ChartCraft
ChartCraft is an AI-powered diagram generator that converts plain English descriptions into structured diagrams such as flowcharts, ERDs, BPMN, sequence, class, and state diagrams. Rather than acting as a traditional drawing application, ChartCraft parses natural language input and compiles it into a visually laid-out diagram, automatically positioning elements and applying appropriate notation. The platform supports six core diagram grammars and can infer the correct type from the user's description, while allowing manual overrides. Diagrams can be exported as SVG or PNG, making them suitable for documentation, presentations, and system design.
