Dataviz turns data into decisions and products

Visible Data helps teams communicate data clearly, accessibly and on-brand. We run dataviz workshops and accessibility reviews today.

We're building Pier, an accessible data communication coach.

UK public sector

Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations (2018)

Websites, apps and documents published by public bodies must meet WCAG 2.2 AA, and that includes the charts inside them.

EU private sector

European Accessibility Act (2025)

Applies to new digital products and services sold in the EU, including e-commerce, banking and the data experiences inside them.

    A visualisation-first engine that will recommend charts and coach you in data storytelling.

  • Compass

    Accessibility governance built into every step of the data communication process.

  • Foundry

    Brand safety built in, through a dataviz design system studio.
