Power BI Custom Visuals

The Briqlab KPI Card is a free Power BI custom visual built for analysts and BI developers who need instant metric clarity on executive dashboards and operational scorecards. Drop it into any Power BI report, connect a single measure, and your stakeholders immediately see the number, its direction, and how far it sits from target — no configuration marathon required. Key Features • Variance display — absolute and percentage vs target, in the same tile • Conditional colour formatting — green/amber/red rules you define, not hardcoded • Directional indicator — configurable so "up" means good for revenue but bad for churn • Optional sparkline overlay for trend context without a separate visual • Supports currency, percentage, and custom number formats with prefix/suffix control • Responsive layout — scales cleanly from a narrow scorecard tile to a full-width hero metric • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Executive scorecards — revenue, EBITDA, headcount, NPS in a single row of tiles • Sales dashboards — quota attainment, pipeline coverage, win rate vs target • Operations dashboards — SLA %, ticket volume, average handle time • Financial reporting — budget vs actual with variance highlighted automatically • HR analytics — headcount, attrition rate, time-to-hire vs benchmark

The Briqlab Drill Bubble is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts who need to compare three variables simultaneously — something a standard scatter chart simply cannot do. X axis, Y axis, and bubble size each carry a separate measure, letting you surface correlations, outliers, and magnitude differences in a single, scannable canvas. Add drill-down and your stakeholders can move from market-level patterns down to individual product or customer-level detail without leaving the visual. Key Features • Three-variable plotting — X axis, Y axis, and bubble size each bound to a separate measure • Drill-down hierarchy — click any bubble to explore the next level of your data model • Colour-coded category grouping with a configurable legend • Interactive tooltips showing all three measure values plus category label on hover • Outlier detection — visually isolate bubbles that sit outside the main cluster • Configurable bubble size range so small differences in magnitude remain visible • Cross-filter and cross-highlight interaction with other report visuals • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Portfolio analysis — plot business units by revenue, margin, and headcount simultaneously • Market comparison — size, growth rate, and profitability across regions in one view • Sales account mapping — deal value, close probability, and engagement score per account • Campaign performance — budget, impressions, and conversion rate across marketing channels • Product benchmarking — price, volume, and customer satisfaction score by SKU

The Briqlab Pie Chart is a free Power BI custom visual built for analysts who need to communicate part-to-whole relationships clearly and immediately. Whether you are showing revenue split by product line, market share by region, or budget allocation by department, the visual turns proportional data into a story a non-technical stakeholder can read in seconds. Every slice is labelled automatically with its percentage, value, or both — no manual annotation required. Key Features • Automatic percentage and value labelling — show one or both in a single label • Donut mode with configurable inner radius for a cleaner, modern layout • Explode-on-click slice emphasis for interactive presentation and storytelling • Conditional colour formatting — rules-based slice colouring beyond fixed palettes • Minimum slice threshold — small categories auto-grouped into an "Other" segment • Interactive legend with click-to-hide individual slices • Cross-filter and cross-highlight interaction with other report visuals • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Revenue breakdown — contribution by product line, region, or customer segment • Market share analysis — brand or competitor share of a defined market • Budget allocation — spend distribution across departments or cost centres • Sales pipeline composition — deal count or value by stage or rep • Survey results — response distribution across answer options

The Briqlab Dot Matrix is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts and report designers who need to communicate proportions in a way that feels immediate and human — not abstract. Instead of slices or bars, each unit of data is represented by a single dot or icon in a structured grid, colour-coded by category. A stakeholder does not need to read an axis or a legend to understand that 30 of 100 dots are orange — they see it. That is the power of unit-based visualisation. Key Features • Unit-based grid display — each dot represents a fixed value you define • Colour-coded categories with a configurable, interactive legend • Configurable grid dimensions — control rows, columns, and dot spacing • Category highlighting — click a legend item to emphasise that group across the grid • Interactive tooltips showing category name, unit count, and percentage on hover • Icon shape options — circles, squares, or custom shapes for branded report designs • Cross-filter interaction with other report visuals on the same page • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Headcount distribution — employees by department, grade, or office location • Survey response breakdown — agreement levels across a fixed respondent pool • Market share storytelling — brand units vs competitor units in a defined market • Progress tracking — completed vs remaining units against a fixed target • Volume comparison — product units sold by category across a reporting period

