Custom visuals for Power BI

    The most complete visual in every category we ship.

    Gantt, Radar, Cohort Retention, Pareto, News Ticker and the Research suite. Each one covers what every alternative on AppSource does, then the gaps none of them fill. The default render is already the screenshot, and the format pane reads like your data model.

    Pick the category. The choice inside it should be obvious.

    Gantt Chart

    Schedules with a collapsible task hierarchy, dependency arrows, critical path and plan-vs-actual baselines — all computed locally inside Power BI.

    Radar Chart

    Compare teams, products or KPIs on a scale that stays put — normalization for mixed units, targets, zones, four chart modes and small multiples.

    Live on AppSource$1.99 /user/mo
    Cohort Retention

    Retention triangles from raw events — no period table, four denominators, three retention definitions, survival curves and honest handling of unobserved periods.

    News Ticker

    A scrolling strip of headlines, KPIs and alerts fed straight from your data model — badges, up and down deltas, cross-filtering and full keyboard access. Free.

    Pareto Chart

    Bars ranked by contribution, cumulative line, vital-few detection and an insight sentence, all computed in the visual — ABC zones, before/after comparison, a Minitab-style table and small multiples, no cumulative-percentage DAX to maintain.

    Countdown

    A countdown bound to your data that keeps ticking between refreshes — deadline board, milestone track, days since the last event with streak records, working days and time zones handled honestly. Free.

    Leaderboard

    Ranks readable from across the room, with movement against a comparison period that survives slicers, named tie rules, streaks and target pacing — no RANKX to maintain.

    For the report author

    Depth you can actually configure.

    Collapse a phase and the roll-up bar keeps its progress. Zoom to weeks and the dependency arrows follow. Every element you see has a control in the format pane, labelled with your real field names, and cards that do nothing for the fields you mapped stay hidden.

    What every SmartVisual has to clear before it ships.

    Every visual is measured against the best alternative on AppSource before it ships.

    1. 01
      Cover the category, then the gaps.Every feature the incumbents offer, plus the ones people keep re-building in DAX because nobody shipped them.
    2. 02
      Presentable with zero configuration.The default render on sample data has to look like the screenshot. If it needs ten tweaks to be shown, it is not done.
    3. 03
      A format pane that reads like your model.Real series and field names, never "Series 1". Everything drawn on screen is adjustable, and explicit choices survive a theme switch.
    4. 04
      Nothing leaves the report.Every feature runs inside the visual: no external calls, no API keys, no telemetry. Built to Microsoft's certification requirements from the first line.
    5. 05
      Compare us line by line.We would rather lose a sale than a comparison. If something is missing, tell us and it goes on the list.
