The free tier caps you at five diagrams monthly and one repository. Beyond that? You'll pay $19 per month for Pro or $50 per seat for Teams.
Staring at a massive codebase is painful. You're trying to figure out where everything connects. CodeViz generates architecture diagrams automatically—it analyzes your code and creates multi-level maps. These follow the C4 model (context to container to component to code level). Ask questions in plain English. Get contextual views of specific workflows or data flows.
CodeViz works across major programming languages. It keeps documentation synced with your actual code. Someone opens a PR? You can visualize exactly what changed instead of mentally reconstructing impact from diffs.
Picture this: a backend engineer inherits a microservices mess. They ask "show me the authentication flow" and get a diagram linking back to source. Edit these diagrams—they stay connected to the codebase.
Real-time collaboration requires Teams plan. Cross-repository visualization does too (if you're dealing with multiple codebases). Export everything to Mermaid or draw.io or PNG. Embed diagrams in Notion and Confluence. Store versions in Git so architecture updates go through the same review process as code.
C4 and UML standards mean you're not learning some proprietary diagram language. CodeViz integrates with VS Code and GitHub and Jira and Slack. Over 70k developers use it apparently.
The promise? Saving ten hours monthly by not manually drawing boxes that go stale immediately.
