I maintain a chart generation service, QuickChart (https://github.com/typpo/quickchart), which renders millions of charts per day. The most consistent pain point for users is that charts require some programming ability, or at least a strict JSON schema.
The idea is to make chart creation more approachable. Instead of messing around with D3 or Chart.js for a one-off, you can just embed https://quickchart.io/natural/red_bar_chart in an image tag or iframe and call it a day. GPT generates a reasonable look & feel.
After you have a template that you're happy with, you can modify the chart with precision, e.g. https://quickchart.io/natural/red_bar_chart?data1=3,5,7. The idea is that you don't have to mess around with chart configs, hosting, etc.
I welcome your thoughts & feedback.
