Text in\, diagram out.
Napkin reads a paragraph and proposes visuals that represent it — flows\, comparisons\, hierarchies — which you then edit\, rather than making you build a diagram from scratch.
It solves a real problem for people who think in prose but need to present visually\, and the free plan's 500 weekly credits is generous enough for genuine use. Free output carries Napkin branding\, and SVG export needs a paid plan.
