You shouldn’t typically need to redefine your data all over the places. There are zillions of converters for everything to zod, and zod to everything. If you already have JSON schema/swagger schemas, generate zod from em. If you use a typescript orm, I bet you $10 there’s a zod generator for it. Honestly zod has gotten so popular that for me, it’s the unifying schema definition that everything else in the stack can rely on. And since directly defines the types, devs actually keep it up to date (swagger docs at my company are ALWAYS lagging behind changes)
