Ask for a chart or a diagram right in the chat

The job: See your week or a process at a glance instead of in a wall of text

Claude can draw charts and diagrams right in its answer. Paste a small table and ask for a chart, or describe how a job moves through your office and ask for a diagram. It's in beta for everyone on the web and the desktop app; the visuals don't show in the phone apps.

How

  1. Paste a small table, like calls or jobs per day for the last month, with no customer names.
  2. Ask for a chart, or ask for a diagram of how a call turns into a booked job.
  3. To keep it, copy it as an image, download it or save it as an artifact. Visuals aren't saved on their own.

The prompt to copy

Chart this so I can see which days are busiest: [paste table]. Then tell me in two sentences what stands out.

What a good answer looks like

A clear chart and two plain sentences you could say at the Monday meeting.

The mistake to avoid

Sharing a chart you didn't check. Compare two of its numbers with your table first.

ChatGPT can make charts too.
