I’ve been working on a solution to this problem and created a tool focused on improving developer productivity — AI Diagram Maker - http://aidiagrammaker.com/

Instead of dragging, dropping, or writing code, you can just describe your system in plain English, and it instantly generates a clean, styled architecture diagram. You can then refine it conversationally (e.g., “make this a sequence diagram”), or, if you prefer more control, edit the underlying diagram-as-code (D2) directly.

The goal is to make communicating design ideas effortless — without spending hours aligning arrows or tweaking layouts.

Would love for you to try it out, and if you think it’s useful for your readers, I’d be verfy thankful if you’d consider adding it to your list.

I mostly used excalidraw but I am going to checkout the book on communication patterns. Hoping to get better at thinking visually.
