Reviewer scorecard
“My go-to for system architecture diagrams. The hand-drawn style makes diagrams feel approachable rather than intimidating. Real-time collab works flawlessly.”
“The aesthetic is the differentiator. Every diagram looks friendly and informal which makes it perfect for presentations, blog posts, and documentation.”
“The API design is thoughtful. Integrates well with existing stacks.”
“Simple, fast, free. Does one thing well. The library system for reusable components is useful. Not trying to be Figma and that is a strength.”
“The team ships fast and responds to feedback. Good sign.”
“This fills a real gap in the ecosystem. Worth adopting early.”
