FigSchema - Design database schemas right in FigJam

by
•
FigSchema turns FigJam into a database schema designer. Table cards with typed columns and PK/FK badges, relationships anchored to columns that follow every move, and export to SQL, DBML or docs. Paste CREATE TABLE statements and the diagram builds itself.

Hi PH! I'm Ajay, a product designer, and FigSchema is a tool I designed and built myself.

The problem is one I lived for years. Planning happens on the whiteboard, so we sketched data models in FigJam with plain boxes and connectors. Move one table and the lines point at nothing. And the sketch always drifted from the real schema, because getting SQL meant redrawing everything in an ERD tool.

FigSchema makes the whiteboard and the database the same document:

  • Tables are real cards: typed columns with cross-dialect autocomplete, PK/FK/UQ/AI badges, NOT NULL by default

  • Relationships anchor to the exact column, so lines follow moves, resizes and reorders

  • Crow's-foot cardinality on native FigJam connectors that route around tables on their own

  • Export to PostgreSQL / MySQL / SQL Server / SQLite DDL, DBML, or a Markdown/HTML data dictionary

  • Paste CREATE TABLE statements and the fully linked diagram builds itself (Pro)

  • Seven starter templates, sample-data grids, plus Figma-native multiplayer and undo

Money, stated plainly: the canvas is free and unlimited.

Free export covers schemas up to 10 tables.

Pro is $29 one-time (first 100 licenses, then $49) and unlocks unlimited-size export, import and the data dictionary. No subscription - there are no server costs to justify one.

Launch deal, stated just as plainly: the first 25 purchases this week get Pro for $19 with the code PHLAUNCH at checkout. Same license, same everything, no subscription either. After those 25, the founding price is $29 until the first 100 licenses sell out.

Trust, stated plainly: everything runs inside your file. No account, no telemetry, and the free tier makes zero network calls. Pro contacts exactly one domain: the license check.

If you design APIs or schemas with a team, I'd love to hear what you'd import or export first.
