Architecture diagrams that check themselves
Claril is an open-source AI architecture-intelligence workbench. Draw BPMN, Sequence, and C4 on a polished canvas; a deterministic inspector finds deadlocks and unreachable steps; an AI co-editor proposes edits you approve; and comments and @mentions keep your team in the loop.

Deadlock detected
Parallel gateway join never completes. Quick-fix available.
Capabilities
Deterministic first. AI that actually edits.
The inspector is the moat: structural correctness you can trust because it is computed, not guessed. The AI layer is progressive enhancement on top.
Deterministic inspector
A rules engine — not a model — finds deadlocks, unreachable steps, and soundness violations. Fly-to the offending element and apply a quick-fix.
AI co-editor✦
Generate a diagram from a prompt, chat grounded on the inspector findings, and have the AI propose concrete edits you review — approve, roll back, or keep refining.
Collaboration
Threaded comments anchored to any element or the whole diagram, @mentions of teammates, and an in-app notification bell. Works solo or across a team.
BYOK, provider-agnostic
Bring your own key for Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Mistral, Ollama, or OpenRouter. Switch models per session; your keys and data stay on your infra.
Asset Catalog
A CMDB-style catalog of custom object types and assets binds diagram elements to real services — and grounds the AI in what actually runs.
Versioning & diff
Auto and named versions. Compare revisions with a visual diff on the canvas and restore any point in time.
Export anywhere
Download the diagram as portable .bpmn, or export a PNG or PDF from the top bar to drop into docs and reviews.
CLI & MCP lint
Run the same inspector in CI or wire it into agents over MCP. Catch structural problems before they reach review.
How it works
From sketch to sound in three steps
Draw
Model your process or architecture in BPMN, Sequence, or C4 on a fast, polished canvas.
Inspect
The deterministic inspector flags deadlocks, unreachable steps, and soundness issues in real time — with quick-fixes.
Let AI edit
Ask the co-editor to generate, document, or fix it. Review each proposed edit, then approve, roll back, or keep refining.
Open source and self-hostable by design
Claril is built for teams that can't hand their architecture to a SaaS. Everything runs where you run it, AI included.
AGPL licensed
Read the source, fork it, contribute back. No black boxes in your toolchain.
Run on your infra
Self-host the full workbench. Diagrams and metadata never leave your network.
Bring your own key
Inference goes straight to your provider with your credentials — no middleman.
