Custom visuals for Power BISeriously good Power BI visuals.
Gantt charts with a real critical path, survey statistics a research agency would sign off, and a few things nobody asked for but everybody screenshots, like KPIs as weather and a scoreboard that plays your numbers as a match. Everything runs inside Power BI.
- 1Critical path and dependency arrows computed inside Power BI, no helper columns
- 2Plan-versus-actual baseline under every bar, progress as 0 to 1 or 0 to 100
- 3Collapsible hierarchy with owner, status and cost columns, zoom from years to weeks
- Nothing leaves the report
- no external calls, no API keys, no telemetry
- Never blocks a viewer
- no licence means the free tier, never a broken chart or a watermark
- Looks right on first drop
- the default render on sample data is already the screenshot
- Talks like your model
- real field and series names in the format pane, never "Series 1"
Serious ones, fun ones, and a few that are both.
Gantt ChartSchedules with a collapsible task hierarchy, dependency arrows, critical path and plan-vs-actual baselines — all computed locally inside Power BI.
Radar ChartCompare teams, products or KPIs on a scale that stays put — normalization for mixed units, targets, zones, four chart modes and small multiples.
Cohort RetentionRetention triangles from raw events — no period table, four denominators, three retention definitions, survival curves and honest handling of unobserved periods.
News TickerA scrolling strip of headlines, KPIs and alerts fed straight from your data model — badges, up and down deltas, cross-filtering and full keyboard access. Free.
Pareto ChartBars ranked by contribution, cumulative line, vital-few detection and an insight sentence, all computed in the visual — ABC zones, before/after comparison, a Minitab-style table and small multiples, no cumulative-percentage DAX to maintain.
CrosstabThe banner table every insights team ships, inside Power BI — questions as blocks, segments as columns, column % with A/B/C letters on weighted effective bases, net and mean rows, sticky headers and a 30,000-row banner that scrolls like a native table. Read the methodology
LikertDiverging stacked bars with the neutral split on the axis, N/A detached, top and bottom box nets, means, tracker mode and benchmark deltas — plus significance letters between segments on weighted effective bases. Read the methodology
NPSHeadline score, promoter / passive / detractor split and the trend over waves, with a significance test on every wave-over-wave change — so a +3 is reported as noise when it is noise. Segment letters, weighted NPS and a target line. Read the methodology
SmartVisuals ResearchThe three Research suite views over one survey table, switched inside the visual — weighting, significance letters, nets and means from the same engine, validated against R and scipy. Read the methodology
CountdownA countdown bound to your data that keeps ticking between refreshes — deadline board, milestone track, days since the last event with streak records, working days and time zones handled honestly. Free.
ScoreboardAny two teams, plants or measures played as a match — big scores, who leads and by how much, a game clock, goals as they come in and a league table from results. Built for wall screens, fully offline. Free.
Venn & UpSetArea-proportional Venn/Euler for up to three sets, UpSet from four, with % of base including "none of these", set queries and cross-filtering. Survey weights, significance, a duplication matrix and TURF reach in Premium.
Slope ChartSlope, dumbbell and bump charts straight from your model — labels that never overlap, rise / fall / flat colouring that knows when down is good, change annotations on every line and a headline written from your data. No DAX tricks.
TornadoBars that swing around your base case, sorted by swing, with each driver's assumptions at the bar ends and an insight sentence — plus butterflies, population pyramids and diverging stacked bars, picked from your fields.
Bullet ChartActual against target, forecast and prior year in one row — status bands, lower-is-better KPIs per row, pace to target, trend sparklines and IBCS variance, as rows, columns or KPI tiles. Bands, status and variance computed in the visual, no DAX.
KPI WeatherSunny, partly cloudy, rain or storm from actual vs target for unlimited KPIs, with trend arrow, sparkline and prior-year comparison. Premium Outlook forecasts the coming periods with the chance of meeting target — no DAX, no emoji.
