Diagram Design

• Draws 45 diagram and chart types, from flowcharts to user journeys and 2x2 matrices
• Matches your brand by pulling colors and fonts from your website
• Redraws existing draw.io, Mermaid, or Excalidraw diagrams in a cleaner style
• Sizes diagrams for docs, slides, social posts, or print
• Exports to PNG or SVG when you ask

Typography Scale

• Generates a mathematical scale of text sizes from captions to large headings
• Defines line heights and letter spacing for optimal readability
• Provides font weight and pairing recommendations
• Creates responsive rules so text scales gracefully on mobile devices
• Documents usage guidelines for each text style
