Graph Maker

Create a professional chart from your own numbers in a single screen. Choose from more than 60 chart types, including bar, line, pie, waterfall, Gantt, heatmap, Sankey and candlestick. Type or paste your data, or import a CSV or Excel file. Then style the chart and export it as an image, a PDF, an Excel workbook or a PowerPoint slide.

  2. Enter your data in the table, paste cells from a spreadsheet, or import a CSV or Excel file.

  4. Export PNG, JPG, SVG, PDF, Excel and PowerPoint files in one step.

Features

  • 63 chart types, from bar and line charts to waterfall, Pareto, box plot, violin, treemap, sunburst, Sankey, Gantt, gauge and calendar heatmap.
  • 32 types export as native, editable Excel and PowerPoint charts linked to real worksheet cells. Waterfall, Pareto and Gantt charts use live formulas.
  • Eight colour themes, five fonts, size presets for slides, social posts and reports, and a live preview that matches every export.
  • Your data never leaves the browser. Charts are drawn and files are built on your device.

Supported formats and limitations

Input: typed data, pasted spreadsheet cells, CSV/TSV, or Excel .xlsx/.xls/.ods (first sheet). Output: PNG and JPG (up to 3× resolution), SVG, PDF, Excel .xlsx and PowerPoint .pptx.

  • Excel import reads the first worksheet only, up to 1,000 rows and 24 columns.
  • Exported images use fonts installed on your device; the SVG keeps text editable but relies on the same fonts.
  • Native Office charts follow Excel's own drawing rules, so spacing and fonts can differ slightly from the preview.

Frequently asked questions

Is this graph maker free?

Yes. There is no sign-up, watermark or export limit, and your data stays in your browser.

Will the Excel file contain an editable chart?

For the 32 chart types marked “Editable in Excel”, the workbook contains a native Excel chart that reads from the data sheet, so changing a number updates the chart. Other types, such as Sankey or violin plots, have no Excel equivalent. For those, the workbook contains your editable data plus a high-resolution picture of the chart, and the download button says so.

Can I edit the chart in PowerPoint?

Yes, for the same 32 types: the slide holds a native chart with its data embedded, so you can right-click it and choose Edit Data. Other types are placed on the slide as a high-resolution picture, clearly labelled as not editable.

Which chart type should I use?

Use bars to compare categories, lines or areas for trends, scatter and bubble charts for relationships, pie, donut or treemap charts for shares of a whole, histograms and box plots for distributions, and Gantt or timeline charts for schedules.

Can I paste data from Excel or Google Sheets?

Yes. Copy the cells including the heading row and paste them into the import box, or import the .xlsx or .csv file directly.
