Animated Pie Chart Maker Features
EchoWave's chart video tools are used by marketers, educators, and founders worldwide.
Animated proportions
Reveal a pie or donut chart in motion
An animated pie chart maker turns a set of parts into slices that sweep into view, so a breakdown reads as motion instead of a flat wheel. EchoWave draws both pie charts and donut charts, and a donut can show a running total in the center as the slices appear. Choose a reveal animation, stagger the slices so they arrive one after another, and let the percentage labels count up from zero. Type or paste your categories and values, then set custom per-slice colors or a colorblind-friendly palette. This is the pie and donut format from the chart video maker; for a single headline figure, the number counter animation page focuses on count-up stats and radial rings.

What you get
Everything a pie or donut chart needs
Draw the slices, reveal them in motion, and color them to match your brand.
-
Pie and donut charts
Draw a solid pie or open the middle for a donut chart. The donut gives you room for a label or a running total in the center, which suits a single clean breakdown.
-
Center total in the donut
Show a total or a headline figure in the middle of a donut that counts up as the slices appear, so the parts and the whole land at the same time.
-
Slice reveal animations
Sweep, wipe, or pop the slices into view, and stagger them so they arrive one after another. Five easing curves shape the motion, and an optional exit plays the chart back out.
-
Count-up percentage labels
Each slice's percentage or value counts up from zero as it is drawn, so viewers read the share of every category rather than eyeballing the size of the wedge.
-
Type or paste your data
Enter categories and values in the spreadsheet-style grid, paste a table from Excel or Google Sheets as TSV or CSV, or upload a CSV file. Start from a sample dataset if you prefer.
-
Per-slice colors and themes
Set a custom color for each slice, or apply one of 12 themes and 8 curated palettes checked with a color-vision-deficiency validator so neighboring slices stay easy to tell apart.
-
Transparent or card background
Place the chart on a transparent background so it overlays your footage, or on a solid, gradient, or card background to frame it as a standalone graphic.
-
A real timeline segment
The chart is a layer in the editor, so you can drop it over video, resize and position it, trim its duration, and combine it with text, music, and subtitles.

Animated Pie Chart Maker FAQ
How do I make an animated pie chart?
Open EchoWave's chart tool and enter each category and its value in the grid, paste a table from Excel or Google Sheets, or upload a CSV file, and EchoWave works out the percentages. Choose a solid pie or a donut, pick a slice reveal animation with its stagger and easing, then apply a theme or set per-slice colors. Drop the chart onto the timeline, layer it over any background, and export HD video in your browser. What you see in the preview is exactly what renders.
What is the difference between a pie chart and a donut chart?
A pie chart is a solid circle divided into slices, while a donut chart has an open center, which frees up space in the middle for a label or a running total. They show the same proportions, so the choice is mostly about style and whether you want a headline figure in the middle. EchoWave draws both from the same data with one switch.
Can I show a total in the middle of a donut?
Yes. A donut chart can display a total or a headline figure in its center, and that number can count up from zero as the slices are revealed. It is a clean way to present a breakdown and its overall size together, for example total revenue in the middle with each product's share around the ring.
How do the slices animate?
Slices reveal with your chosen animation, such as a sweep around the circle, a wipe, or a pop, and you can stagger them so they arrive one after another rather than all at once. Five easing curves control the feel of the motion, the percentage labels count up as each slice draws, and an optional exit animation plays the chart back out.
Can I import my data?
Yes. Type your categories and values into the spreadsheet-style grid, paste a table from Excel or Google Sheets as TSV or CSV, or upload a CSV file. You can transpose the table if your layout is flipped, or start from a built-in sample dataset to see how a pie or donut chart is structured before you add your own numbers.
Can I set custom slice colors?
Yes. Give every slice its own color, or apply one of 12 themes and 8 curated palettes that were checked with a color-vision-deficiency validator so neighboring slices stay distinguishable for colorblind viewers. You can also set a title, a subtitle, and your own fonts so the chart matches the rest of your video.
Can I overlay it on video and trust the export?
Yes. The chart is a real timeline segment, so you can layer it over footage, resize and position it, and trim its duration, and a transparent background lets the pie or donut sit directly on your video. EchoWave renders with the same engine in the browser and on the servers, so the export matches the preview exactly.
Is the animated pie chart maker free?
Yes, you can build and preview an animated pie or donut chart for free with EchoWave's standard plans, right in your browser with no software to install. Free exports include a small EchoWave watermark, which upgrading to a paid plan removes. There is no credit card needed to start, so you can try it first.
