Arialine Pricing 2026

Arialine is a freemium productivity tool that offers 7 key features including Generate diagrams from text, Editable version history, Export to PNG. Arialine is the Mermaid diagram and AI diagram generator built into Slack. Teams design systems, plan launches and run incidents in Slack threads, but the diagrams live in Miro, Lucidchart, draw.io or a forgotten Mermaid Live Editor tab, fall out of date, and nobody remembers why an arrow is there. Arialine keeps the diagram where the conversation lives. Slack doesn't render Mermaid code blocks on its own; Arialine does. How it works: Paste Mermaid or describe a system in plain language, and the diagram lands in the channel as a PNG and an interactive HTML file. Edit it by replying in the thread; every change becomes a version linked to the Slack message behind it. Ask why an element exists and Arialine cites the decision, author, date and message. Render Mermaid in Slack: Type /arialine followed by your Mermaid code. Valid code renders exactly as written, with no AI and no quota. You can also mention @Arialine with a Mermaid code block, share a .mmd file, or use the Render as diagram shortcut. The source is kept, so the diagram stays editable instead of being a one-off preview image. Every Mermaid diagram type: Mermaid 12 with ZenUML: flowchart, sequence diagram, class diagram, state diagram, ER diagram, C4 model, Gantt chart, pie chart, mindmap, timeline, git graph, user journey, quadrant chart, requirement diagram, Sankey, XY chart, block diagram, packet diagram, kanban, architecture diagram, radar and treemap, plus swimlane, use case, event modeling, Venn, Ishikawa (fishbone), Wardley map, Cynefin, tree view, railroad and agent flow diagrams. AI diagram generator: Describe it and mention Arialine: "@Arialine 2FA sequence diagram", "@Arialine C4 container diagram for our checkout service", "@Arialine onboarding funnel". Arialine writes the Mermaid and posts the diagram as an editable board. Turn a Slack discussion into a diagram: Talk as usual, then write "@Arialine diagram what we decided". Recent channel discussion becomes context, so design reviews, incident timelines, postmortems and planning threads become diagrams without copy-pasting. Edit, version and explain: Reply in the thread: "@Arialine add a retry step after Payment". Edits apply immediately or arrive as proposals with Apply, Edit and Dismiss. Every change is a new version: undo, rewind or branch. Brainstorm alternatives and adopt one. React with a pushpin to turn any message into a proposed change. A decision record is kept in a Slack canvas. Markdown to Slack canvas: Share a .md file or use Render as canvas: Arialine renders it as a native Slack canvas with headings, lists, tables and code, and turns every Mermaid code block into a diagram image. Good for READMEs, runbooks, specs, ADRs and postmortems. Export: Download the .mmd source, PNG, SVG, or a PDF report of one or several versions with authors, dates and source messages. The interactive HTML has pan, zoom, source, decisions and history, and works on phones and outside Slack. Slackbot and MCP: Arialine is an MCP server, so Slack's AI assistant can create and edit diagrams and explain the decisions behind them. Who uses it: Software engineers and architects (system design, C4, sequence and ER diagrams), engineering managers and SREs (incident timelines, postmortems, on-call runbooks), product managers (user journeys, roadmaps, Gantt timelines), marketing and ops teams (funnels, customer journeys, process maps), and onboarding (living architecture docs in Slack). Use cases: Architecture reviews, system design docs, API sequence flows, database ER models, incident postmortems, on-call runbooks, onboarding guides, sprint planning, product roadmaps, customer journeys, sales processes, org charts and decision records, all created and kept in Slack. Why teams switch: - vs Mermaid Live Editor or Mermaid Preview: diagrams stay in Slack, editable, versioned and explained. - vs Miro and Lucidchart: no separate whiteboard, no per-seat licences, the diagram sits next to the decision. - vs screenshots of diagrams: the source and history are kept. Privacy and languages: Admins can stop storing pasted Mermaid. Each channel picks PNG, HTML or both. Available in English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Chinese and Hindi. Pricing: Free includes every feature: 3 boards, 8 versions each, 10 AI generations per day and unlimited pasted Mermaid. Team removes every limit for one flat price per workspace, not per seat. Works on every Slack plan, including Free. FAQ: Does Slack support Mermaid? Not natively. Arialine adds Mermaid rendering to any Slack workspace. Do I need to know Mermaid? No. Describe the diagram in plain language and Arialine writes it. Is it free? Yes, the Free plan includes every feature, and pasted Mermaid renders without limit. Can I export? PNG, SVG, .mmd and PDF.
