I tested the basic functionality of these flowchart apps, as well as advanced features like collaboration (using another account), AI prompts, data syncing, and more. To test these flowchart apps, I signed up for either a free account or trial of each and started one or more projects the way I normally would in my workflow. Even now as a freelancer, I love visually organizing my thoughts when beginning a project.
Working in marketing agencies for over ten years means I've seen my fair share of flowcharts, wireframes, diagrams, and mind maps in everything from website or campaign planning to brainstorming and creative ideation.

We're never paid for placement in our articles from any app or for links to any site-we value the trust readers put in us to offer authentic evaluations of the categories and apps we review. We spend dozens of hours researching and testing apps, using each app as it's intended to be used and evaluating it against the criteria we set for the category. All of our best apps roundups are written by humans who've spent much of their careers using, testing, and writing about software.
