Napkin.ai: A simple way to create infographic with AI
It’s free and easy
Infographics like diagrams and charts are effective tools for communicating information to your audience. They make presentations more attractive and engaging than just line after line of text.
Microsoft Office software such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint have built-in features and templates for users to easily create a variety of charts and diagrams to represent data or information visually.
However, if you want to create something more unique and distinctive than the standard templates or quickly generate an infographic without having to open Office apps to use in an online note, Medium or Substack article, email, or PowerPoint, there is another option.
Napkin.ai is a new AI tool that is currently in beta and free to use. It allows you to create custom diagrams and infographics that you can add to documents or presentations to make them stand out.
There is no watermark for free users. I hope it stays this way!
