it helps
Start from a drawable plan, not a blank canvas
Instead of opening Excalidraw and inventing boxes from memory, you get a first-pass architecture you can critique and reshape in minutes.
Keep the diagram and the build notes together
The canvas shows structure. The docs panel lists stack choices, chapter goals, and shell commands. You are not copy-pasting between a chat and a drawing tool.
Refine the plan, then export it
Follow up to patch the architecture without wiping your board. Download Markdown, blueprint JSON, and Excalidraw when you are ready to share.
Stay local while you iterate
Named boards autosave in your browser. No account required for the local workspace. Bring constraints (scale, stack, timeline) before you generate.
How you use it
- 01
Open a board
Start a named board session. Create multiple projects and switch between them anytime.
- 02
Describe the product and constraints
Example: “Auth + Postgres web app for an MVP in 6–10 weeks. Prefer Next.js. Avoid Kafka.”
- 03
Review, refine, export
Chat streams the plan. Docs and the canvas update together. Check risks, refine in place, then download the plan package.
What you should expect
ArchitectAI designs and documents. It does not scaffold your repo, deploy your app, or invent proprietary APIs. Treat the output as a strong draft architecture for developers — then validate stack choices against your real constraints.
Good for
- Greenfield product architecture
- Explaining a system to collaborators
- Breaking a build into ordered chapters
- Iterating diagram + notes in one place
Not for
- Generating production code end-to-end
- Realtime multiplayer whiteboarding
- Cloud sync or team accounts (MVP is local)
- Replacing domain review with an expert
