Turn a Dense Idea into One Infographic
Most infographics are documents wearing a costume. A good one makes a single claim that can be understood in five seconds and verified in thirty.
Start with the claim
Write it as a sentence: "Teams lose 40% of trial users before they reach the pricing page." Everything on the canvas either supports that sentence or gets cut.
Choose one structure
- Flow — input, transformation, output
- Comparison — two columns, one axis
- Stack — layers of a system
- Timeline — before, during, after
Prompts
Structure: "Here is my claim and my five data points. Which single structure fits best, and what should I cut?"
