Edraw has a workable official integration path. Most engineering teams can build against it directly. Open API: self-serve, documented, with SDKs
Edraw (operated by Wondershare Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen, China; Edraw brand founded 2004, acquired/consolidated under Wondershare) is a diagramming and visualization software family sold under the edrawsoft.com umbrella.

Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
