- Bridge Requirements and Design: Seamlessly transition from high-level use case descriptions to detailed models of behavior, structure, and data.
- All-in-One Tool: Manage scope, actors, use cases, diagrams, and test cases within a single, integrated studio.
Getting Started & Core Workflows
Go from idea to a full software design in a few simple steps.
Define the Scope
Begin by filling out the "Scope Description" form, detailing your system's name, purpose, and audience.
Identify Actors and Use Cases
Add the people and systems that will interact with your system (Actors) and the high-level goals they will achieve (Use Cases).
Generate a Description
Select a use case and click the "Generate" button. The AI will produce a detailed description in the editor.
Generate a Behavior Diagram
With the same use case selected, click "Generate Diagram" to instantly create an Activity Diagram based on the description.
Generate a Report
Select "Full SDD" from the report list and click "Generate Report". A full document containing all your work will be created.
Creating a Detailed Use Case Specification
Select a use case, click "Generate", and the AI will populate the markdown editor with a full specification. Review and make manual adjustments as needed.
Modeling System Behavior (Activity Diagram)
Ensure you have a detailed description for your selected use case, then navigate to the "UC Behavior" tab and click "Generate Diagram".
From Requirements to Design to Testing
Go to the "UC MVC" tab and identify Model, View, and Controller objects. Then, generate a sequence diagram and a full set of test cases.
Who is it for?
- Business Analysts: To capture, refine, and document system requirements in a structured and visual way.
- System Analysts and Designers: To translate requirements into detailed technical designs, including behavioral and static models.
- Software Architects: To define and visualize the system's architecture, including MVC layers and data models.
- Project Managers: To monitor the completeness and progress of the requirements and design phases.
Tips & Best Practices
- Start Broad, Then Refine: Begin by defining your full scope and listing all actors and use cases before diving deep into generating detailed descriptions.
- Generate, Then Edit: Use the AI generation as a starting point. Always review and refine the output to match your specific needs.
- Use the Dashboard: Periodically check the Project Dashboard to identify gaps in your project.
- Keep Descriptions Focused: When writing or generating a use case description, keep it focused on the specific goal of that use case.