The Briqlab Calendar Heat is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts who work with daily time-series data and need to surface patterns that standard line charts bury. By mapping every day of the year onto a calendar grid and colour-coding each cell by metric intensity, it gives stakeholders an immediate, full-year view of when activity peaks, when it drops, and whether the same pattern repeats across months or years. Key Features • Full-year calendar grid — every day rendered as a colour-coded cell • Automatic colour scale — gradient adjusts dynamically to your data range • Configurable date range — show a single month, a quarter, or multiple years • Month and year navigation with smooth animated transitions between periods • Interactive tooltips showing exact date, day of week, and metric value on hover • Click-to-filter cross-highlighting with other visuals on the report page • Compact year-overview and expanded month-detail display modes • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Sales performance — daily revenue or order volume across a full year at a glance • Website analytics — daily sessions, conversions, or bounce rate by calendar day • IT operations — support ticket volume by day to identify recurring pressure points • HR and workforce — daily absence rates and seasonal staffing patterns • Retail and e-commerce — footfall or transaction density across peak trading periods

The Briqlab Flow Sankey is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts who need to show not just where a quantity ends up, but how it gets there. Flow width encodes volume — the wider the band, the more value moves through that path — so stakeholders immediately see which routes dominate, where flow splits, and where it converges, without reading a single number. It is the only visual type that answers "where does everything go?" and "how much is lost at each stage?" in the same diagram. Key Features • Dynamic flow width encoding — band thickness scales proportionally to value • Multi-level rendering — supports up to five flow stages in a single canvas • Automated node colour-coding with a configurable category palette • Interactive path highlighting — click any node to isolate its inflows and outflows • Value annotations displayed directly on flow bands for at-a-glance reading • Configurable node width, padding, and link curvature for layout control • Interactive tooltips showing source, destination, and flow value on hover • Cross-filter interaction with other visuals on the report page • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Budget distribution — trace spend from top-line budget through divisions to projects • Customer journey mapping — volume moving through acquisition, activation, and retention stages • Energy and resource flow — input sources through conversion steps to end uses • Sales funnel analysis — leads flowing from source through pipeline stages to closed won • Organisational restructuring — headcount movement between departments or locations

The Briqlab Gauge is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts and dashboard designers who need to communicate how close a metric is to its goal — instantly, without explanation. A needle points to the current value on a colour-coded arc divided into Poor, Satisfactory, and Optimal zones. A stakeholder who has never seen the report before understands the status in under two seconds.. Key Features • Multi-segment colour arc — Poor, Satisfactory, and Optimal zones with configurable boundaries per metric • Precise needle positioning — renders at exact value, not rounded to the nearest zone • Centre-value label — displays formatted value and metric name inside the arc • Configurable min, max, and target — set independently per visual instance • Animated needle transition on data refresh for live dashboard environments • Supports percentage, currency, and custom number formats with prefix/suffix control • Compact footprint — fits in narrow scorecard tiles alongside KPI cards • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • SLA monitoring — compliance percentage against contractual thresholds in real time • Budget consumption — spend as a percentage of allocation with an early-warning red zone • Quota attainment — individual or team sales performance against monthly or quarterly target • System health — server CPU, memory, or uptime percentage on operations dashboards • Customer satisfaction — NPS or CSAT score vs target on executive and client-facing reports

The Briqlab KPI Sparkline is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts who need to show both a current value and its recent trajectory in the same tile — without adding a second visual to the canvas. A compact inline trend line runs alongside the metric value, colour-coded automatically for positive or negative movement, with variance and percentage change displayed beneath. Key Features • Inline sparkline trend line — historical trajectory displayed inside the KPI tile • Automatic positive/negative colour-coding — configurable so up is good or bad per metric • Variance indicator — absolute and percentage change vs prior period in the same tile • Configurable target value — display current performance against a fixed or dynamic goal • First and last value markers with optional min/max point highlighting on the trend line • Area fill option beneath the sparkline for visual weight on dark-themed dashboards • Supports currency, percentage, and custom number formats with prefix/suffix control • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Revenue tracking — current month value with a rolling 12-month trend line in one tile • Sales pipeline — weekly deal volume with variance vs prior week and directional indicator • SLA performance — compliance rate trend over the last 30 days alongside the current score • Cost monitoring — spend trend with automatic red colouring when the direction is upward • Marketing metrics — daily or weekly conversion rate with period-over-period percentage change

The Briqlab Mekko Chart is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts who need to compare two dimensions of proportion at the same time — something no standard bar or pie chart can do alone. Column width encodes the relative size of each category, while segment height within each column encodes the internal composition of that category. The result is a single chart that simultaneously answers "how big is each market?" and "what is each market made of?" Key Features • Dual-axis proportional encoding — column width and segment height each carry independent data dimensions • Automatic colour-coding by segment category with a configurable palette • Segment labels positioned inside each cell showing value, percentage, or both • Interactive segment highlighting — click to isolate a category across all columns • Configurable column sorting — by total size, alphabetically, or custom order • Tooltip on hover showing column name, segment name, value, and percentage • Cross-filter interaction with other visuals on the report page • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Market segmentation — total market size by region with internal product category composition per region • Competitive benchmarking — competitor revenue size alongside product or segment mix in one diagram • Portfolio analysis — business unit revenue with margin or cost structure breakdown per unit • Sales channel mix — channel revenue size with customer segment composition per channel • Budget allocation — department spend size with cost category breakdown per department

