Visit Gliffy

Gliffy is a diagramming application for Atlassian Confluence that lets teams create and maintain technical diagrams inside Confluence pages. It supports flowcharts, UML, BPMN, process, architecture, network, and Mermaid diagrams, helping teams document workflows, systems, and structures without leaving Confluence. It is owned by Perforce.

Key capabilities include drag-and-drop editing, AI diagram generation from natural-language prompts, interactive diagrams with expandable layers, full-text search of diagram content in Confluence, and automatic updates to diagram copies when a source diagram changes. It also offers the Gliffy Rovo Agent for generating diagrams from Confluence context, Mermaid text-based diagramming, CSV data linking, Visio and draw.io import, and export to JPEG, PNG, and SVG. Gliffy is available for Confluence Cloud and Data Center, with a Gliffy Zero Egress edition for teams in regulated environments.

Gliffy is aimed at teams creating technical documentation in Confluence, including those with security or compliance requirements. It is available as a free plan for up to 10 users, with paid subscription tiers based on user count for larger teams. A 30-day evaluation is available for both Cloud and Data Center. Data Center licenses are perpetual and include 12 months of maintenance.
