What is a Pie Chart?
A pie chart is a circular diagram divided into slices, where each slice represents a category's share of a whole. It's the go-to visual for showing proportions and percentage breakdowns at a glance. Use a pie chart when you have a small number of categories and want your audience to immediately see how each part contributes to the total.
Key Features
Flexible Label Styles
Show labels inside slices, outside with connecting lines, or hide them entirely. Display the name, value, percentage, or any combination.
Exploded Slices
Pull individual slices away from the center to highlight a specific segment without changing the underlying data.
Donut Mode
Adjust the inner radius to convert any pie chart into a donut chart — useful for adding a total or key figure in the center.
Custom Colors & Corner Radius
Assign any color to each slice and add corner rounding for a modern, polished look that fits your brand.
AI-Powered Generation
Describe your data in plain English and the AI builds the pie chart instantly — no spreadsheet setup required.

When to Use
- You have 2–7 categories — more slices become unreadable
- Each category is a distinct part of a single whole that totals 100%
- Your audience needs to see proportions quickly, not exact values
- One or two segments dominate and you want that contrast to stand out
- Your viewers are non-technical and need a familiar, easy-to-read format
Common Mistakes
- Too many slices — beyond 6–7 categories it becomes unreadable; group smaller items into an 'Other' slice
- Comparing multiple pie charts side-by-side — use a stacked bar chart instead, which makes cross-group proportions far easier to read
- Starting the first slice at an odd angle — begin at 12 o'clock (0°) so the largest slice is immediately visible
- Charting data that doesn't sum to a meaningful whole — pie charts only work when all slices represent parts of one total
- Omitting value or percentage labels — readers can't reliably judge slice angles; always show the number
- Heavy 3D effects that distort perception — slices near the viewer appear larger than they are; use 3D only for decorative contexts
