01Step
Open your workspace
Every workspace gives architects a single home for documents, entities, frameworks, and reviews. The dashboard surfaces what is live, what is in review, and what needs attention.

Why we built it
Decks rot. Wikis fragment. Reviews drift.
Every enterprise architecture team faces the same three problems. Studio solves all of them in one place.
01
Decks rot
Architecture decisions live in slides nobody opens a month later. Studio keeps every decision discoverable, versioned, and tied to the code it shapes.
02
Wikis fragment
Confluence becomes a graveyard. Studio gives every concept — entity, requirement, decision, framework — a typed home with cross-links.
03
Reviews drift
ARB submissions get lost in email. Studio routes every change through a structured review with reviewer overlays and decision logs.
What Studio is
Three things, done well.
Living documents, an interactive workspace graph, and a built-in Architecture Review Board — the surface our own architects work on every day.
01 · Living documents
Block-based architecture documents
Studio replaces flat pages with composable blocks. Each block has its own theme, its own behaviour, and renders identically in the editor and on the published page — so what reviewers see is what readers see.
- Twelve typed block primitives, purpose-built for architecture
- Reviewer overlay layer for inline annotations
- Same renderer in editor and read view
WORKSPACE GRAPH
02 · Workspace graph
An interactive map of your architecture
Studio renders entities, services, and dependencies as a navigable JointJS graph. Click any node to jump to its document. Filter by domain, by framework, by review state.
- JointJS-powered workspace map
- Click-through to entity documents
- Filter by domain, framework, or status
03 · ARB workflow
An Architecture Review Board, built in
Submit a change. Reviewers add inline annotations on the actual rendered document. The ARB decides. The decision lives where the change lives — permanently.
- Structured submission → review → decision
- Inline reviewer overlays on rendered docs
- Decisions traceable from any future change

02Step
Start from a template
Pick from ADR, Service Spec, Entity Definition, Domain Map, NFR Sheet, Threat Model, Capability Map, or Integration Spec. The envelope is pre-filled, the block scaffold matches the document type.
03Step
Compose with typed blocks
The editor renders blocks as you write them — Heading, Code, Callout, Framework, Entity reference. Each block enforces its own structure so architecture concepts get first-class treatment.
04Step
Author with live preview and AI
Compose blocks on the left, see them render in real time on the right. Ask the AI panel for help shaping content, drafting requirements, or suggesting framework references — without leaving the document.
05Step
Publish — or export
Publish as a polished HTML page that anyone in your organisation can read, or export to print-ready PDF with the same theming. One source, two surfaces.

Featured
Live preview with AI panel
Compose blocks on the left, watch them render in real time on the right, and ask the AI for help shaping content — without leaving the document.
Component picker
Drop any of the 12 typed blocks into the active document.
Framework artefacts
Reference reusable architecture patterns from anywhere in the workspace.
AI authoring panel
Generate, expand, and refine block content with an architecture-aware assistant.

Publish any document as a polished, themed HTML page — shareable, indexable.
PDF export
Export documents to print-ready PDF with the same theming as the live page.
Starting points
Templates for the documents architects write often.
Studio ships with templates for the document types that recur across every engagement. Each template has the right envelope, the right block scaffold, and the right review path pre-configured.
ADR
ADR
Architecture Decision Record — context, decision, consequences, alternatives considered.
API
Service Spec
API surface, dependencies, SLOs, ownership, and runtime characteristics for a service.
ENT
Entity Definition
Domain entity with attributes, relations, bounded context, and ownership.
DOM
Domain Map
Bounded contexts, entity ownership, and cross-domain integration points.
NFR
NFR Sheet
Non-functional requirements with criticality, measurement method, and target values.
THR
Threat Model
STRIDE-based threat model with assets, threats, mitigations, and residual risk.
CAP
Capability Map
Business capabilities, the systems that realize them, and the gaps between them.
INT
Integration Spec
API contract, message schemas, error semantics, and back-pressure handling.
How Studio is different
Built for architecture. Not adapted to it.
General-purpose tools were designed for general-purpose writing. Studio was designed against the engagements FINTEXIS runs — and it shows in what it models, not just what it stores.

Who Studio is for
Designed against four kinds of architects.
Studio is shaped by the roles that engage with architecture every day. Each role gets the same workspace — but the value lands differently for each.
01
Enterprise Architect
Capability maps, domain models, target-state blueprints, and governance artifacts in one navigable workspace — with traceable decisions and an auditable trail.
- Capability and domain maps
- Target-state blueprints
- Auditable decision log
02
Software Architect
Service specs, ADRs, framework references, and reviewer-overlaid technical documents — the same workspace your engineers read, written in the same notation.
- Service specs and ADRs
- Framework references
- Workspace graph navigation
03
Engineering Lead
Living documentation your engineers actually read. Reviews that happen on the document, not in a parallel channel. Decisions linked to the code they shape.
- Living documentation
- Inline reviewer overlays
- Decisions linked to code
04
Architecture Consultant
A workspace you can stand up on day 0 of an engagement, hand over on day N, and the client can still navigate two years later — because every artifact is typed and discoverable.
- Day-0 workspace setup
- Engagement handover
- Long-tail discoverability
Trust & compliance
Built for regulated environments.
Architecture artifacts are some of the most sensitive documents an organisation produces. Studio treats them that way — with EU data residency, encryption at rest and in transit, structured audit logs, and a compliance posture built for the regulated sectors we serve.
EU data residency
All workspace data is stored in EU regions by default. Customer-specific residency options are available for the regulated sectors we serve.
Encryption at rest and in transit
TLS 1.3 in transit. AES-256 at rest. Encryption keys managed in EU-region key management services.
GDPR aligned
Data minimisation, right of erasure, and data-processing agreements as standard. DPIA support documentation available on request.
SSO / SAML on roadmap
OIDC sign-in available in beta. SAML and SCIM provisioning for Okta and Azure AD are the next identity work.
Audit logs
Every read, write, review, and decision is logged with actor, timestamp, and document version. Exportable for compliance reviews.

Common questions
Frequently asked.
When can I try it?
Studio is in private beta. Request access via the form below — we onboard new teams every two weeks based on fit and capacity.
Is it self-hosted or SaaS?
Cloud-hosted today. Self-hosted and on-prem options are on the roadmap for regulated customers (energy, banking, public sector).
How does it compare to Confluence, Notion, or Backstage?
Studio is purpose-built for architecture: typed blocks for architectural concepts, an interactive workspace graph, and a built-in ARB workflow. General-purpose wikis don't model architecture — Studio does.
Do I need to engage FINTEXIS consulting to use Studio?
No. Studio is a standalone product. Many beta teams use it without engaging us for consulting — though it is the same workspace we use in our engagements.
What about data residency and security?
EU data residency by default. Encryption in transit and at rest. We are happy to share our security posture during beta onboarding.
Is there a pricing page?
Not during private beta. Beta participants help us shape pricing. We will publish public pricing when we move to public beta.
