Infographic Maker
Stat cards, checklists, timelines, myth-vs-fact graphics. Describe your data and the style you want.
What makes an infographic actually work?
A good infographic answers one question fast. The number, the step, or the claim you want someone to remember. The formats that keep performing are stat cards built around a single number, checklist infographics that walk through a process step by step, myth vs fact graphics that shoot down a common misconception, comparison infographics that put two things side by side, timeline infographics for a brand's history or a launch, and real charts (pie charts, bar charts) done in a style nobody else is using.
Most online infographic makers hand you a fixed template and tell you to fill in the blanks. Glif works differently. It's an AI infographic generator that builds the layout, typography, and illustration from whatever you describe, things like a hand-drawn folk-art border for a food brand, a bold marker checklist infographic for a how-to, an engraved myth vs fact plate for a coffee shop, a retro paper-collage timeline infographic for a bookstore's anniversary post, or a pie chart rendered as puffy 3D inflatable vinyl. It's the same tool that makes your logo or ad creative, so that visual identity carries straight into your infographics too.
Glif also works as infographic animation software. Describe the same stat card, checklist, or comparison infographic as a short clip and you'll get an animated infographic sized for Reels, TikTok, or a slide deck, no editor required.

Common questions
It depends on whether you want a template you fill in or a graphic designed around your exact data and brand. Template tools like Canva are fast for standard layouts. Glif builds the layout, typography, and illustration from a text description, so you're not stuck with whatever a template pack happens to include. That matters most when you want a specific illustration style, an unusual layout, or an animated version of the same graphic.
Designers commonly use Illustrator, Canva, Figma, or dedicated tools like Piktochart and Visme for template-based work. More teams are turning to AI infographic makers like Glif too, going from a rough dataset or claim straight to a finished, on-brand graphic in seconds, then refining it through conversation instead of manual editing.

Lead with the exact number, steps, or claim you want front and center, then describe the visual style or brand feel. Something like 'Stat card infographic: 82% of readers finish our newsletter. Warm folk-art illustration style, orange and cream palette, brand name Ember & Oat.' The more specific the data and style, the closer the first result lands.
