Features

Live Preview Builder Everything updates as you type. Change a title, adjust a number, toggle a section — the preview on the right reflects it instantly. No refresh, no export-to-preview cycle.

4 Slide Layouts Choose the right structure for each slide independently: Chart Only, Chart + Bullets, Chart + Stats Panel, or Bullets Only. Mix and match across slides.

3 Chart Types Bar, Line, and Bar + Line Dual-Axis. The dual-axis chart overlays a line dataset on a second Y-axis — ideal for pairing revenue with growth rate, volume with margin, or any two metrics at different scales.

Per-Slide KPI Banner Up to 6 KPI cards per slide, each with a value and label. Toggle them on or off per slide. Fully editable from the panel.

10 Built-In Color Themes Navy & Gold, Forest & Amber, Slate & Coral, Midnight & Cyan, Charcoal & Gold, Navy & Emerald, Burgundy & Gold, Ocean & Sand, Plum & Rose Gold, and Graphite & Electric. One click to apply any theme across your entire presentation.

Custom Theme Builder Not finding the right palette? Pick your own Primary, Accent, and Slide Background colours using colour pickers or hex codes. Supporting colours (card backgrounds, borders, insight strip) are auto-derived so everything stays cohesive.

Full Typography Control Choose heading and body fonts independently from a curated list. Adjust font sizes individually for slide titles, KPI values and labels, chart titles and subtitles, bullet text, stat values and labels, and the insight strip — all in real time.

Insight Strip A configurable callout bar at the bottom of every slide for your key takeaway. Toggle it on or off globally, edit the text, or use it as a footnote or source citation.
Stats Panel A right-side card column for spotlight metrics — large numbers, bold labels. Perfect for leading indicators you want to stand out from the chart.

Live Edit Mode Click the ✏️ button to edit any text directly on the slide — titles, subtitles, KPI values, bullet points, chart titles, stats — without touching the panel. Changes sync back to the builder automatically.

Multi-Slide Support Add as many slides as you need. Each slide has its own title, layout, chart, KPI set, bullets, and stats. Navigate between slides in the preview with one click.

Collapsible Builder Panel Hide the left panel entirely for a full-width preview. Useful when reviewing a finished deck or presenting directly from the builder.

Save as Standalone HTML Export your finished presentation as a self-contained HTML file. The saved file runs in any browser with no dependencies — send it to a client, open it on any computer, or archive it permanently.

Open / Restore Dashboard Load any previously saved dashboard file back into the builder with full fidelity — all slides, data, themes, and typography restored exactly as you left them. Drag-and-drop or file picker.

Print Ready The saved presentation file includes print CSS. Header and footer hide, background drops to white, and the slide fills the page cleanly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an internet connection? Only to load the fonts and chart library on first open. After that it works offline.

Can I use this for client work? Yes. Single-user commercial use is included. You may not resell or redistribute the file itself.

Will it work on a Mac? Yes. Any browser on any operating system.

Can I add my own logo or branding? The organization name, colour theme, and fonts are fully customizable. Image/logo embedding is not currently supported.

How many slides can I create? There is no hard limit, though very large decks (20+ slides) may slow the live preview slightly.
