Fast facts
How it works
From idea to insight in minutes
Start or use AI
Choose Bubble, then describe your goal (metrics for X, Y, size; categories for color). The AI drafts a complete chart.
“Plot satisfaction vs revenue; bubble size = customers; categories: Technology, Healthcare, Finance.”
Add or edit data
Type or paste values for X, Y, size, label, and category. Use the Categories editor to manage groups.
Product A = X:72, Y:88, Size:2100, Category: Technology
Tune the view
Set axis ranges, toggle labels, grid, and legend. Pick a color scheme (single, by category, or size gradient).
Show legend, category colors, labels at 12px, bubble opacity 0.8
Zoom, export, share
Enable zoom/pan for exploration. Download PNG/SVG, copy a link, or embed in your site.

Who this is for
Clear comparisons with three variables—ideal for product, research, and strategy teams
Feature impact vs effort
Plot effort on X, impact on Y, and bubble size as revenue or users to prioritize roadmaps.
Account health mapping
Visualize fit vs engagement; use bubble size for pipeline value and color by segment.
Risk and return analysis
Compare portfolios with expected return vs volatility; size bubbles by allocation; color by class.
Outcomes vs cost
Map treatment effectiveness vs cost; scale by sample size; color by category or cohort.

Bubble chart FAQs
What is a bubble chart and when should I use one?
A bubble chart plots three dimensions at once: X, Y, and bubble size. Use it to compare groups and spot correlations, clusters, and outliers. Add categories to color‑code bubbles for faster reading.
How does the AI bubble chart maker work?
Describe your goal and variables. The AI drafts bubbles, sets axis ranges, chooses category colors, and proposes labels and legend visibility. You can fine‑tune any setting, including grid, opacity, font size, and bubble size limits.
Can I control axis ranges and bubble sizes?
Yes. Set X and Y minimums and maximums or keep auto. Adjust minimum and maximum bubble size to reduce overlap and keep small values visible. Stroke width and opacity help with dense plots.
How do I add labels and a legend?
Toggle labels to show names or values and adjust label font size for readability. Turn on the legend to map category colors clearly. Both options are available in Display Settings.
Does this bubble graph creator support categories and color schemes?
Yes. Create categories in the Categories editor and pick a color scheme: single color, by category, or size gradient. The legend updates to reflect your choice.
