Generate, explain, fix, and synchronize PlantUML diagrams with AI. Connect AI coding agents through MCP and keep software architecture as your single source of truth.
Hi Product Hunt! I'm Faris, the creator of StartWithUML.
I built StartWithUML after noticing the same problem in almost every software project I've worked on: architecture documentation quickly becomes outdated.
Teams usually start with diagrams, but once development begins, those diagrams are rarely updated. AI coding assistants can read the source code, but they don't understand the original architecture, business flow, or design decisions. Eventually, the diagram, documentation, and implementation drift apart.
I wanted to change that.
Instead of treating UML as static documentation, I built StartWithUML as an AI-native architecture workspace where diagrams become living project knowledge.
With StartWithUML you can:
* Generate PlantUML diagrams from plain text * Explain and review existing diagrams with AI * Automatically fix PlantUML syntax errors * Generate technical documentation from diagrams * Connect AI coding agents through MCP so they can understand your architecture before generating or reviewing code
This is only the beginning. My vision is to evolve StartWithUML into a complete AI Software Delivery Platform, connecting requirements, architecture, documentation, implementation, and AI coding agents into a single source of truth.
I'd love to hear:
* What part of your architecture workflow is the most painful today? * If your coding agent could understand your architecture, what would you want it to do?
Thank you for checking out StartWithUML, and I'm happy to answer any questions! 🚀
the MCP integration is honestly such a smart move, basically turns your UML diagrams into something every coding agent can actually reference in real time. really nice execution.
