"Split by Series" Added to XY Chart

You can now split XY charts into separate vertical panels per series when multiple series are configured. Each panel uses its own independent Y-axis scale, making it easy to compare metrics with different units or vastly different value ranges side by side.

Highlights

  • Independent panel per series: When multiple series are defined, a "Split display by series" option becomes available. Enabling it arranges each series in its own vertical panel with an independent Y-axis, so you can read each metric accurately without overlapping scales.

Use Cases

  • Compare trends of revenue (¥) and conversion rate (%) side by side in a single view

  • Monitor KPIs across multiple products or channels in aligned panels

  • Visualize absolute values alongside ratios where scale differences would otherwise distort the chart

For setup details, see the support documentation.

We hope this helps you get more out of your data analysis!

Grid Layout is Now Available

We've added a new display mode called Grid Layout to the Frame feature. It splits your chart by the values of a selected column and displays multiple small charts side by side. Since each chart shares the same axes and scale, it's easy to spot trends and differences across categories or time periods at a glance.

Highlights

  • View up to 16 frames in a grid: Charts are split based on the values of a selected column and displayed in a grid. The number of columns is automatically adjusted to keep the layout as close to square as possible.

  • Switch between Grid and Timeline layouts: You can toggle between Grid Layout and Timeline Layout (with playback controls) using the same frame settings. Use Timeline to trace changes over time, or Grid to get a full overview — whichever fits your analysis.

Use cases

  • Compare sales trends across regions, stores, or product categories on a single screen

  • Evaluate conversion rates side by side by owner or channel

  • Spot seasonality by viewing monthly or weekly KPIs across periods

Word Cloud is Now Available

We’ve added a new chart type: Word Cloud. It provides an intuitive way to represent aggregated text data through word size, making it easy to spot frequently appearing keywords and important trends at a glance.

Key features

  • Selectable font-size scaling methods

    Choose from three scaling options: linear, square root, and logarithmic. By adjusting the scaling to match your data distribution, you can optimize the layout for better readability.

  • Fine-grained control over font size range and spacing

    You can adjust the font size range and spacing between words to suit different use cases.

  • Color linked to values

    By default, colors change according to the magnitude of the values, allowing the chart to convey data intensity through both size and color.

  • Frame feature supported

    You can switch between word clouds by category or time period, making comparisons easier.

Use cases

  • Quickly identify key issue themes by analyzing frequently occurring keywords in inquiries or reviews

  • Visually compare access counts or purchase counts by product tag

  • Use category distributions from survey responses in presentations for executives

New Frame Feature Added

We've added a Frame feature that lets you split and switch chart views by the values of a specific column. You can now explore how data changes over time or compare across categories using a slider or animated playback — making it easier than ever to tell compelling stories with your data. Give it a try!

Key Features

  • Slider & Animation Playback: Use the frame controls at the bottom of the chart to manually step through frames or play them as an animation, giving you an intuitive view of how data evolves

  • Unified Axis Scaling: To make cross-frame comparisons easier, the Y-axis range, bubble size scale, and heatmap color scale are shared across all frames by default

  • Independent Scale Option: You can switch to per-frame independent scaling via Advanced Settings > Frame > Independent Axis Scale

Use Cases

  • Animate monthly or quarterly sales trends to highlight growth patterns in presentations

  • Step through regional or product category performance comparisons with a slider

  • Visualize how correlations shift over time using an animated bubble chart

    : Specify a dimension column to freely define the stages and categories you want to analyze

  • Cumulative value display

    : Track the running total at each stage, from starting value to final result

Use Cases

  • P&L analysis

    : Clearly show the flow from opening balance through revenue, expenses, and other changes to the closing balance

  • Cash flow visualization

    : Break down cash inflows and outflows by factor to understand how funds moved over a period

  • Budget vs. actuals

    : Highlight the sources of variance step by step to pinpoint the root causes of discrepancies

Signed Embed SDK is Now Available

We’ve launched our JavaScript SDK, for integrating Signed Embed into web applications. By covering processes that previously required custom implementation, the SDK enables a more stable embedding experience with significantly less effort. Give it a try!

Key features

  • Automatic token refresh: Automatically fetches a new token before the current one expires, preventing errors while users are interacting with the embedded content.

  • Loading state control: Handles loading state UI behavior to reduce implementation overhead.

  • Less effort, more stability: Offloads common logic to the SDK so you can keep your codebase smaller while ensuring reliable behavior.

Signed Embed is an optional add-on for the Enterprise plan.
