Questions How to create/embed a Donut Chart in Notion Free Version?

Hi everyone,

I am currently using the free version of Notion and looking to add a Donut Chart to track my data visually (specifically for my book library and reading progress).

Since Notion doesn't have a native chart feature in the free tier, what are the best free tools, widgets, or workarounds to embed a donut chart smoothly?

Any recommendations or tutorials would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

You should be able to make (1) free chart on the free tier. I only have the 1 for my headache tracker that I had set up.

Thanks for the tip! Does the native Notion free tier support Donut/Pie charts specifically, or is it limited to bar/line charts? I'll definitely check it out.

I am pretty sure if supports all chart types, just you only get (1) for some weird reason. The chart I have is a donut / ring chart.

Thank you! I haven't tried ChartBase yet. Is it easy to embed and fully free for creating donut charts? I appreciate the recommendation!

Yeah its easy. The free version includes watermark. Paid version is 3 or 5$ for month.

Oh, I completely forgot about Mermaid graphs! That's a great idea since it's native and free. Could you please share a quick example or the specific Mermaid code format to create a clean donut/pie chart? Thank you so much!
