A diagramming tool crafted to visualize software architecture

Using general-purpose diagramming tools can feel like coding on Google Docs. Terrastruct is designed to handle complexity, with a feature suite tailored to software engineers like you.

An IDE for diagrams

Modern features in code editors are a massive boost to productivity. We've integrated those ideas into Terrastruct, saving you time when it comes to creating and maintaining diagrams. Feel how much faster you go with features like:

Linting

Don't worry about pixel-perfect precision. Focus on what matters, and let our Linter take care of the house-cleaning, like finding optimal connection routes.

Autolayout refactor

Scope increases and requirements change — so will your diagrams. Instead of starting over, just add what you need and click "Refactor" to see arrangements you'll love.

Snippets

Prefer using text to diagram? With our simple yet expressive DSL, create full diagrams without ever leaving the keyboard. Our algorithms are tuned to how engineers actually draw diagrams — not squiggly lines everywhere.

Designed to handle abstractions

Capture complexity

Most diagramming tools out there are designed for a breadth of use cases. But engineering systems are orders of magnitude more complex than HR flowcharts.

Terrastruct is custom built for one use case. This means first-class mechanisms to help you wrangle complexity. Split up diagrams by layers of abstraction, and explore scenarios step by step (e.g. what happens when this load balancer goes down).

Sync with your environment

Integrate your data

If you're using diagrams for documentation, most of what you want to represent probably exists somewhere. Maybe it's a server on AWS, or a developer on Github. That's not very DRY to recreate each of them.

With Terrastruct, you can integrate real system data. Have access to your entire catalog of cloud resources that can be moused over to show live metadata ("how much is this instance costing us?"). Or integrate your database — Terrastruct will generate beautiful diagrams of schema relations with dependencies filled in, keep them up to date, and preserve change history.

Terrastruct helps software teams around the world realize the full potential of visual documentation

"We have a Miro license and... it does a million things I don’t need, and doesn’t do the few things that are killer features of Terrastruct... Miro is like a supercharged whiteboard, but I want a dynamic, zooming blueprint stack. Miro can’t do it any more than Lucidchart can. ... cannot compete with the core features of Terrastruct."

"Wow, really impressed at how much better existing diagrams are once ported to Terrastruct. Makes everything way clearer. Like I've just gone through too many moments of 'Ah whatever you get the point', when diagramming/fighting to diagram on other tools. Terrastruct just works."
