Radar chart FAQs

What is a radar (spider) comparison chart?

A radar chart, also called a spider chart, plots multiple variables on axes starting from one center. It’s ideal for comparing profiles of items across the same set of metrics.

How does the radar (spider) comparison chart generator work?

Describe your comparison and the AI proposes axes and series. Then add or paste your values, adjust legend, grid, dots, fill, and labels, and export or share.

Can I compare multiple series on one radar chart?

Yes. Add multiple series to visualize how each item performs across the same axes. Use the legend to keep mappings clear.

Polygon vs circle grid—what should I choose?

Polygon grids align with axis lines for crisp reading, while circle grids give a softer look. Pick the style that makes scale steps easiest for your audience.

How many axes are best for readability?

Five to eight axes usually balance detail and clarity. More axes can clutter labels; use concise names and adjust label font size if needed.
