Simplify design for complex architectures
Align teams on your current & future technical design
Everything to design scaled software, nothing more
IcePanel is crafted to get out of the way of your teams technical design process, giving you everything you need to design your future systems, without friction.
Architecture design workflow
Modelling keeps diagrams in sync
A view for each audience
Simple design
Accelerate your
design process
The essentials to keep your system design moving forward and up-to-date
Design first process
Design systems like you build them
Draft future ideas, gain feedback and iterate before committing to new/improved technical directions
Current vs Future
Fork your model to design your future and track where key architectural decisions are being made.
Feedback
Allow others to annotate, add notes and comment on their suggested changes.
Merge
Merge designs into your model once you've gained approval or on dev action.
Phase
Create phased release designs for your implementation, keeping the team aligned on when change is coming.
ADR's
Store architecture decisions and push to git for everyone to access.
Dynamic views
View your model from different perspectives by overlaying details instead of hundreds of diagrams.

Architects think we're cool
What experts like you are saying...
"I am a big fan of IcePanel"
l've been using it the last couple of years and reception at my company has been positive.
Kevin Principle Engineer "I'll never use Visio or LucidChart again"
After using IcePanel I'll never use Visio or LucidChart or any other 2D method of documenting systems and architecture again
Jay Data Architect "The right tooling makes the process far more efficient"
One tool l've found particularly useful is IcePanel, which supports C4 models to help teams document, refine, and validate architecture in a structured way.
Aram App security expert "I have absolutely fallen in love with IcePanel"
Visually stunning, everything you model becomes an entity, enhance entities by metadata, filter by that metadata, multiple levels; it's definitely easy and fun to use!
Martin Solution Architect "I don't need a girlfriend anymore"
One of my developers said, after splitting up with his girlfriend: "I don't need a girlfriend anymore, I have IcePanel now!" Guess you guys are doing it right!
Florian Director "If IcePanel isn't in your diagramming toolkit, you're wrong."
Nathan Assistant Director "Stakeholders can explore for free via a viewer license."
I've found IcePanel to be a fantastic tool to iterate and communicate designs with the people I meet as I ride the Architect Elevator at my clients.
Ant Cloud Architect "The solution was right in front of me"
I always thought it wasn't very suitable for representing large system architectures. I was wrong.
Paolo CTO "IcePanel is really the only way to go"
IcePanel is really the only way to go if you are serious about dynamic C4 diagraming and architecture storytelling. Wonderful team to.

Justin Founder "most common tools I see"
If you're looking for a starting point: - C4-PlantUML (diagrams as code) - diagrams.net (traditional diagramming) - IcePanel (browser-based modelling tool) - Structurizr (models as code)
Simon C4 model creator "An invaluable tool in my day to day"
Allowing me to model our existing architecture as well as our future state. Having different layers means I'm always ready to match my audience.
James Solutions Architect "A game changer"
Every new person who interacts with IcePanel in the company loves what they see and really appreciates the ease of use and abstraction levels. Bravo
Arun Director of Engineering "IcePanel helped us to streamline the design process, allowing us to focus on developing high-quality software."
Tommi Lead Architect "Significantly improved our development process"
Excellent user experience allowing flexible definition and documentation of system elements. It allows us to create clear diagrams for different audiences.
Rémy Architect "The source of truth for our architecture"
This enabled us to consolidate previously scattered diagrams into a unified model that everyone in the organization could access.
Fardjad Architect "Made us win last year"
The thing that is really cool about IcePanel is the fact that you standardize the way you visualize diagrams. You know that every system will be documented in IcePanel with a dedicated view. It isn't scattered.
Balin Data Engineering "Wish we had it sooner"
The developers that have been with us for a while say that they wished they would have had it sooner, and the more recent joiners say that it really helps get them up to speed.
