Features & Specs

  1. Build and edit charts natively in the deck

    Create and edit charts on the canvas in PowerPoint or Google Slides. Reopen any chart next month and change the numbers instead of rebuilding it.

  2. Generate it with your AI

    Prompt Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Claude Desktop or Antigravity and the chart lands on your open slide, ready to edit, with no copy and paste.

  3. Ship an HTML dashboard

    Ask Claude or ChatGPT for a dashboard or an HTML deck and every chart comes out editable. Drag one into your deck and keep editing.

  4. Stays editable

    Every chart reopens on the slide. Change the numbers without rebuilding it, and without the file it came from.

  5. Full business library

    Waterfall, bar mekko, marimekko, stacked bar, combo, line, area, pie, donut, scatter plot and more. Axes, breaks, annotations and brand defaults on every one.

Questions & Answers

As answered by people managing Chartbuddy.
  1. How would you describe the primary audience of Chartbuddy?

    Consultants, private equity and investment banking teams, and corporate strategy and finance teams. Associates and analysts still pasting chart images into decks, and IR and FP&A teams that have outgrown native presentation charting.

  2. Who are some of the biggest customers of Chartbuddy?

    Lunar Prosus Mollie Super Cint

  3. What makes Chartbuddy unique?

    The chart is built where the deck is. Open PowerPoint or Google Slides and the Chartbuddy editor runs inside it, so a waterfall or a marimekko is a native object in the presentation rather than a pasted image. Prompt Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Claude Desktop or Antigravity and the chart lands on that same open slide, ready to edit. Ask Claude or ChatGPT for an HTML dashboard and every chart in it stays editable too. Fourteen chart types, with axes, axis breaks, number formats, annotations and your brand defaults on all of them.

  4. Why should a person choose Chartbuddy over its competitors?

    Most AI tools hand you a flat image you cannot change. Native deck charting covers the basics. It does not cover the waterfall, mekko or marimekko that strategy and finance work runs on. A Chartbuddy chart is built in the deck and reopens there next month, so you change the numbers instead of rebuilding the chart. One subscription covers PowerPoint and Google Slides, and a chart generated from your AI tool arrives on the slide as a fully editable Chartbuddy chart rather than a picture of one.

  5. What's the story behind Chartbuddy?

    Two ex-Monitor Deloitte consultants saw charts become the bottleneck in AI-native finance and strategy work. They started with a Chrome extension that built waterfalls and mekkos natively in Google Slides, with full formatting control. PowerPoint followed, on the same subscription. Then Hub, a desktop app that puts a chart you prompt from your AI tool onto your open slide, and Embed, a package that keeps charts editable inside the HTML dashboards an AI writes. Built in Amsterdam.

  6. Which are the primary technologies used for building Chartbuddy?

    JavaScript across four products: a PowerPoint add-in that installs from the Home ribbon, a Chrome extension for Google Slides and the Google Sheets API, a desktop app for Mac and Windows that connects locally to your AI tool, and a JavaScript package for any HTML page. SOC 2 Type II certified, GDPR aligned, OAuth 2.0.
