What our research says

Infogram

Infogram's edge is that the output stays interactive and embeddable instead of exporting as a PNG, and the AI step mainly saves you the layout decision rather than doing the thinking. The tier structure is the weak spot: the jump from $19 Pro to $67 Business is where branding and analytics live, which is exactly what a company needs.

Pros

Interactive, embeddable output rather than flat exported images
35+ chart types plus maps, tables, dashboards, slides and posters in one editor
AI suggests layout and chart type and condenses long text into bullets as a starting draft
Free tier covers one user and ten projects with the full chart library

Cons

Brand customisation and analytics only appear at $67/month Business
Advertised prices are annual rates; monthly billing is about 24% higher
No public API documented on the pages we read

Piktochart

A veteran template tool that got AI generation bolted on rather than rebuilt around it, which is mostly a good thing: the templates are the product and the prompt just gives you a starting draft. Cheaper than Canva at the entry tier, but the free plan is tight enough that two downloads a month makes it a trial, not a plan.

Pros

Template library built specifically for infographics and data-heavy reports
AI drafts infographics, decks, flyers and banners from a text prompt
Brand assets and shared team workspaces on paid tiers
Entry paid tier at $10 per member/month annually undercuts most rivals
Bootstrapped and running since 2011, with no outside funding to run out

Cons

Free tier is limited to 1 GB storage, 60 AI credits and two PNG downloads
No public API or programmatic generation found
Priced per member, so team cost scales linearly
