What is DiagramGPT?

DiagramGPT is a free text-to-diagram tool made by the team behind Eraser, a documentation and diagramming product for engineering teams, using OpenAI's models. You describe a process or system in plain English, a nested list or a code snippet, and it draws a diagram without needing an account to generate one. It supports five diagram types: BPMN, sequence, cloud architecture and entity relationship diagrams, plus flowcharts. To keep the result, click Save and Edit Diagram, which opens it in Eraser where you can refine it with diagram-as-code, the visual editor, or further AI prompts, and export to PDF, PNG, SVG or Markdown. Eraser's paid plans add API access, private files, SAML SSO and an MCP server for agents in Claude, Cursor, VS Code and ChatGPT. Eraser pricing starts free; Starter is $15 per member per month billed annually ($20 monthly) and Business is $45 ($60 monthly).
