When to use Chat to Diagram

Deep dive

Chat mode is the antidote to one-shot AI generation. Instead of guessing what you meant, the AI asks 2-3 clarifying questions — who are the actors, what are the events, is the call synchronous or asynchronous — before drawing anything.

When the AI does draw, it also lists any assumptions it made in a confirmation card. If it added a return arrow you did not describe, an actor you did not mention, or a branch you did not intend, click Reject and the diagram redraws without that element.

Chat mode is best for complex flows where a one-shot prompt would miss important details — a login flow with edge cases, a sequence diagram with multiple services, a state machine with lifecycle transitions. Reach for it when you want the AI to help you think through what to draw, not just execute a prompt verbatim.

Everything else is the same as Quick mode — the same seven diagram types (flowchart, sequence, ERD, class, state, mindmap, Gantt), the same free tier, the same SVG / PNG / Markdown / OPML export. You can also mix the two: start with Quick to sketch a first draft, then switch to Chat to iterate on it. Both modes share the same underlying AI diagram generator.
