About Chart Maker
Chart Maker turns a short table of numbers into a clean bar, line, pie or scatter chart you can download as a PNG. Type or paste your rows — a label and a value on each line — pick a chart type, and it draws the chart for you, sized to your numbers. That makes it a fast way to get a chart graphic for a slide, a report or a quick figure without opening a spreadsheet or signing into a heavier charting app.
It draws four chart types from the same paste-in box: a bar chart to compare categories, a line chart for a trend over time, a pie chart for parts of a whole (with auto-colored slices and a percentage legend), and a scatter plot for the relationship between two numbers — for scatter you paste "x, y" pairs instead of "label, value". Switch type with one toggle and the live preview redraws instantly. It does not build flow charts, process diagrams, tournament brackets or maps — those need a dedicated diagram tool — and it draws a single data series (one column of numbers), not grouped or stacked comparisons. Where it earns its place is the everyday case: a small table you just need drawn and saved as an image, fast.
Everything happens in your browser. The chart is generated from the numbers you type and saved straight to your device, so nothing is uploaded to a server and your data never leaves your computer. There is no account, no sign-up, no watermark on the image and no limit on how many charts you make.
Frequently asked questions
- Is it free to use?
- Yes. Making and downloading charts is free, with no account, no sign-up and no cap on how many you make.
- How do I make a chart?
- Pick bar, line, pie or scatter, then enter your labels and their numbers, one pair per row (for scatter, one "x, y" pair per row). The chart redraws as you type. When it looks right, download it as a PNG.
- How do I download my chart as a PNG?
- Once the chart looks right, use the Download PNG button to save it as an image straight to your device. The file has no watermark, so you can drop it into a slide or document as-is.
- Can I paste data from a spreadsheet?
- Yes. You can type your rows by hand or paste them in, with one label and one value per row, so copying a small table out of a spreadsheet works fine.
- What kind of chart does it make?
- Four kinds: a bar chart to compare categories, a line chart for a trend, a pie chart for parts of a whole (with a percentage legend), and a scatter plot for two numbers per point. Each draws one data series and saves as a PNG. It is built for small, straightforward tables rather than large datasets.
- Can I make a pie chart or circle chart with this?
- Yes. Choose Pie, enter each slice as a label and a value, and it draws the slices with automatic colors and a legend showing each one's percentage of the total. Download it as a PNG like any other chart.
- Can it make a flow chart, workflow or process diagram?
- No. It charts numbers (as bars, lines, pie slices or points), not steps or connections, so it does not build flow charts, workflow, process or algorithm diagrams. Those layouts need a diagramming tool.
- Can I build a tournament chart or bracket?
- No. A tournament chart is a bracket of matchups, which is a different layout altogether. This tool plots labels and values, so it cannot draw brackets.
- Does it make a map chart?
- No. It does not plot data onto a map or by geography — it only turns your labels and numbers into bar, line, pie or scatter charts. A map chart needs a mapping tool that understands regions.
- How many rows or categories can I chart?
- It works best with a handful of rows — a short list of labels and their values. For dozens of categories or several data series at once, a full spreadsheet or charting app will handle it better.
- Is my data uploaded anywhere?
- No. The chart is generated in your browser from the numbers you type, so your data stays on your own device and is never sent to a server.
- Is there a watermark or a limit on charts?
- No. The downloaded PNG has no watermark, and there is no sign-up or limit — you can make and save as many charts as you like.
