Create beautiful data visualizations by simply @mentioning your data files and specifying the chart type you want. Support for bar charts, line graphs, pie charts, geographic maps, scatter plots and more!

Just type something like "@sales_data.csv create a bar chart showing monthly revenue" or "@population.csv make a map visualization of population density by region" - our AI will handle the data transformation and create the perfect visualization.

Supported Chart Types

• Bar Charts - Great for comparing categories (@sales.csv create bar chart of sales by product)
• Line & Area Charts - Perfect for showing trends over time (@metrics.csv make line graph of monthly users)
• Pie & Sunburst Charts - Ideal for showing hierarchical proportions (@budget.csv create sunburst chart of nested expense categories)
• Treemap & Icicle Charts - Visualize hierarchical data (@org.csv make treemap of department sizes)
• Funnel Charts - Show stages in a process (@sales.csv create funnel of sales pipeline)
• Distribution Plots - Histograms, box plots, violin plots for statistical analysis (@measurements.csv plot distribution of values)
• Maps (Multiple Types):
  • Choropleth maps for regions (@demographics.csv create choropleth of population by state)
  • Scatter & density maps (@locations.csv plot density map of store locations)
  • Line maps for routes (@shipping.csv show delivery routes on map)
• 3D Visualizations - Scatter and line plots in three dimensions (@sensor_data.csv make 3d scatter of x,y,z coordinates)
• Multi-dimensional Analysis:
  • Scatter matrix for multiple variables (@dataset.csv create scatter matrix)
  • Parallel coordinates (@features.csv plot parallel coordinates)
  • Parallel categories for categorical data
• Polar Charts - Circular visualizations (@wind.csv create polar chart of wind direction)
• Ternary Plots - For three-variable compositions (@mixture.csv make ternary plot)
• Text Analysis:
  • Word clouds (@text.csv generate word cloud)
  • Text summaries (@documents.csv create text summary)
• Tables & Summaries - For detailed data inspection (@data.csv show summary table)
• Correlation Analysis - Visualize relationships between variables (@metrics.csv plot correlation matrix)

Data Transformations

Our AI can automatically handle common data transformations:

• Aggregating by time periods (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly)
• Grouping and summarizing by categories
• Calculating percentages and proportions
• Filtering outliers and handling missing data
• Geographic coordinate mapping
• Statistical calculations (mean, median, standard deviation)

Example Commands

Try these natural language commands with your data files:

• "@sales_2023.csv create monthly revenue trend line graph"
• "@customer_data.csv show pie chart of customers by region"
• "@inventory.csv make bar chart of top 10 products by units sold"
• "@weather_stations.csv plot temperature heat map for the past week"
• "@marketing.csv graph conversion rates by channel as bars"
