Drag-and-drop sitemap planner with instant JSON export—faster than spreadsheets.

Strengths
  • JSON export bridges planning and development, skipping manual transcription
  • Drag-and-drop canvas with templates removes the blank-page friction for IA work
  • No signup, free tier, clear value prop for solo builders and small teams
Weaknesses
  • Visual sitemap builders exist (Miro, Figma, Lucidchart); differentiation is speed not capability
  • Feature scope feels narrow—core tool is one focused use case, not a platform

Post Description

I built EPIC (https://no-edit.lovable.app) to make planning website and SaaS navigation less messy. I used to outline everything in docs: Home – Features – Pricing – Blog It works at first, but once the hierarchy grows, it becomes hard to scan, restructure, or share clearly. This tool converts a simple list of pages into a visual sitemap instantly. You can reorganize hierarchy, see nesting depth, and adjust structure before touching UI. It’s been useful for planning: SaaS navigation Onboarding flows Documentation structure Course outlines The goal isn’t design — it’s clarity before design. Would love feedback from the Hacker News community, especially on how you approach information architecture before building.
