Download ShiftWhat is Infogram?
Infogram is a web-based data visualization and infographic platform for creating charts, maps, reports, dashboards, infographics, and other visual content. It’s designed for marketers, journalists, analysts, educators, researchers, and business teams that want to turn data into clear, engaging visuals without advanced design or coding skills.
Infogram supports interactive charts and maps, custom tooltips, clickable elements, animations, brand kits, templates, and real-time team collaboration. It can also import data from Excel or CSV files, Google Sheets, JSON feeds, and supported databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, Amazon Redshift, Oracle, and Microsoft SQL Server.
Projects can be published as responsive web embeds or downloaded in formats including PNG, JPG, PDF, GIF, and MP4, depending on your plan. Infogram also includes AI-assisted tools that can suggest chart types, generate layouts, and help turn data into visual content more quickly.
How Infogram works in Shift
Adding Infogram to Shift keeps your visual projects alongside the other tools you use to collect, analyze, and publish data. Add Infogram to a dedicated Space with your spreadsheets, analytics tools, project-management apps, CMS, or cloud storage so everything related to a report or campaign stays organized together.
If you work across multiple Infogram accounts or projects, Shift helps keep those different workflows accessible without repeatedly signing in and out. You can also create separate Spaces for recurring reports, client projects, marketing campaigns, or editorial work.
Pair Infogram with tools like Google Sheets, Google Drive, your CMS, or project-management software so you can move between source data, visual editing, review, and publishing without searching through a crowded collection of browser tabs.
