Flexible Visual Representation
Switch between graphics view and card view for every object. Present structure clearly or focus on content.
Card view is ideal for cases where text is difficult to fit into a graphic object, such as a decision object in a flowchart diagram, etc.
Smart Line Connectors with Manual Control
Automatic line anchor points save time and when precision matters, you can manually select the anchor side for perfect diagram layout.
Themes & Custom Styling
Change the look of your diagrams instantly with dark, white or handwritten themes. Customize colors for graphics and objects to keep your models readable and visually consistent.
Notes with Markdown Support
Add rich descriptions, tables and selected HTML tags to keep analysis, documentation and diagrams together in one place.
Designed for Organized Modeling
Organize complex diagrams with Subject Areas, Swim Pools and Swim Lanes — ideal for process modeling, system design and analysis.
