Ideate, sketch, and edit diagrams in real time on a voice-first canvas. Speak naturally to build system architectures, flowcharts, and turn ideas into visuals.

Would love to see an export option to PDF or PNG once the diagram is done, sometimes I need to drop the visual into a slide or doc without recreating it. Could make the handoff from voice-to-visual way smoother.
BUD
@ferhat160021 Thanks for the feedback. Actually you can export it as a png or .excalidraw file for now just by instructing BUD to export it for you. But pdf export will be added soon.
A voice-first canvas for diagrams sounds genuinely fresh. One thing that would make it click for me is the ability to undo or branch a conversation, so if I misspoke mid-flow the diagram doesn't get wrecked and I can try a different phrasing without starting over.
BUD
@ceylangrrjlhl Thanks for flagging that up. Will add this functionality in the next version.
Spoke out a quick system design and watched it appear as a clean diagram, which felt kind of magical for someone who hates dragging boxes around. Curious how it handles more complex edits though.
BUD
The voice-first canvas concept is genuinely refreshing for diagramming, which has felt stale for years. Excited to see how the natural language parsing handles ambiguous ideas like "make it connect better" or "show the flow back to auth."

@miranpq1 Thanks! Hope you like it.
Voice-first for diagramming is an interesting bet — most whiteboard tools still assume you're reaching for a mouse first. The real test will be accuracy on technical vocabulary (service names, arrows/relationships) since that's where voice-to-diagram tools usually fall apart on system architecture use cases specifically.
BUD
@cosmicbunny Yep! We've kept the technical vocabulary in our mind while building BUD. Do give it a try.
The voice-first sketching idea is genuinely cool. One thing I'd love to see is a way to easily export the spoken diagram history as text, like a transcript with timestamps, so I can review what I said and turn voice notes into written specs without rewatching the whole session.

@evketzkaraostb Thanks for the feedback. Sure will definitely add that.
