What it is, and why we rate it

One line each. Open a row for detail.

What it really isA web app for publishing clean, responsive charts, maps and tables from spreadsheet data.

Our takeDatawrapper made its name in newsrooms because it produces charts that read well on a phone with very little fiddling.

The free plan is more than a demo: unlimited users, unlimited views, and embeds you can publish today. You pay to remove the credit line and to export vector files. If you need dashboards on live company data, look at a BI tool instead.

Why we rate itA generous free plan and fast, mobile-friendly results with almost no learning curve.

The catchFree charts carry a credit, vector export needs Pro, and custom themes cost $499 a month extra.

Time to value
Minutes: paste data, pick a chart, publish.
Scale breakpoint
Removing attribution and vector export are per user on Pro; brand themes are a costly add-on.
Walled garden
Low: PNG export on Free, PDF/SVG on Pro, and embeds; Enterprise can self-host published visualizations.

Still a fit?

If none of these block you, start on the free plan.
