What is ChartGPT?

What ChartGPT does

ChartGPT is a web tool where you upload a CSV, a spreadsheet or even a photo of a table, then ask questions in plain language and get charts, answers or code back. It also writes Python, R, JavaScript or MATLAB and drafts letters, so it is closer to a data-flavoured chatbot than a chart library. It suits analysts and students who want a quick chart from messy data. Dashboard builders who need live connections should look at BI tools.

How the credit system works

Sign-up is free and the site says no card is needed to start. After the first free questions you spend credits. A question costs 4.1 credits per 1,000 tokens, so a long conversation over a wide table costs more than a short one. Turning a table photo into a spreadsheet costs 95 credits per image, which makes bulk photo conversion expensive on the small plan.

Pricing

Subscriptions are $2.99 a month for 500 credits or $14.99 a month for 5,000 credits, cancel anytime. Pay-as-you-go packs are one-off: 500 credits for $4.99, 1,000 for $9.99 and 1,500 for $14.99. The maths is clear: the 5,000-credit subscription is about three cents per 10 credits, while the pay-as-you-go packs cost about three times as much per credit. Occasional users still prefer packs because nothing renews.

At 95 credits an image, the $2.99 plan covers only five photo conversions a month before any questions.

Who should skip it

Skip it if you handle confidential company data, since the page gives no data-handling detail we could check. Skip it if you need repeatable scheduled reports. Viewing and editing charts and tables you have already created costs nothing, which helps, but each new question draws down credits.

Decision rule

Use the free start on one real dataset. If you ask fewer than 100 questions a month, buy a pay-as-you-go pack. Take the $14.99 plan only if you keep hitting the credit wall.
