Data Visualization Narrative Designer
Transform data into compelling visual stories with intelligent chart selection and narrative design
What You Can Do
This skill analyzes your raw data and automatically recommends the best chart types, generates design specifications, and creates data-driven narratives that tell the story behind your numbers. You'll get publication-ready visualization briefs with interactive code, accessibility-optimized design specs, and key insights extracted from your dataset—no design experience required.

WCAG-compliant specs with alt text, color-blind safe palettes, and semantic structure
Headlines, captions, and commentary that guide viewers through your data story
Example Output
Input: CSV with monthly sales by region and product
Claude Output:
Chart 1: Sales Trend (Line Chart)
- X-axis: Month (Jan–Dec)
- Y-axis: Total Revenue (USD)
- Color: Brand gradient #06B6FF → #7C3AED
- Insight: "Revenue grew 34% YoY, with a dip in August due to seasonal factors."
- Code: Vega-Lite JSON specification
Chart 2: Regional Breakdown (Stacked Bar)
- Categories: East, West, Central regions
- Insight: "East region is our growth leader (42% of total), while Central underperforms (18%)."
- Interactive hover: Show dollar amounts and % of total
- Accessibility: High-contrast colors for colorblind viewers
Narrative Brief: "Your Q4 surge was driven by product launches in the West region. The Central market presents untapped opportunity—consider targeted campaigns."
