UrbaHive — Collaborative IT Enterprise Architecture
Visualize, map, and manage your entire IT infrastructure with your team in real-time. Bring clarity to complexity.
Why useUrbaHive?
Discover how UrbaHive solves real challenges for IT teams every day.
Accelerate your IT project scoping
Every new project starts with weeks spent identifying affected applications, dependencies, and stakeholders. Scoping takes longer than the project itself.
In a few clicks, visualize impacted applications, their dependencies, and responsible teams. Export a scoping view ready for the steering committee.
Scoping reduced from 3 weeks to 2 days — projects finally start on time.
Drive your cloud migration with zero blind spots
You want to move to the cloud, but you can't tell which applications are eligible, which have critical dependencies, and in what order to proceed.
Map your existing IT, score each application (TIME model), and plan your migration waves with a clear view of dependencies.
Migration planned in 1 week instead of 2 months — zero surprises in production.
Onboard your devs 3x faster
Every new developer spends 2-3 weeks understanding the technical ecosystem: which services exist, who maintains them, how they communicate.
Give every new hire an interactive, up-to-date map of your tech stack. Links between services, APIs, and teams are visible at a glance.
Technical onboarding cut from 3 weeks to 4 days — devs contribute from week one.
Rooted in urbanization best practices,built for everyone
Built on 25 years of best practices
UrbaHive is built on the proven foundations of IT urbanization: business, functional, application, and technical layers. Recognized frameworks — TOGAF, ArchiMate — are natively integrated. No compromise on methodological rigor.
But designed for every team
Unlike traditional EA tools reserved for architects, UrbaHive is designed for everyone who works with IT systems daily. The intuitive interface lets every role contribute, explore, and collaborate — without weeks of training.

Everything you need to map yourIT infrastructure
Powerful features designed for modern IT teams who need clarity and collaboration.
Visual Infrastructure Mapping
Create comprehensive, interactive maps of your IT infrastructure.
Real-Time Collaboration for Teams

Modern Tools for IT teams
We strongly believe that IT teams should have access to modern tools to manage their infrastructure.
Enterprise Security
Bank-grade security with role-based access control, audit logs.
Import / Export
Import and export your architecture models using the ArchiMate Exchange Format, the open standard from The Open Group for Enterprise Architecture tool interoperability.
Multi-Site Support
Manage multiple locations and data centers from a single unified platform.
Your business processes,wired into your map
Document your processes, link every step to your applications and teams, then let UrbaHive reveal where to automate and where the risks hide.
Linked to your IT
Each step is tied to its actors and the applications that support it. Business processes and application mapping become one.
Optimization score
A volume-weighted score surfaces the processes with the highest automation potential, so you prioritize without debate.
Automatable hours
UrbaHive quantifies the hours you can reclaim every month from the duration and mode of each step (manual, assisted, automated).
Operational risks
Single points of knowledge (bus-factor), processes without an owner or not reviewed in 12 months: blind spots surface automatically.
From documentation to decision
The dashboard rolls your processes up into actionable metrics: overall optimization opportunity, automatable hours per month, and the top high-gain steps. Operational signals flag risks before they get expensive.

Connect Claudeto your architecture
With the MCP (Model Context Protocol) standard, your UrbaHive map becomes a context source for AI assistants. Generate a token, plug in Claude, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf or Devin — query your IT landscape, and even let an agent bootstrap it from your code.
Works with
Query your IT in plain language
Ask Claude your questions — applications, flows, servers, programs, processes — and get answers pulled live from your map.
Read or write — your choice
Each access token (PAT) targets a single organization. Read-only by default; enable write on demand ('write' scope + role) so an agent can create or update your map. No delete, ever.
Fully audited
Every call is recorded in your audit log. European hosting, GDPR-compliant, nothing leaves the EU.
For example, ask Claude:
- “Which applications depend on the SAP server?”
- “Summarize my IT landscape in five points.”
- “Which business processes run through Salesforce?”

AboutUrbaHive
UrbaHive was born from a simple observation: IT teams spend countless hours creating and updating infrastructure diagrams that quickly become outdated. We knew there had to be a better way.
