OmniGraffle is a diagramming application made by the Omni Group. According to the site, OmniGraffle is built specifically—and exclusively—for Mac OS X.

In many respects, OmniGraffle is similar to Microsoft Visio, indeed the Professional version of OmniGraffle can both import and export Visio files. It may be used to create simple diagrams, flow charts and illustrations. It features a drag-and-drop WYSIWYG interface. "Palettes"—groups of shapes to drag and drop, are available as extensions for OmniGraffle, and users can create their own palettes.

OmniGraffle takes full advantage of Mac OS X's graphics layer, known as Aqua, and benefits from on-the-fly antialiasing, smooth scaling, transparent drop shadowing, and other features. The latest version of OmniGraffle adds Bézier shapes and text-based hierarchical chart construction to the range of available tools. The program does not yet feature Bézier lines (i.e., with a beginning and an end). Instead lines are bent to fit between their points. This makes them relatively easy to create, but difficult to control with any great precision.

Usefully, OmniGraffle can output to PDF, TIFF, PNG, JPEG, EPS, HTML image map, SVG, PICT vector, Photoshop and BMP bitmap documents.

OmniGraffle allows intuitive mental-mapping techniques in organizing information, as well as an advanced style manager, making it very easy to lay out web page prototypes or PDF documents, as well as fast outlines or brainstorming documents.
