What is Piktochart?
Piktochart is a design tool that turns text prompts, documents, and raw data into finished visual content for teams and individuals. It covers the full range of visual formats, from infographics and presentations to social media graphics, posters, flyers, banners, reports, and video. The platform handles image generation, editing, upscaling, and background removal without switching apps. You can upload a PDF, DOCX, CSV, or Google Sheet and convert it directly into a visual. Templates, brand asset management, and real-time collaboration are all built into the same workspace.

Aspect ratio switching covers YouTube, TikTok, and other platforms without re-exporting. AI image generation handles any custom visual assets the video or graphic content requires.
