# Archigram

Archigram is an AI architecture diagramming tool for software engineers, platform teams, cloud architects, data engineers, and technical founders.

## What Archigram Does

- Converts plain-English system descriptions into editable diagram source.
- Supports Mermaid, PlantUML, and BPMN workflows.
- Renders diagrams live while the source code remains editable.
- Exports diagrams as SVG or PNG.
- Creates shareable diagram links and public gallery examples.
- Provides a CLI and MCP server for local automation and AI-agent workflows.

## Best-Fit Use Cases

- Software architecture diagrams
- System design interview and review diagrams
- Cloud architecture diagrams
- Microservices and event-driven architecture
- Data pipeline and ML pipeline diagrams
- API sequence diagrams
- Database ER diagrams
- Business process diagrams
- Documentation and pull request diagrams

## Audience

Archigram is best for engineers and technical teams that want diagram source they can edit, review, share, and keep with documentation.

## Supported Diagram Formats

- Mermaid: sequence, flowchart, class, state, ER, Gantt, mindmap, Git graph, timeline, architecture-beta, and more.
- PlantUML: sequence, use case, class, activity, component, and deployment diagrams.
- BPMN: process modeling with BPMN 2.0 XML/SVG export.

## Pricing

The core studio is free to start. See `/pricing.md` for machine-readable pricing details.

## Positioning Summary

Archigram is a code-first AI diagram generator for architecture work. It is different from drag-and-drop diagramming tools because the diagram remains editable as source code and can be shared, exported, or reviewed like other engineering artifacts.