The Briqlab Drill Down Pie is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts who need to present hierarchical composition data without switching between multiple charts. Every slice is a door. Click any segment and the chart animates into the next level of your data hierarchy — from region to country, from product category to individual SKU, from division to department — with smooth transitions that keep the audience oriented at every level. Key Features • Multi-level drill-down — click any slice to explore the next hierarchy level in place • Smooth animated transitions between drill levels to maintain audience orientation • Breadcrumb navigation — shows current drill path and allows stepping back up the hierarchy • Outside connector labels — annotations stay readable on narrow slices without overlap • Automated percentage and value labelling — show one or both per slice • Interactive segment highlighting with cross-filter interaction across the report page • Donut mode with configurable inner radius for a modern layout variation • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Revenue breakdown — region to country to product line in a single interactive visual • Market share analysis — total market to segment to sub-segment with drill transitions • Retail category management — department to category to SKU composition exploration • Budget allocation — division to department to cost centre with click-through navigation • Headcount composition — business unit to team to grade level in one self-contained chart

The Briqlab Progress Ring is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts and dashboard designers who need to show goal completion as a felt experience, not just a number. A dynamic arc fills clockwise as the metric approaches its target, colour-coding automatically from underperforming to on-track to complete. Where a gauge visual communicates "where on the scale are we?", the Progress Ring communicates "how much of the job is done?" Key Features • Dynamic arc filling — clockwise fill animation reflects completion percentage in real time • Concentric ring layout — stack multiple KPIs in a single visual to reduce canvas footprint • Automatic colour transitions — red, amber, and green zones driven by configurable percentage thresholds • Centre-value label — displays current value and completion percentage inside the ring • Smooth fill animations on data refresh for live and near-real-time dashboard environments • Configurable target — bind to a fixed value or a dynamic measure for flexible reporting • Supports percentage, currency, and custom number formats with prefix/suffix control • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Sales quota attainment — individual or team completion percentage against monthly or quarterly target • Project milestone tracking — tasks completed as a proportion of total planned across multiple workstreams • Hiring pipeline progress — open roles filled against headcount plan per department • Training completion — employee course completion rates against compliance targets • Budget consumption — spend as a percentage of allocation with threshold-based colour warnings

The Briqlab KPI Pulse is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts building dashboards where metric status needs to be felt immediately — not calculated. While a standard KPI card shows a number and a KPI sparkline shows a trend, the KPI Pulse shows health. A pulse-style animation signals whether the metric is active and on-track, drifting into warning territory, or in a critical state — the way a heartbeat monitor communicates patient status to a nurse from across a room. Key Features • Pulse animation — speed and colour respond dynamically to metric distance from target • Three-state status system — healthy, warning, and critical with configurable thresholds • Directional trend arrow — up, down, or flat indicator with positive/negative colour logic • Integrated sparkline — historical trend line embedded inside the tile without a separate visual • Automated colour-coding — green, amber, and red driven by configurable threshold rules • Target value display — fixed or dynamic measure with variance shown beneath the current value • Supports currency, percentage, and custom number formats with prefix/suffix control • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Operations centre monitoring — system health, uptime, and error rate status on wall displays • Intraday sales tracking — hourly deal velocity vs daily run rate with warning-state pulse • Executive morning briefing — six-tile status dashboard scannable in under ten seconds • Customer success health scoring — account health status across a portfolio with at-a-glance triage • Logistics and supply chain — order fulfilment rate and delivery SLA status in real time

The Briqlab Radar Pro is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts who need to compare entities across multiple criteria simultaneously — and communicate the shape of that comparison, not just the individual scores. Each axis of the radar represents a different metric, and the polygon formed by connecting those scores reveals the overall profile of a subject at a glance. Key Features • Multi-series overlay — compare two or more profiles in the same polygon space with transparent fill areas • Independent axis scaling — each spoke scales to its own data range, preventing metric distortion • Labeled axis endpoints — metric names displayed at each spoke tip without a separate legend • Configurable polygon smoothing — sharp angular or smooth curved profile per design preference • Automated colour-coding per series with configurable fill opacity for overlay clarity • Interactive series toggle — click legend items to show or hide individual profiles • Cross-filter interaction with other visuals on the report page • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Skill gap assessment — employee competency profile overlaid against role benchmark for development planning • Competitive benchmarking — client vs competitor product or service scores across multiple evaluation criteria • Balanced scorecard reporting — financial, customer, process, and learning perspective scores in one visual • Account health scoring — multi-dimensional customer health profile for churn risk identification • Supplier evaluation — vendor performance across quality, delivery, cost, and relationship criteria

