Infographic makers turn numbers, process steps and short text into a single shareable graphic, and the products here range from poster editors to chart tools and science-figure libraries.
Prices are mostly published, but the export formats, credit lines and seat rules behind them differ. This guide ranks eleven on setup effort, real price, exit and independence.
Vendors can pay for more visibility on this website, for example a higher place in a ranking or more room on a page. Commercial relationships can also affect which products we feature and how prominently. Every vendor link is marked the same, whatever the arrangement behind it. How that works.
In short
What infographic makers software does
Infographic maker software provides templates, icons and chart objects in a browser editor so non-designers can combine data and text into one graphic exported as an image, PDF or embed.
Each infographic makers tool was put through the same five questions, in sequence: how hard is setup, what does it really cost, how does data come back out, can you leave, and who is it for. Top three places belong to challengers outside the best-known brands whenever possible, and incumbents follow from four. For why these five were chosen, and why nothing here gets a numeric score, see how we work.

Infographic-first template editor from a Canadian company, with published tiers
Ranked #1 of 11 in Best Infographic Makers in 2026.

Infographic maker software provides templates, icons and chart objects in a browser editor so non-designers can combine data and text into one graphic exported as an image, PDF or embed. A feature table will not settle this choice. These steps will.
01
Decide whether you need a published price
Prices are public at 10 products (Venngage, Piktochart, Vizzlo, Datawrapper, Snappa, Infogram, Visme, Genially, Flourish, BioRender) and on request at the remaining 1, so budget time for quotes if your favourite is in that second group.
02
Weigh the vendor's home jurisdiction
3 regions are represented (Europe 5, North America 3, Elsewhere 3). A vendor outside your own legal area is not a problem as such, but it changes who can compel it to hand over data.
Venngage, Piktochart and Visme sell the layout; Datawrapper and Infogram sell the data
Infographic makers split into two jobs that look alike in screenshots. Venngage, Piktochart and Visme start from a poster or report template and expect you to type the numbers in. Datawrapper, Infogram, Vizzlo and Flourish start from a dataset, and produce charts, maps and tables that you then embed or place in a layout.
BioRender and Mind the Graph serve a third reader, the research journal. Choosing a data tool for a one-page poster wastes the layout, while choosing a layout tool for a monthly report means retyping every figure. Write down how often the numbers change and who supplies them before opening a single trial.
Count how many times per year the underlying numbers change.
List who types them: the designer, an analyst or a spreadsheet.
Decide whether the output is a printed sheet or a live embed.
Export is where the free plans end: PNG, PDF and PowerPoint
Free plans in this market cap what leaves the tool. Piktochart allows two PNG downloads on Free, Snappa three downloads a month, and Venngage gives PNG only from Premium, with PDF and PowerPoint reserved for Business. Visme holds PowerPoint and HTML5 for Business too.
Genially keeps PDF, JPG and offline files for Pro, and Datawrapper keeps PDF and SVG for Pro. A buyer who finishes a design on Friday and discovers the export is locked pays the upgrade under time pressure. Check the downloads page of each plan against the files your printer, intranet or slide deck accepts before building anything you cannot move.
Name the file types your printer and slide deck accept.
Find the cheapest plan that exports all of them.
Save one finished sample from the free plan to test the output.
Credit lines, watermarks and embeds on free accounts
Several tools publish for nothing but mark the result. Vizzlo watermarks every chart on the free account. Datawrapper keeps its credit line on embeds until Pro, and Flourish shows attribution on the free plan and on Presenter, which comes only through a Canva Business or Enterprise subscription.
Infogram and Datawrapper both allow public embeds, so a chart can live on your own page, though a hosted chart disappears if the account lapses. Datawrapper lists self-hosting of published charts only on Enterprise, and Flourish lists HTML export from Publisher. If the graphic must stay online for years, ask about export of the standalone file.
Check whether embeds carry a credit line on your plan.
Ask what happens to published charts after cancellation.
Find the plan that exports a standalone file for self-hosting.
Seats and licences: per person, per team, academic or industry
Billing units differ more than list prices suggest. Piktochart and Venngage charge per member, Visme per person, Infogram has a flat Team plan for three to ten users, Vizzlo starts Teams at five seats, and Snappa's Team plan covers five.
BioRender is the unusual case: it publishes separate academic and industry tables, and the free plan bars commercial use, so the licence type matters as much as the seat count. Venngage Enterprise has a ten-member minimum, and Piktochart Enterprise begins at 101 members. Count the people who will edit, not view, and ask whether reviewers need paid seats too.
Count editors and reviewers separately.
Ask whether a team plan has a seat ceiling.
Confirm the licence covers commercial use if you are a company.
What goes wrong most often when buying infographic makers software
Buying a chart tool for poster work, or a poster tool for a report whose figures change each month.
Judging a free plan by the editor and not by the downloads it allows, which are often capped at a handful.
Publishing a chart with the vendor's credit line or watermark and finding out after the client has seen it.
Using an academic or free licence for company work when the terms reserve commercial use for a higher tier.
