Donut Chart Maker
Paste labels and values to build a donut chart — a pie chart with the centre removed, which many find cleaner and leaves room for a total in the middle.
How it works
A donut chart is a pie chart with a hole in the centre. It shows the same part-to-whole proportions — each arc's length is proportional to its value — but the ring form is often considered cleaner and the empty centre can hold a title or total. Paste one row per segment with a label and a numeric value, and the calculator sizes each arc and computes its percentage.
Segments are drawn from a distinct colour palette and the chart re-colours for light and dark themes. As with pie charts, a small number of segments reads best; group tiny values together if needed. Take a screenshot when you are done.
Examples
- Chrome,63 / Safari,20 / Edge,5 draws a browser-share donut.
- The hollow centre distinguishes it from a pie chart.
- Percentages are calculated automatically.
Frequently asked questions
- How is a donut chart different from a pie chart?
- It is the same proportional chart with the centre cut out, forming a ring. The information is identical; many people find the ring form cleaner and it leaves space in the middle.
- What data does it need?
- One row per segment: a label in the first column and a numeric value in the second, comma-, tab- or space-separated.
- Are percentages shown?
- Yes. Each segment's share of the total is calculated automatically and appears in the tooltip.
- Does my data stay private?
- Yes. The chart is generated locally in your browser and your data never leaves your device.
