In their own words
Datastory
Datastory turns data into interactive charts, data-driven web applications, and presentations published as stories. Its AI can interpret uploaded data, recommend visualizations, identify insights, and draft captions based on workspace data. A chart picker reads columns and suggests encodings for categorical, temporal, geographic, or hierarchical data. Visualizations can be shared as standalone links, embedded in websites, or exported as high-quality images. Embedding is also described for Notion, Webflow, newsletters, and content management systems. An Open Data catalog includes statistics from sources such as OECD, WHO, Eurostat, the World Bank, and the UN. The web-based Starter plan is free and includes 10 visualizations, up to 3 team members, 100 AI credits per month, and unlimited open data downloads. Professional costs $15 a month per user and includes unlimited visualizations and collaborators, 1000 AI credits per month, priority support, and custom branding. Enterprise pricing is custom. Datastory is based in Stockholm and was founded in 2005.
