Draw Agent Studio
Type a sentence like 'draw a seaside lighthouse under moonlight, with a small sailboat and stars' and Draw Agent Studio sketches it on a live canvas you can then keep editing by chat. Follow-up messages move objects, change colors, delete elements, and undo or redo steps, so refining a diagram becomes a conversation instead of a wrestling match with shape handles. The same canvas accepts direct manual work: select and drag shapes, draw freehand with the pen, or drop text onto the page to finish details the model missed. Researchers and writers use it to build flowcharts from a paragraph of method notes, grouping stages, adding quality checks and feedback loops, and restructuring sections on request. Canvases save automatically as you work, and finished pieces export as PNG, JPG, WebP, or SVG images, or as editable Excalidraw files for further hand editing elsewhere. You bring your own model connection, choosing OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Azure OpenAI, Ark, DeepSeek, Kimi, Groq, OpenRouter, Bedrock, Vertex AI, or a local Ollama or OpenAI-compatible endpoint. A built-in connection test sends a real image and verifies recognition and tool calling before you save, and your API keys stay encrypted on the server rather than in the browser.

ExcaliDash
ExcaliDash adds persistent storage, access control, version history, and real-time collaboration to Excalidraw, transforming ephemeral whiteboarding sessions into a managed drawing library your team can rely on. The Node.js/Express backend with React/TypeScript frontend deploys via Docker Compose on port 6767, using Prisma ORM on SQLite for all drawings, users, and metadata. WebSocket-powered collaboration lets multiple users edit the same canvas simultaneously with live cursor presence. Drawing snapshots preserve every revision with visual preview and one-click restore to any previous state. Three authentication modes handle different deployment needs: local email/password for personal use, hybrid mode mixing native credentials with OIDC for gradual enterprise adoption, and enforced OIDC-only for organizations requiring SSO through providers like Authentik or Keycloak. Scoped sharing controls determine whether drawings stay private, shared internally with team members, or accessible via external links without authentication. Collections organize drawings through drag-and-drop grouping, full-text search locates any diagram instantly, and exports use the non-proprietary .excalidraw format ensuring complete data portability. 1,350+ stars since November 2025.
