Chart Audit Tools
Audit pages are for charts that need to be defensible before publishing. They focus on labels, color, axes, data readiness, misleading patterns, and accessibility.
Workflow
Check the data
Look for empty values, mixed field types, too many categories, and unsupported chart-data combinations.
Check the message
Review title, unit, source note, and whether the recommended chart matches the reader task.
Check accessibility
Use color, label, and alt-text checks before sharing the chart in a report or article.

Questions before you start
Is the score a publishing approval?
No. The score is a structured review prompt. The listed fixes are the part to act on.
Can audit pages read an image-only chart?
This version audits data-backed charts and settings, not screenshots of existing charts.