Calendar HeatmapYear strips, a month grid and a weekday x hour punch card from one date column, with fiscal and ISO weeks, offline holidays for 21 countries, rules and pinned notes. Premium colours every day by target or last year, adds retail 4-4-5, small multiples and unusual days.
LeaderboardRanks readable from across the room, with movement against a comparison period that survives slicers, named tie rules, streaks and target pacing — no RANKX to maintain.
DistributionBox plot, violin, raincloud, ridgeline, beeswarm and histogram over the same fields, with quartiles that match your DAX. Premium adds significance between groups, confidence intervals, weights and Cp/Cpk per product line.
Box PlotBox and whisker plots with quartiles that match your DAX, four whisker rules, every observation behind the box, outliers marked by shape, Split By and reference lines. Premium adds significance between groups, notches and Cpk.
ViolinViolin, half, split, raincloud and ridgeline plots from a density you can defend: named bandwidth rules, Excel / DAX quartiles, percentile lines and a methods footnote. Significance between groups, six kernels and capability in Premium.
BeeswarmBeeswarm, jitter and strip plots where every point keeps its ID — hover for the record, click to filter — with a median, mean or slim box on top and cross-highlighting that keeps the whole. Significance letters, confidence intervals and capability in Premium.
HistogramNamed bin rules with round edges, your own bin edges, count, percent or density bars, normal and cumulative curves and percentile lines — dynamic in the Service, no DAX. Spec limits from measures, Cp, Cpk, Cpm and ppm out of spec in Premium.
Waterfall & PVMA complete waterfall with subtotals, variance bridges and IBCS notation, free. Premium splits the change into volume, mix, price, currency, new and lost items from units and revenue, reconciled to the cent — no DAX.
Org ChartBind employee and manager ids and the whole organization appears, with missing managers and loops explained, never an error — branch view, search, photos and dotted lines free. Premium adds headcount and cost roll-ups, span of control, snapshot comparison and reorg scenarios.
Date SlicerCalendar, timeline or compact bar with presets that keep rolling after you publish, fiscal years, ISO weeks and holidays for 21 countries. Premium Period intelligence adds comparison periods for your measures, working-day filters and retail 4-4-5 years.
Year in ReviewBold story cards written from your data: peak month, week and day, top lists, streaks, records, milestones and a personality for the year, in English, Czech or German. Premium judges the year against last year, the target and the team.
Split-Flap BoardYour table as a real flip board — only the characters that changed flip on refresh, status lamps of their own shape, a DAX status measure, auto-paging and a live clock for wall screens. Fully offline. Free.
Data FreshnessLast refresh time and status, data coverage and freshness, shown in each reader's own time zone — business time, refresh schedules, many sources and states you can read without colour. No network calls. Free.
AI ChatbotAsk questions in natural language and get instant charts, insights, and DAX measures right inside your reports.
Depth you can actually configure.
Collapse a phase and the roll-up bar keeps its progress. Zoom to weeks and the dependency arrows follow. Every element you see has a control in the format pane, labelled with your real field names, and cards that do nothing for the fields you mapped stay hidden.
Five promises every visual keeps.
If one of ours breaks a rule, tell us. It is a bug, and it gets fixed.
- 01Cover the category, then the gaps.Everything people expect from the chart type, plus the things they keep rebuilding in DAX because nobody shipped them.
- 02Presentable with zero configuration.The default render on sample data has to look like the screenshot. If it needs ten tweaks to be shown, it is not done.
- 03A format pane that reads like your model.Real series and field names, never "Series 1". Everything drawn on screen is adjustable, and explicit choices survive a theme switch.
- 04Nothing leaves the report.Every feature runs inside the visual: no external calls, no API keys, no telemetry. Built to Microsoft's certification requirements from the first line.
- 05Missing something? Say so.Every message reaches the person who builds the visuals. Requests go on the list, and most land in the next release.
