Weekly
Three figures and one delta. Weekly reports are read in a chat window, so nothing on them should need scrolling or zooming.

The report gets read when it fits on one page.
Bring the document or the month’s figures — a PDF, a spreadsheet, or the summary you already wrote in an email. Get back a one-pager with the finding at the top, the evidence under it, and what happens next at the bottom, in your colours and ready to send before the meeting.

Anatomy of a one-pager
Seven parts, in this order
The order is the argument. A reader who stops after part two should still leave with the right impression, and a reader who reaches part six should know what is being asked of them.
- 1
The finding, as a sentence
Not “Q3 Performance”. “Revenue grew 24%, driven almost entirely by two regions.” If the reader stops here they should still know what happened.
- 2
One headline figure
The number the finding rests on, set larger than anything else on the sheet, with its period and unit attached.
- 3
Three to five supporting figures
The evidence. Ranked, not listed alphabetically or in the order your dashboard happened to output them.
- 4
One chart, doing one job
A trend, a split or a comparison — whichever the finding claims. A second chart on a one-pager usually means it should have been two sheets.
- 5
What changed since last time
The most-read line in any recurring report, and the one most often missing. Deltas beat absolutes for anybody who saw the previous edition.
- 6
What happens next, and who owns it
A report with no next step is a newsletter. One line, one name, one date.
- 7
Source and date
Where the numbers came from and when they were pulled — so the sheet stays quotable a month later.
Start to finish
How to turn a report into an infographic one-pager
- 1
Bring the report you already have
Upload the PDF or Word file, the spreadsheet of this period’s figures, or paste the summary you wrote in an email. Nothing needs rewriting first.
- 2
State the finding in a sentence
Not the topic. “Revenue grew 24%, almost all of it in two regions” gives you a sheet built around an argument; “Q3 results” gives you a sheet built around a filing cabinet.
- 3
Pick the shape for the cadence
Square or wide for something read in a chat window, portrait for a monthly, long page for a quarterly or a board pack. The shapes are matched to cadences further down this page.
- 4
Check the figures and the delta
Confirm every number against the source, and make sure the change since last time is on the sheet. That line is the most-read part of any recurring report and the one most often missing.
- 5
Send it, and keep the shape
Export a PNG or the sheet as a web page, or share a link. Next period, generate from the new figures with the same brand kit so the set reads as a series rather than five unrelated documents.
Different cadences want different sheets
The mistake is using the quarterly format weekly. Nobody reads a full anatomy every Monday.
Monthly
The full anatomy above. This is the cadence that best fits a one-pager: enough has changed to be worth a sheet, not so much that it needs a deck.
Quarterly
A one-pager per theme, plus a summary sheet on top. Send the summary, attach the rest.
Board and annual
The sheet goes in front of the pack, and the pack answers the questions the sheet provokes. Print it from the triple-resolution PNG so it survives the photocopier.
Five habits that make a recurring report worth sending
- Write the headline before you open the data
- If you cannot state the finding in a sentence, another chart will not help you find it.
- Keep the same shape every month
- A recurring report is read by comparison. Moving the figures around costs your reader the fluency they built up last month.
- Show the delta, not just the value
- “£18.4m” is a fact. “£18.4m, up 22%” is a report.
- Keep the bad number on the sheet
- A one-pager that only shows what went well trains people to distrust the format, and then they read nothing.
- Link, do not append
- The sheet is the summary. Everything it summarises should be one click away, not stapled underneath.
Practical questions
What do I give it to start?
Whatever the report already exists as: a PDF, a Word document, a spreadsheet of the month’s figures, or a paste of the summary you wrote in an email. It reads all of those.
Can I turn a PDF report into an infographic?
Yes, and it is the most common way in — most reports already exist as a PDF. Upload it and the document is read end to end: headings set the priorities, tables come through as data rather than pictures, and figures are pulled out of the prose with their units. The one PDF that will not work is a scan with no text layer, because there is nothing in it to read.
Which kinds of report does this suit?
Any recurring or summarising document: weekly team updates, monthly performance reports, quarterly business reviews, annual reports, board packs, sales and pipeline reports, marketing campaign reports, survey results and research summaries. The anatomy above is the same for all of them — what changes is the shape and how much of it fits.
How long should a report one-pager be?
One page, which is the whole discipline of it. If the content genuinely will not fit, that is a signal to split it: one sheet per theme with a summary sheet on top, rather than one crowded sheet nobody finishes. A one-pager carrying twelve figures has stopped being a one-pager and become a poster.
Can I make the same report every month without redoing the design?
Yes. Make one you like, then generate the next month from the new figures — with a brand kit saved, the palette, typeface and logo stay identical, so the set reads as a series.
Is it free to make a report infographic?
The free plan needs no card and is exactly one one-pager to try — enough to run last quarter’s report through it and decide. The download is standard quality and a small badge sits in the footer. Paid plans go from about 80 pieces a month upward and add brand kits, shared seats, editing by asking, best-quality downloads and removal of the badge — the things that matter once a report becomes a recurring habit rather than a one-off.
Can it produce a slide instead of a sheet?
Choose the wide shape and you get something composed for a 16:9 slide, exported as a PNG to drop into your deck. There is no .pptx export — the sheet lands on the slide as one image, which is usually what you wanted: it stays exactly as designed instead of being reflowed.
Can my team work from the same brand?
Yes. Paid plans include shared seats and multiple brand kits, so a finance one-pager and a marketing one-pager still look like the same company.
Can I share it without sending a file?
Yes — every piece has a share link that opens on any screen with no account and no app. Useful when the report goes to people outside your organisation.
Is my data used to train anything?
Your documents are used to build your pieces and stay in your account. They are not published, not shown to other users and not sold on — see the privacy policy for the full statement.
