Use case
Product flow diagrams
Turn user journeys, onboarding flows, and product decisions into diagrams that PM, design, and engineering can read together.
The goal is not to rewrite the diagram from scratch, but to make the source easier to present and reuse.

Product managers, designers, and engineers who need a shared map of user decisions, screens, product states, and edge cases.

- Checkout or upgrade paths
- State transitions and exception paths
Best diagram types
Flowcharts explain user decisions, state diagrams explain lifecycle transitions, and mindmaps help organize early product discovery.
Workflow
Map the happy path first, add alternate branches and edge cases, then beautify the diagram before sharing it in a spec or review deck.
