Visualization engines
Sourcetable uses three visualization engines, each suited to different use cases:
The AI selects the best engine automatically based on what you ask for. You can also specify a preference.
Creating visualizations
With AI (recommended)
Open the AI chat (Cmd+\ / Ctrl+\) and describe the visualization:
- “Create a bar chart of revenue by quarter”
- “Show a heatmap of correlations between all numeric columns”
- “Build a Sankey diagram showing customer journey from signup to purchase”
- “Make a candlestick chart of AAPL stock price for the last 6 months”
From the toolbar
- Select your data range (including headers)
- Click Insert > Chart
- Choose a chart type
- Configure axes, series, colors, and labels in the chart editor
Modifying visualizations
After creating a chart, ask the AI to modify it:- “Change the colors to a warm palette”
- “Add data labels showing percentages”
- “Switch to a stacked bar chart”
- “Add a trend line”
- “Make the y-axis logarithmic”
