ARCHITECTURE MEMORY LAYER

The memory layer that helps
AI agents build full-stack systems correctly

AI coding agents (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) write code in isolation — they don't know your actual system topology, service contracts, or DB schemas. Zinloop's MCP server bridges that gap: push your architecture once, and every agent query is grounded in your real design.

How it works
Design your architecture
Prompt or build manually on the canvas
Step 1
Push to MCP server
One click — registers all nodes, edges, schemas
Step 2
AI agent queries the design
Copilot / Cursor / Claude reads the context
Step 3
Generates correct code
Knows your DB schemas, API contracts, service topology

PLATFORM CAPABILITIES

A complete design platform,
not another diagram tool

12 AI-powered tools built into one canvas — from first prompt to production infrastructure.

AI Architecture Generation

Describe your system in plain English — get a full-stack, layered architecture with gateway, services, data, K8s, and monitoring instantly.

Visual Node Canvas

Drag, resize, and connect nodes on an infinite canvas. Every component is inspectable, editable, and exportable.

New

Template Marketplace

Start from 6 production-proven blueprints: URL shortener, RAG chatbot, e-commerce, ETL pipeline, real-time chat, microservices platform.

New

Interview Mode

AI analyses your design and asks 5 targeted system design interview questions. Get instant scoring (0–10) with strengths and improvements.

New

Architecture Diff

Save named snapshots of your design, then compare any two versions side-by-side with color-coded node and edge changes.

New

IaC Export

One-click export to Terraform (HCL), Docker Compose, or Kubernetes YAML. AI maps every node to real cloud resources.

New

Compliance Checker

Score your design against SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and ISO 27001. Get gap analysis and remediation steps instantly.

New

Incident Simulator

Blast-radius analysis — inject a failure anywhere in your system and see cascading impacts, affected services, and recovery steps.

New

Build Roadmap

AI generates a phased implementation plan with milestones, stack recommendations, and actionable steps — tracked in the studio.

New

Team Workspaces

Export your full session bundle as a shareable link or JSON file. Teammates import it in one click — no account required.

Embed & Share

Publish your architecture as a read-only embed — drop it in Notion, Confluence, or any iframe. Share public links instantly.

Architecture Memory Layer

Register your design in Zinloop's MCP server. AI coding agents (Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) query it to understand your system and generate code that actually fits.

n8n & MCP Export

Push directly to n8n workflow JSON or your MCP server. Take designs from canvas to production automation without manual translation.

INTERVIEW MODE

Ace your next
system design interview

Build your design, then let Zinloop's AI take you through a real interview. 5 targeted questions based on your actual architecture — covering scalability, failure modes, cost, and security tradeoffs.

  • Junior, Senior, and Staff difficulty tracks
  • AI grading 0–10 with actionable feedback
  • Strengths + improvement areas per answer
  • Show/hide hints (costs you interview points 😄)

Live Interview · Senior Level
Q2 / 5
Architecture

How would you handle hot-spot partitioning in your Cassandra layer?

Scale

Your API Gateway receives 500K RPS. What changes in your current design?

Score8/10
Failure

If Redis goes down, what's the blast radius and how does your design recover?

IaC EXPORT

From canvas to cloud in seconds

AI maps every node in your design to real AWS resources, Docker services, or Kubernetes manifests. Download ready-to-apply infrastructure code.

# terraform/main.tf

cluster_id = "zinloop-redis"
engine = "redis"

Track every design decision

Save named snapshots at any point, then compare two versions side-by-side. Every added, removed, and changed node is clearly highlighted.
