Template library

A full library of pre-built, ready-to-edit charts for common decks — ARR bridge, market share, portfolio review — plus save your own. Start from structure, not a blank canvas.

Keyboard shortcuts

UX

Insert a chart, open the data, add an annotation — hands never leave the keyboard. Brings proper shortcuts to Google Slides itself too: align, distribute, and more.

Released Jul 16, 2026

Dual-axis graphs

Charts

Combine a bar series and a line series on two independent scales in one frame — so revenue and margin both read clearly in one chart.

Released Jul 16, 2026

One-click rotate

UX

Flip any chart to horizontal orientation in one click — useful for long category labels and ranked bar charts.

Released Jul 16, 2026

Smart labels & renewed data editor

Labels auto-move to a readable spot, plus a renewed data editor that now supports formulas — and drag-to-select in a cleaner editor.

Pie charts

Charts

Circular composition charts with segment labels and percentage annotations — for high-level mix views.

Released Jul 9, 2026

Settings on individual data points
