Org Chart Maker — Free Organisational Charts from Text

In short: the Org Chart Maker turns a simple indented list — one role per line, children indented under their manager — into a tidy organisational chart with boxes centred over their teams, and exports it at full resolution.

Drawing org charts box by box is slow and they break with every restructure. Typing the hierarchy as text is fast, and the layout — who sits over whom — is computed for you, however wide the tree grows.

Private by design: everything in this tool happens 100% in your browser with JavaScript. Your data, photos and designs are never uploaded to a server, never stored and never seen by us - close the tab and everything is gone.

How to use the Org Chart Maker

  1. Edit the text: the first line is the top role. Indent each line by two spaces (or a tab) for every level below its manager.
  2. Watch the chart rebuild instantly — managers are centred over their whole team automatically.
  3. Fix names and structure in the text until the chart reads exactly right.
  4. Download the PNG — it exports at the chart’s full natural size, never squashed.

How it works

The layout is a tidy-tree algorithm: every subtree is as wide as its children side by side, and each parent is centred above its subtree. Connector elbows drop from a parent to a shared rail above its children. Because width is computed from the tree itself, exports are sized to the real chart — large organisations simply get a wider, still-sharp PNG.

Worked example

A school principal types the staff structure in five minutes — Principal, Vice Principal, two heads of department, teachers and support staff — and the chart goes straight into the school prospectus.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I show two people at the same level?

Give them the same indentation under the same manager line.

What if my text indent is wrong?

The rule is simple: a line belongs to the nearest line above it with less indentation. Keep indents consistent (two spaces per level) and the tree builds itself.

Can the chart be very wide?

Yes — wide trees export as wide PNGs at full resolution. The on-screen preview scales down to fit, the download never does.

Is my staff data private?

Completely — the text is parsed only in your browser.
