Chart types
Every format in the library, grouped by the job it does. Picking the right one is most of what makes a statistic land — a ranking wants bars, a probability wants a grid, and a share of a total wants neither.

Retention
Built to be watched rather than studied — these work on a muted, scrolling feed.
- Big numberOne enormous count-up figure that lands with a flourish, with a line of context and an optional scale against a comparison.
- VersusA head-to-head duel: two numbers counting up against each other on a tug-of-war bar, a crown for the winner on the verdict.
- Tier listS/A/B/C/D rows, with items thrown in from an unranked tray.
- Quiz revealA question, a draining countdown ring, then the answer, struck out option by option.
- Odds grid“1 in N” drawn as a dot grid with exactly one lit cell.
- TickerOdometer counters ticking at real-world rates, with every event drawn as a dot.
- Stat cardsThree to seven fact cards sliding through with a progress row.

Comparison
For comparing quantities and showing how a whole splits into parts.
- Ranked barsHorizontal bars sorted by final value.
- PodiumA top-three, medal-style ranking.
- Dot plotOne precise point per item on a shared axis.
- DonutA share-of-total ring that builds slice by slice, then pulls the key slice out.
- TreemapRectangles sized by share of the total — as a snapshot, a before-and-after morph, a two-level sector map or a zoom into one tile.
- Stacked barsComposition across categories, optionally as 100% stacks.
- WaffleA 100-square grid split across up to six groups.
- PictogramAn icon array showing a value out of a total.
- Diverging barsBars growing left and right from a zero axis, gainers and losers coloured apart.
- RadarOne to three overlaid polygons across three to eight attributes.
- Bubble packPacked circles sized by area.
- 2 videosLeaderboardAn auto-scrolling countdown through a long ranked list.
- World mapA dot-matrix world map: circle size and a flag mark each country's value, and the camera follows the narration from country to country.

Trend
For change over time, flow through a process, and the shape of a distribution.
- LineAn animated line reveal for one or more series.
- AreaA filled trend, optionally stacked or shown as shares of 100%.
- 1 videoBar raceHorizontal bars reordering as values change across frames.
- SlopeA two-point before-and-after comparison per item.
- WaterfallStart, contributions, end: each step peels off a running total, and the payoff brackets how far the end landed from the start.
- FunnelA true-width drop-off funnel: a stream of dots spills out at every step, a live counter falls stage by stage, and the leakiest step cracks open at the end.
- ScatterPoints revealed against two axes, with an optional fitted trendline, the gap to it for the story point, and a refit without that point.
- HistogramFrequency bars across bins.
- Matrix heatmapA grid coloured by value: a matrix, a calendar, a before/after pair, or warming-style stripes.
- TimelineMilestones landing along a rail, spaced by elapsed time.
- PyramidBack-to-back bars by cohort, read as a shape.
