The Problem with Today's EA Tooling
Most enterprise architecture teams still manage their application landscape using a combination of spreadsheets, Visio diagrams, SharePoint pages, and individual knowledge. The result is version fragmentation, no dependency mapping, manual risk scoring, an inability to generate executive views, and no audit trail.
Dedicated EA tools exist, but they are expensive, rigid, and none of them have kept pace with what AI makes possible. BiZZdesign, LeanIX, Ardoq, iServer, and Sparx EA all provide architecture modelling, but none offer AI diagram generation, AI health scoring, AI auto-fix, or an MCP server for AI assistant integration.
