How to generate an AI Sequence Diagram

Step-by-step guide on generating a sequence diagram

  1. Write a prompt describing a user flow or a data flow as a sequence of events. Structuring the prompt as a numbered list maps well to a sequence diagram. The best prompts are usually at least 3-4 sentences long.
  2. Generate a diagram with the completed prompt.
  3. Edit the diagram with follow-up prompts (this step requires signing in to Eraser).

Tips on generating a sequence diagram

  • If available, instead of writing a prompt from scratch, consider pasting excerpts from existing code (e.g. scripts), call transcripts, or requirements documents.
  • Working with an LLM to create a thoughtful diagram prompt could also save time. Ask it to describe a user flow or data flow as a numbered list.

Who made this and what is Eraser?
DiagramGPT was created by the team at Eraser, leveraging OpenAI's GPT-4. Eraser (eraser.io) is a whiteboard for engineering teams. You can edit your DiagramGPT generated diagrams using Eraser.
How can I share feedback?
We'd love to hear from you. Reach out to us at hello@tryeraser.com, on Twitter (@eraserlabs), or join our Slack community.
What types of diagrams can it draw?
4 types are currently available – flow charts, entity relationship diagrams, cloud architecture diagrams, and sequence diagrams.
Is there an API?
Yes, you can read our API documentation here. Due to LLM costs, the API is only available to Professional Plan teams.
Will my data be used for LLM training?
No. OpenAI nor Eraser will use your data to train AI models. Eraser may analyze your usage to improve and enhance our AI feature.
