About NSG
We believe understanding complex systems shouldn't require a PhD in graph theory.
Our Mission
Modern software systems are deeply nested, interconnected, and constantly evolving. Traditional visualization tools either show you too much detail (overwhelming) or too little (useless). NSG takes a different approach: spatial, hierarchical, and interactive.
We're building the infrastructure to help developers, architects, and teams understand their systems at any level of abstraction. Whether you're debugging a microservices mesh, onboarding to a new codebase, or designing your next data pipeline, NSG gives you the tools to see, navigate, and share your mental model.
What We Believe
Clarity over complexity
The best tools make hard things simple, not simple things hard. We optimize for understanding.
Open by default
Our schema is open. Your data is yours. We believe in interoperability and avoiding lock-in.
Performance matters
100ms or it didn't happen. We obsess over render performance because slow tools don't get used.
Developer experience first
If it's not pleasant to use, it won't be used. We build for developers who expect great tools.
The Team
NSG is built by a small team of engineers who've spent years wrestling with complex systems at companies like Vercel, Stripe, and Google. We got tired of drawing boxes on whiteboards and decided to build something better.
We're based in San Francisco and backed by leading investors in developer tools.
