About Chart Maker
Chart Maker is a free online tool for turning raw label-value pairs into publication-ready charts without installing any software. Enter your data directly, import a CSV file, or use one of the built-in sample sets, then choose from seven chart types — bar, line, pie, area, scatter plot, histogram, and radar — to find the visual that best tells your data story.
Every rendering decision stays in your hands: pick one of six colour presets (from a minimal monochrome palette to vivid sunset tones), add a title and optional subtitle, and toggle grid lines, a legend, and per-bar or per-slice data labels on or off. When you are satisfied, one click exports a PNG file named after your chart title, ready to drop into a slide deck, report, or social post.
Because everything runs in your browser through the Chart.js library, none of your figures ever reach a server. There is no account to create, no upload step, and no usage cap — you can build and export as many charts as you need, with sensitive numbers staying entirely on your own device.
Key Features
Seven chart types in one place
Switch between bar, line, pie, area, scatter plot, histogram, and radar chart without leaving the page. The data you entered carries over automatically when you change types.
CSV import for existing spreadsheet data
Paste comma- or tab-separated rows directly from a spreadsheet and the tool parses each label-value pair instantly, skipping the manual re-entry that other online chart builders require.
Six colour presets with live preview
Choose from Monochrome, Blue Ocean, Forest Green, Sunset, Purple Rain, or Coral Reef. The canvas updates in real time so you can compare palettes before committing.
Toggleable grid lines, legend, and data labels
Fine-tune what appears on the chart canvas using individual checkboxes. Turn off grid lines for a clean presentation look, or enable data labels to show exact values on each bar or slice.
PNG export with your chart title as the filename
Click Export PNG and the chart is saved to your downloads folder named after the title you set, making it straightforward to keep multiple charts organised by name.
No server, no account, no cost
All rendering happens in your browser via Chart.js. Your data is never transmitted anywhere, making this safe for internal KPIs, client figures, or any numbers you prefer to keep off third-party servers.
How to Use

Add labels and values for each data point, or import data from CSV. Use the sample data to get started quickly.
Choose Chart Type & Style
Select from 7 chart types (bar, line, pie, area, scatter, histogram, radar) and pick a colour preset that matches your needs.
Customize & Export
Toggle options like grid lines, legends, and data labels. Then export your chart as a PNG image or view it in fullscreen.
Example
Monthly sales figures entered as label-value pairs produce a labelled bar chart. The same data can be switched to a line or area chart without re-entering anything.

Slide deck charts without Excel or Google Sheets
When you need a single chart for a presentation and opening a full spreadsheet app is overkill, paste the numbers here, pick a matching colour scheme, and export a PNG in under a minute.

Comparing categorical survey results with a bar chart
Survey responses with named categories and counts map directly to label-value pairs. A bar chart shows the spread at a glance in a way that a pie chart would obscure when there are more than five options.

Visualising a time-series trend with a line or area chart
Monthly revenue, weekly signups, or daily active users follow a natural sequence. The line and area chart types preserve that order and show the slope of change, which is harder to read in bar or pie form.

Quick distribution check with a histogram
When you have a set of numeric bins and their frequencies, the histogram mode renders them as adjacent bars with no gap — the standard convention for frequency distributions — without needing a dedicated statistics tool.

Multi-metric performance snapshot with a radar chart
Radar charts show how a single subject scores across several dimensions at once, making them useful for team performance reviews, product feature comparisons, or skill gap analyses where all metrics share the same scale.
