Using the text input box
Type your process description directly into the text input field on the home screen or the editor. There is no required format or template — write naturally, as if you were explaining the process to a new team member. When you’re ready, click Generate to produce the diagram.Even a single sentence like “A customer places an order and we ship it” will produce a valid BPMN diagram. You can always add more detail and regenerate to get a more precise result.
Tips for writing an effective description
A well-written description gives the AI enough context to place the right elements in the right places. Keep these guidelines in mind: Name the roles involved. Use job titles or role names rather than “someone” or “they.” The AI maps named roles to pools and lanes automatically. Call out every decision point. Phrases like “if the invoice is approved,” “when stock is available,” or “depending on the customer tier” tell the AI to insert gateways with the correct branches. Describe exception and error paths. If something can go wrong — a payment failure, a rejected application, a missing document — mention it. These become error events or alternative sequence flows in the diagram. List parallel activities. If two things happen at the same time, say so: “simultaneously, the warehouse team picks the items while the finance team prepares the invoice.” The AI will add a parallel gateway. Mention start and end points. Be explicit about what triggers the process and what a successful completion looks like.Example prompts
