Dashboards that run on JSON.
Paste a document or push one from your code. Each visual draws exactly what you send. No database to connect, no queries to write, nothing to keep in sync.
The visual
Change any number or label. The chart follows.
Nobody should need a BI tool to show five numbers.
Your code already has the numbers. The cron job knows last night's signups. The deploy script knows how long the build took. Usually that output scrolls past in a terminal or sinks in a chat thread.
Output Charts gives it a page that stays put, looks finished, and updates when you send new JSON.
| Where it comes from | What it becomes | Visual |
|---|---|---|
| A nightly cron job | Yesterday's signups | KPI |
| A Stripe webhook | MRR, day by day | Line |
| Your CI pipeline | Build time by branch | Horizontal bar |
| A spreadsheet script | Stock by location | Table |
| An AI agent | What it finished today | Markdown |
| A survey export, pasted | Answers by option | Pie |
Three ways to fill a visual.
Every visual holds one JSON document. Use whichever way suits the moment, and switch whenever you like.
Paste it
Drop JSON into the editor and the visual redraws as you type. If something is off, the editor names the exact field instead of drawing a broken chart.
"data": [
{ "month": "Sep", "pro": 6020 },
{ "month": "Oct", "pro": "6,710" }
]data[1].pro Expected number
Push it
Create an API key and send a PUT to the visual from anything that can make an HTTP request: a cron job, a GitHub Action, a Lambda, a spreadsheet script. Each push replaces the document, and the last one wins.
Up to 60 pushes a minute per key. Every visual shows its own URL in the editor.
curl -X PUT "$VISUAL_URL" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $OC_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"label": "Orders today",
"value": 139,
"format": "number"
}'Nothing sent yet.

Let AI format it
Paste a messy table, a CSV, or a few lines from an email. AI reshapes it to fit the visual and shows you a preview. Nothing saves until you confirm.

Eleven visuals. Each takes a documented shape.
The library is deliberately small. Every type has a short schema, so you always know what to send.
- Bar
Vertical bars, grouped or stacked.
- Horizontal bar
The same bars, drawn sideways.
- Line
A line across categories: linear, smooth, or stepped.
- Area
A filled line, separate or stacked.
- Pie
Slices of a whole, or a donut.

- Publish
