The Data Story Tool
Turn Basic Data Indicators Into Clear, Actionable Stories
Benefits
Planning discussions often stall when partners interpret data differently. This tool gives your team a shared understanding of what indicators mean, how they are changing, and why the trends matter. It creates clarity so plans can move forward with confidence.
Community meetings and presentations are easier when you can explain your data in a clear and accessible way. This tool helps you turn complex information into straightforward talking points that keep audiences engaged and focused.
Strong proposals rely on strong narratives. This tool helps you create clear descriptions of local need, trends, and improvements so funders can understand the story behind your indicators and why your work matters.
Communities often see small shifts in indicators without knowing how to interpret them. This tool explains changes in practical terms so teams can understand momentum, progress, or emerging concerns.
The Data Story Tool
How to Use It
Your generated data story can be used once you finish running the tool. The data you upload is retained by you. The narrative transforms your selected indicator into clear language that explains what changed, when it changed, and why it may matter for your community. You can copy this text directly into slides, reports, grant proposals, or coalition meeting materials.
