Rebuilds a screenshotted flowchart or org chart into an editable file with real shapes and connectors.
LayerBack converts diagram images, such as flowcharts, architecture diagrams, and org charts, back into editable files, outputting to formats like Visio, PowerPoint, and draw.io with real shapes, connectors, and text instead of just embedding the original picture. It offers an online editor for cleanup after conversion, plus an API and an MCP server so AI agents or other software can trigger conversions directly. Pricing runs on a monthly credit system: a free tier gives 10 credits for a couple of conversions, and paid tiers from Pro through Max scale up credits, concurrent conversion limits, and API rate limits, with failed conversions automatically refunded. Annual billing cuts the monthly price roughly in half. The company does not disclose its name or location, though it lists a CEO, Dana Cole, by name.
Pro is $20/month ($10/month billed yearly) for 1,000 credits (about 100 conversions) and API access; Free gives 10 credits with no API.
Use tool ↗LayerBack solves a specific annoyance: someone sends a diagram as a flat image, and you need to actually edit it. Converting to real shapes and connectors in Visio, PowerPoint, and draw.io formats, plus API and MCP access for automation, makes it more than a one-off web toy, though the free tier's 10 credits won't go far.
