Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about text to diagram, in one step

How is this different from Mermaid or PlantUML?

Those turn a syntax you must learn into a rendered chart. Here the input is ordinary prose — the AI decides the components, connections, layout, and icons. You get an editable canvas rather than a static render, so the 20% the AI got wrong takes seconds to fix instead of a syntax hunt.

What kinds of diagrams does text-to-diagram work best for?

System and data architectures: services, databases, pipelines, cloud components, and the flows between them. It is not a flowchart or slide tool — the payoff is highest where real infrastructure with real names needs to be drawn accurately.

Can I keep talking to refine the diagram?

Yes — follow-up instructions like "group the AWS parts", "add a cache between API and DB", or "label the async edges" edit the existing diagram rather than starting over. Iterating in text is the entire workflow.

Can other AI tools drive this too?

Yes — Datadef ships an MCP server, so Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client can generate and edit diagrams from a conversation or straight from your codebase, and export PNGs back into the chat.
