Visio for the web is a browser-based way to view, edit, and share Visio diagrams. Start with a basic diagram to express common ideas, such as depicting a plan, making a proposal, or describing a sequence of steps in a process. It's simple and easy to create first-class diagrams with commonly used diagram types and rich shape sets. To collaborate with team members and stakeholders, you can share the diagram with others.
Note
People who have a Microsoft 365 business subscription can use Visio for the web to create basic diagrams. To create more advanced diagrams, you'll need either a Visio Plan 1 or Visio Plan 2 license, which is purchased separately. For more information, see Frequently asked questions about Visio in Microsoft 365.
