Visual Schema Designer
Design data models on an interactive canvas with drag-and-drop simplicity. See relationships, constraints, and dependencies at a glance — no YAML editing required.
- Drag-and-drop class creation with property editors
- Smart auto-layout algorithms
- Color-coded groups with collapsible containers
- Real-time relationship visualization with animated edges
- Version comparison with side-by-side diff highlighting
- 10+ canvas themes including dark mode and blueprint
- Canvas export to PNG, SVG, PDF, Mermaid, PlantUML, and more
- Quality scoring with completeness and consistency grades
Visual API Path Authoring
Design every endpoint visually — operations, parameters, request bodies, responses, and security schemes — all on a dedicated developer-focused canvas with HTTP method color coding and real-time OpenAPI validation.
- HTTP method nodes with GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE color coding
- Drag-and-drop parameters, responses, and schema bindings
- Multi-content-type support (JSON, XML, multipart/form-data)
- Inline schema editing with class reference ($ref) binding
- Response status code color bands (2xx, 3xx, 4xx, 5xx)
- Security scheme configuration (API Key, Bearer, OAuth2)
- Smart edge routing with animated data flow visualization
- Auto-generate CRUD operations from existing schemas

Your Design-to-Deployment Workflow
From first schema sketch to production-ready OpenAPI spec in four steps
Design Schemas
Drag classes onto the canvas, define properties and types, and draw relationships between your data models.
Author Paths
Open the Paths Designer to create endpoints, bind schemas to request bodies and responses, and configure security.
Validate & Score
Run real-time OpenAPI validation, review quality scores, and fix issues before exporting your specification.
Export & Ship
Export as OpenAPI YAML/JSON, generate code stubs, or share your API documentation with your team and consumers.
