Cheers Producthunters! It's been over 3 years since someone hunted Flowchart Fun for the first time. At the time, I didn't even know what a Producthunt was! 😅 Over the past three years, I've been steadily growing Flowchart Fun and introducing new features. Interestingly, the app's success has coincided with the rise of generative AI and LLMs. Naturally, having a text-first app right when AI gets great at generating text felt serendipitous, but even still I've struggled to come up with the right way to integrate it. If AI is over-emphasized, it feels clunky and gets in the way of using the app. If it's under-emphasized, it creates awkward flows that slow people down. Flowchart Fun has _always_ been about speeding up the process of creating diagrams– that's why we've been text-first since the beginning. I wanted the AI "intervention" to follow suit. That's why, I'm happy to introduce... 🥁 ## The AI Toolbar 👾👽🛸 [cue X Files Music] This may be more hype than a toolbar on a diagramming app deserves, but I've tried a lot of different ways to integrate AI into Flowchart Fun and out of all the ideas I've tried, this one feels by far the best. You can create diagrams from a loose idea "show me a diagram of a rocket launch" (Prompt Mode), you can create a diagram from a bunch of text you already have like notes, outlines, or even a blog post (Convert Mode), and finally when you're working a diagram you like, you can edit the entire thing with natural language (Edit Mode). Not too much, not too little. The goldilocks of AI integrations. 🤌 So that's the focus of this launch and I hope people will go give it a try. We offer a several free generations per-month (no login required) and then it's $4/month for unlimited generations. See you on the other side!

"Sounds like a really neat update, Rob! Love the focus on keeping things fast and simple while still integrating AI. The toolbar sounds like it’ll be super helpful for creating quick diagrams without getting bogged down by too many features. Excited to give it a try.

Congratulations @tonerow on the exciting launch of the AI Toolbar for Flowchart Fun! 🎉 It's incredible to see how the app has evolved over the years, especially with the rise of AI. Your ability to find the balance in AI integration is impressive. Keep up the great work!

This looks really interesting, and will definitely use it in the future.

Looks exciting!!

this is lovely, bridges actions and AI. this seems to be direct useful app. Great work

Nice one , now everyone can become artists 👩‍🎨
