About the Project

Architeezy is a unified model repository for both people and AI agents.

The Problem

In most organizations, each team relies on its own set of tools:

  • Business analysts: ARIS, Business Studio
  • Architects: Archi, Visual Paradigm, Enterprise Architect
  • System analysts: Confluence, XWiki
  • Developers: IDEs, DBeaver, PlantUML, Structurizr
  • QA engineers: Test IT, Zephyr
  • DevOps: NetBox, Terraform

Knowledge transfer typically happens through screenshots and messages:

  • A business analyst documents a process → exports it as an image → embeds it in documentation
  • An architect creates diagrams based on that documentation → exports images → uploads them to Confluence
  • A system analyst writes requirements based on architectural diagrams
  • A developer writes code and designs databases based on textual requirements
  • DevOps provisions infrastructure based on written requests

With this approach, it becomes difficult to answer even basic questions:

  • Which parts of the codebase, APIs, and data models will be affected by a change in this business process step?
  • Which systems depend on a reference dataset that is about to be decommissioned?
  • Through which applications does customer personal data flow, and who has access to it?
  • What infrastructure supports this business process, and how much does it cost?
  • Which processes will stop, and how much data will be lost if this server fails?

Over time, the situation gets worse:

  • Agile development: architecture and requirements become outdated faster than code reaches production
  • Distributed teams and contractors: critical knowledge is often undocumented and lost when people leave
  • AI adoption: rapid code generation without architectural grounding makes systems harder to understand and maintain

What’s needed is a solution that provides a unified, consistent view across teams—and makes it usable for transparent and controlled AI-driven workflows.

The Solution

A unified model repository with the power of an enterprise platform:

  • Centralized model repository with versioning and access control
  • Support for industry-standard notations: ArchiMate, C4, EIP, EPC, VAD, class diagrams, state machines
  • Custom notation builder for domain-specific models (e.g., IT infrastructure, conceptual models)
  • Multiple representations of models: diagrams, tables, and code
  • Alignment with Object Management Group standards

With the usability of modern collaborative tools (like Miro, Figma, draw.io):

  • Simple web interface with real-time collaboration
  • Document editor similar to Notion

Plus:

  • Easy integration with external systems via API
  • Support for Model Context Protocol and a built-in AI assistant
