What Stately is

Stately is a visual software modeling platform for turning app and business logic into state machines, statecharts, and actors. The product combines a drag-and-drop editor with XState so teams can design logic visually and run it in code.

The site positions Stately as a shared source of truth for logic across design, development, testing, and documentation. Users can create flows without code, simulate them, generate code or React apps, and keep diagrams aligned with implementation over time.

Features

Visual editor for shared logic modeling

Build logic with a drag-and-drop editor that brings code, diagrams, documentation, and test generation into one workspace.

Simulation mode

Simulate state machines directly in the editor, including triggered events, event logs, and automatic handling of eventless and delayed events when the machine has no errors.

Code and documentation export

Export state machines as JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON, Mermaid, Markdown, or Stories, and send projects to CodeSandbox or StackBlitz.

AI-assisted generation

Generate state machines, React UIs, and code with AI, with pricing tiers defining different generation allowances.

Versioning and codebase sync

Keep a history of work with versioning, share private or unlisted projects on higher tiers, and connect GitHub Sync for codebase alignment.

Developer integrations

Use Stately alongside XState in JavaScript and TypeScript apps, with support for React, Vue, Svelte, and a VS Code extension for editor workflows.

Common use cases

  • Prototype app and workflow logic

    Create flows without code, then simulate them to check state changes and iterate before implementation.

  • Team review and requirements gathering

    Use the visual editor to align product, design, and engineering on how behavior should work, then share diagrams as a source of truth.

  • AI-assisted scaffolding and code handoff

    Generate state machines, React apps, and code from diagrams to accelerate handoff into development work.

  • Documentation and specification export

    Export diagrams and machine definitions into formats such as JavaScript, TypeScript, Mermaid, Markdown, or Stories for documentation and delivery.

  • Ongoing implementation in existing codebases

    Connect the model to a codebase with XState, GitHub Sync, and framework support for React, Vue, Svelte, and other JavaScript apps.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Combines visual modeling, code export, and simulation in one workflow.
  • Works with XState, which is open source and supports JavaScript and TypeScript.
  • Supports multiple frameworks and environments, including React, Vue, Svelte, and other JavaScript runtimes.
  • Includes AI generation, React app generation, test generation, and GitHub Sync options.
  • Offers a free Community plan for public projects.

Cons

  • Some collaboration and output features are limited to paid plans, including private projects, version history, live simulation mode, and certain export formats.
  • The docs and pricing pages emphasize state-machine-based workflows, so teams looking for a general-purpose diagramming tool may find the product more specialized.

FAQ

What is Stately Studio used for?

Stately Studio is a visual software modeling platform for building app and business logic as state machines, statecharts, and actors. The docs describe it as a visual editor that pairs with XState, but it can also be used without XState if you are learning the concepts first.

What features does Stately Studio include?

The source pages show a drag-and-drop visual editor, simulation mode, code export, version history, AI generation, GitHub Sync, Figma embed, and a VS Code extension. It also supports React app generation and test generation.

Does Stately have free and paid plans?

The pricing page lists a free Community plan for public projects, a Professional plan for private and unlisted projects, a Team plan for shared team projects, and an Enterprise plan with custom options. It also offers a services contact path for consulting and workshops.

What can I export from Stately?

The export docs say you can export machine code in JSON, JavaScript, TypeScript, Mermaid, Markdown beta, and Stories beta, and can also export to CodeSandbox and StackBlitz. Some export formats and features are limited to premium plans.

Can teams use Stately with existing codebases and tools?

The docs say Stately Studio is most powerful with XState, but you can also use XState in a codebase without Stately Studio. The home page says integrations are available for React, Vue, Svelte, and other frameworks, and the docs mention a VS Code extension.
