Scapius Wants to Compile the Enterprise Architecture Diagram
Scapius turns a plain-text model of systems into consistent, filtered architecture diagrams and dashboards.
Field notes
The product models systems, applications, and data in a Scapius DSL, then compiles that source into named views including landscape, container, workspace, and threat-model diagrams. Its proposed maintenance model treats architecture changes like code changes: store the source in git, review edits there, and regenerate the dependent views. The homepage is marked version 1.0 beta and uses abandoned-looking filenames such as “landscape_v3_final_FINAL.pptx” to illustrate the problem it targets.
