C4 Model vs Cybewave

The C4 model defines what to diagram (Context, Container, Component, Code) but not how to create those diagrams. You need a tool: Structurizr, PlantUML with C4 macros, Mermaid C4 syntax, or a drawing tool like draw.io.

Cybewave Studio is that tool — and more. It renders C4 diagrams natively, adds AI generation from plain English, supports 20+ diagram types beyond C4, and integrates with your Git workflow.

Think of it this way: C4 gives you the framework. Cybewave gives you the tool to implement that framework — plus everything else you need for architecture as code.
