Lucid

Lucid Software Inc. is the visual collaboration company behind the Lucid Suite — Lucidchart (intelligent diagramming), Lucidspark (virtual whiteboarding) and Lucidscale (cloud visualization) — plus the Lucid Cloud, Process and Enterprise Shield accelerators and airfocus. The Lucid Developer Platform at developer.lucid.co publishes three OpenAPI-described surfaces: the Lucid REST API on api.lucid.co for documents, folders, sharing, embeds, comments, teams, repositories, legal holds, licenses and audit logs; the Lucid Data API on data.lucid.app for the structured data sets, collections, schemas and data items that back data-linked diagrams; and a SCIM 2.0 API on users.lucid.app for enterprise user and group provisioning. Lucid also ships an in-editor Extension API (lucid-extension-sdk plus the lucid-package CLI), an Embed SDK, and an OAuth-gated remote MCP server at mcp.lucid.app that lets AI clients search, read, edit and create Lucid documents. Lucid is privately held and trades on secondary markets.

Lucid publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network, including REST API, Data API, SCIM API, and 1 more. Tagged areas include Visual Collaboration, Diagramming, Whiteboarding, Productivity, and SaaS.

Lucid’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, pricing, and 30 more developer resources.
