Architecture, authored
in conversation.

Basalt is an AI copilot for system architecture. Describe your stack in plain English — cloud, hybrid, or industrial — and get a clean diagram in seconds. And where most tools stop at the cloud, Basalt goes deeper: first-class OT/ICS, with compliance checks built in.

What architecture demands

Six properties. Every layer, every review.

Great OT architecture isn't a diagram — it's a contract with the plant floor, the auditor, and the next engineer. Basalt enforces it at every level.

Why Basalt

OT-native primitives. Not general-purpose diagramming.

Every zone, conduit, and asset knows the standard it lives under. Ask, edit, or import — the diagram and its rationale stay in lock-step.

Conversational authoring

Ask. It builds. It cites the rule.

Prompt the diagram like you'd prompt a colleague. Every change writes a linked entry in the compliance document — clause, rationale, delta.

Diagram as code

Code the network. Correctness comes free.

A tiny OT-native DSL. Basalt renders, validates, and cites the clause — line by line, as you type.
