ArchiPulse stores, visualizes, and analyzes your <strong>ArchiMate models</strong> in a self-hosted web platform.
Your architecture is not a static file — it's <strong>living, collaborative data</strong>.
ArchiPulse is an <strong>AI-native Enterprise Architecture platform</strong> — connect your AI agent via MCP and let it create, query, and manage ArchiMate models. Every model is stored relationally, exportable as AOEF, and <strong>fully interoperable</strong> with Archi, BiZZdesign, and Sparx EA.

<h2>One insight. Radical simplicity.</h2>
<p class="section-intro">The ArchiMate Open Exchange Format already defines what entities exist. Map them directly to PostgreSQL tables — and everything else becomes trivial.</p>
<h2>Two ways in. One model out.</h2>
<p class="section-intro">Start from an existing AOEF file or let an AI agent build the model from scratch — the result is the same: a persistent, queryable, interoperable ArchiMate repository.</p>

<div class="step-content">
<h3>Model in your preferred tool</h3>
<p>Use Archi, archimate-editor, or any AOEF-compatible tool. ArchiPulse works alongside what you already have — it doesn't replace it.</p>
<h3>Bring your model — or describe it</h3>
<p>Upload an AOEF file from Archi, BiZZdesign, or any compatible tool. Or connect Claude (or any MCP agent) and describe your system in natural language — the AI creates elements, relationships, and diagrams directly.</p>

<h3>Upload AOEF</h3>
<p>ArchiPulse parses the model and stores it in PostgreSQL — one row per element, relationship, and diagram. XSD validated. No transformation magic.</p>
<h3>Stored in PostgreSQL, structured as AOEF</h3>
