Hi, we’re Fizz Studio.

Our world now runs on data, and our lives depend more every day on the power to explore and gain insight into that data. Fizz Studio’s mission is to give everyone the power to explore and fully comprehend data, regardless of their environment or their sensory, cognitive, or physical abilities.

ParaCharts

Modern charts and information graphics are among humankind’s greatest inventions for conveying information, but some of their promise remains unrealized. First, they make data accessible by visual means only, failing to meet the needs of those who are blind or possess limited vision. Second, these charts often fail to highlight the dataset’s most important patterns and relationships.

Fizz Studio’s flagship product ParaCharts addresses these two key areas. ParaCharts goes beyond the visual realm and creates charts that are clear, accurate, and beautiful, while letting users also explore the data through synthesized sound and speech. Not only does this make each chart fully accessible to blind and low-vision users, and those with dyslexia, but multiple sensory channels create a deeper and richer data experience for everyone.

ParaCharts also goes beyond traditional charts by surfacing key insights into datasets. Using the power of lean AI, it discovers and highlights the most important features and patterns within a chart’s data, while responsibly keeping all of the data private and secure. These automated insights can also include human annotations, ensuring that everyone – regardless of physical or cognitive ability – can quickly understand the data.

ParaCharts delivers graphics, sound, and interactive content in open, universally consumable web formats and can be seamlessly embedded into any website, social media post, or PDF. ParaCharts is the single product today that brings chart data and comprehension to everyone on the planet.
