Gantt Maker
Paste or upload a task list and get a clean, shareable Gantt chart.
Tasks
| Task | Start | Finish | % | Milestone | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
How it works
- 1Start from the sample rows, paste a list out of a spreadsheet, or pull the tasks straight from a schedule file.
- 2Each row needs a name, a start and a finish. Tick the milestone box for a zero-length event and it draws as a diamond.
- 3Percent complete fills the darker part of each bar, so the chart shows progress as well as dates.
- 4Download as PNG for a slide or as SVG if you want to edit it in a design tool afterwards.
Common questions
- Do I need an account?
- No, and there is no watermark on the download. The chart is drawn in your browser and the image is generated there too.
- What date formats can I paste?
- Both day-first and month-first. The whole column is examined together and the order that works for every value wins, so 05/10/2026 is not guessed in isolation. ISO dates like 2026-10-05 are always unambiguous.
- Can I build the chart from a project file?
- Yes — use "From a file" and drop in a CSV, Excel, MS Project XML or Primavera XER. The first sixty dated tasks become rows, and you can then delete the ones you do not want on the slide.
- PNG or SVG?
- PNG for pasting into PowerPoint or a document. SVG if you want to change fonts, colours or labels afterwards in a design tool — it stays sharp at any size.
- Why are the bars not showing dependencies?
- This tool is deliberately a picture, not a scheduling engine. If you want the logic worked out, use the Critical Path Calculator, which computes float and the driving path from predecessors.
A chart is a snapshot. A plan is a sequence of them.
PlanView keeps every version of a schedule and generates the timeline for you each time, with late work coloured by the analytics rather than by hand.
