The problem

Pain you know too well

These challenges compound over time. The longer they go unaddressed, the more they cost in engineering time and reliability.

No history of architecture changes

Your architecture evolves but there is no record of what it looked like last quarter, last year, or before the big migration.

Cannot compare before and after

After a major change, you cannot easily see what was different. Was that service always there? When was this dependency added?

Architecture reviews lack baselines

Without snapshots, architecture reviews have no baseline to compare against. Progress is subjective.

How it works

Up and running in a few steps

1

Create a release

Snapshot your current C4 model as a named release. Tag it with a version number and description.

2

Continue evolving architecture

Make changes to your C4 model through the visual editor, DSL, or AI discovery.

3

Compare releases

Diff any two releases to see what changed: new elements, removed elements, modified relationships.

4

Track evolution over time

Browse your release history to understand how the architecture evolved and why (with linked ADRs).

Capabilities

Everything this feature does for you

Architecture Snapshots

Capture the state of your C4 model at any point. Named, versioned, and tagged releases.

Release Comparison

Visual diff between any two releases. See added, removed, and modified elements at a glance.

Change History

Full audit trail of architecture changes between releases. Who changed what and when.

Release Notes

Attach release notes and link ADRs to explain why the architecture changed.

Use cases

Where teams use it

01

Quarterly Architecture Reviews

Compare current architecture to the last quarterly release. Measure progress and identify unplanned drift.

02

Pre/Post Migration Comparison

Snapshot before a migration, then compare after to verify all changes were made correctly.

03

Audit Compliance

Provide auditors with versioned architecture snapshots showing the state at any point in time.
