Step 1

Edit any sentence where it sits, change the look, then send one link.
Written for the reader, tied to the data
A story is a dashboard with its explanation attached, so the two never drift apart.
Numbers that stay right
Figures in the text are filled from the chart’s own data. When the data refreshes, the figures update with it.
Words you can change
Click a heading or paragraph and type. Change a chart, and one click rewrites its chapter to match.
One link to send
Share a story the same way as a dashboard. On a phone the chart stays on top while the text scrolls under it.
