DATA STORY STUDIO

Make the change visible.

Build a bar-chart race from a dataset you trust. Preview every frame, edit every value, then export a video or still.

One video export

Pay once for one finished video export. $30 standard, or $10 with an active Business plan.

How it works

1
Data

Upload CSV or Excel, paste a table, or pick World Bank open data (GDP, population, CO₂…). Real numbers only: the AI writes titles and matches country names and colours, but never invents values.
2
Style

Title, unit, source (required), top 5–20, seconds per year, light or dark theme, a topic picture, optional music you own.
3
Preview

A live bar chart race: flag-coloured bars, flags at the bar ends, values ticking, smooth overtakes, big year counter.
4
Export

MP4 in square 1080×1080, vertical 1080×1920 for Reels, TikTok and WhatsApp Status, or landscape 1920×1080 for YouTube and X, plus a PNG poster.

Historical flags

USSR, Yugoslavia and other past countries show their correct flags for long time series.

Fast, private rendering

Videos are made in your browser.

Plans

Trial and Starter exports carry a “Made with OfficeGen Pro” watermark; Professional and Business export 1080p without it; Business adds your own logo.
