What Lucidchart is

Lucidchart is a diagramming application for mapping processes, planning organizations, and showing technical systems. It supports flowcharts, process maps, org charts, technical diagrams, system architecture diagrams, UML diagrams, ERDs, sequence diagrams, Gantt charts, and C4 models. People can collaborate in real time, and offline editing is available. Lucidchart runs on the web, iOS, and Android, with free signup and a free plan that provides basic diagramming access.

Diagrams can be generated from text prompts using AI, while UML markup can produce sequence diagrams from text. Google Sheets, Excel, and CSV data can be linked to visualizations; conditional formatting highlights patterns, and layers control visibility and hierarchy. Lucidchart imports VSDX, VSD, VDX, Draw.io XML, OmniGraffle flat files, BPMN, and XPDL. Export options include PDF, PNG, JPEG, SVG, VDX, VSDX, JSON, and CSV.

Lucid has more than 100 custom-built integrations. Its Lucid Custom GPT can make editable, shareable diagrams from ChatGPT prompts. The Lucid Suite brings Lucidchart together with Lucidspark for virtual whiteboarding, and Enterprise Shield adds security and granular control. Lucidchart is associated with Lucid Software Inc., founded in 2010 and headquartered in South Jordan, Utah.
