Verified working Jul 31, 2026

A web editor for publishing polished charts, maps, and tables.

Datawrapper is an online visualization tool for turning datasets into embeddable charts, maps, and tables without writing code. It is built for publication workflows, with responsive previews, accessibility-minded defaults, team collaboration, brand themes, and one-click republishing for updates or corrections.

Why it stands out

  • Strong fit for editorial publishing, with examples from major newsrooms and research organizations.
  • Accessibility and responsive behavior are treated as default design concerns, not add-ons.
  • Team workflows go beyond simple sharing, including comments, folders, custom defaults, and organization-level settings.
  • Published visuals can be updated or reverted without requiring a full republishing process elsewhere.
  • Supports multiple output contexts, including websites, presentations, print, and mobile layouts.

Good to know

  • It is a visualization builder, not a data discovery portal; users still need to bring and prepare their own data.
  • Advanced organization features such as SSO, centralized management, and self-hosting are aimed at teams rather than casual individual use.
  • Design flexibility is extensive but remains within Datawrapper’s editor and theme system, not a fully custom coding canvas.

Under the radar: You can start building a visualization before creating an account, which is useful for testing whether your dataset and chart type fit the workflow before committing to setup.