The Briqlab Scroller is a free Power BI custom visual for dashboard designers who need to surface dynamic text content — live KPI highlights, status announcements, metric thresholds crossed, or contextual commentary — without consuming canvas space that a chart or table would require. A single narrow tile running along the top or bottom of a dashboard can cycle through dozens of data-driven messages continuously. It is the ticker tape of the Power BI visual library. Key Features • Horizontal and vertical scrolling modes — ticker-style or vertical feed per layout requirement • Data-driven content — messages pulled from your Power BI data model and updated on refresh • Configurable scroll speed — subtle background motion to prominent live-feed pace • Colour-coded message segments — highlight critical updates, warnings, or categories in distinct colours • Custom text size and font weight per message type for visual hierarchy • Pause-on-hover for readers who need to read a full message before it scrolls away • Separator configuration — custom delimiters between messages for clean readability • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Operations centre wall displays — live system status, threshold alerts, and shift announcements in a continuous ticker • Retail trading dashboards — real-time sales milestones and regional performance highlights to motivate teams • Executive dashboards — narrative commentary and metric context delivered without consuming chart space • Event leaderboards — live ranking updates and score announcements in a broadcast-style scrolling format • HR and internal comms — company announcements, recognition messages, and policy updates embedded in existing dashboards

The Briqlab Slope Chart is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts who need to communicate change between exactly two points in time — and make every entity's movement legible simultaneously. A slope line connects each category's value at period one to its value at period two. Steep upward slopes are winners. Steep downward slopes are losers. Lines that cross reveal rank reversals. Where a line chart is built for trend over many periods, the slope chart is built for the story of change between two. Key Features • Two-period slope lines — each category connected between period one and period two with a single readable line • Automatic colour-coding — rising slopes in one colour, falling slopes in another, configurable per report theme • Labeled endpoints — category name, value, and rank position displayed at both ends of each slope line • Positive and negative indicators — directional markers on each slope for rapid scanning without label reading • Crossing line detection — rank reversal stories are structurally visible without annotation • Configurable line thickness scaled to magnitude — steeper slopes carry more visual weight • Cross-filter interaction with other visuals on the report page • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Regional sales ranking — which regions rose, fell, or swapped positions between two quarters • Competitive market share shifts — brand position changes between two measurement periods • Engagement survey analysis — department score ranking changes between two survey waves • Product line revenue ranking — portfolio rebalancing story between two fiscal years • Campaign performance comparison — channel ranking shifts between two campaign periods

The Briqlab Violin Plot is a free Power BI custom visual for data analysts and advanced BI developers who need to go beyond summary statistics and communicate the full shape of a distribution. Where a box plot shows median, quartiles, and outliers, and a histogram shows frequency counts in fixed bins, the violin plot combines both — the interquartile range sits inside the violin body while the symmetric width at every point encodes probability density. Key Features • Combined violin and box plot — probability density shape and interquartile range markers rendered in a single visual • Symmetric KDE encoding — kernel density estimation calculated automatically from your raw data without scripting • Median and quartile markers — overlaid inside the violin body for dual-audience readability • Skewness detection annotations — directional indicators flag significantly skewed distributions automatically • Multi-category comparison — stack multiple violins side by side to compare distributional shape across groups • Automated colour-coding by category with a configurable palette • Cross-filter and cross-highlight interaction with other report visuals • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Salary and compensation analysis — distributional shape across departments revealing outliers that means conceal • Manufacturing quality control — measurement distribution per shift or machine for calibration and process monitoring • Model validation — predicted vs actual value distribution comparison for bias and error pattern detection • Customer behaviour analysis — purchase value or session duration distribution across customer segments • Clinical and research reporting — outcome measure distributions across treatment or study groups

The Briqlab Word Cloud is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts working with text data who need to communicate what a large volume of words is actually saying — at a glance, to an audience that will not read a table of term frequencies. Word size encodes frequency or measure value: the larger the word, the more prominent the term in your dataset. It is the fastest path from a text column in your data model to an insight your audience can act on. Key Features • Frequency-driven sizing — word scale encodes term frequency or a custom weight measure from your data model • Live data model connection — updates automatically on refresh, responds to all report filters and slicers • Click-to-filter interaction — select any word to cross-filter all other visuals on the report page • Built-in stop-word filtering — common words excluded automatically with a configurable stop-word list • Automated colour-coding — frequency gradient or category-mapped colour per term • Rotation angle control — horizontal only, mixed, or fully rotated layout per design preference • Configurable layout density — control word spacing and canvas fill to fit any tile size • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Employee engagement — survey verbatim themes sized by response frequency across a full feedback dataset • Customer feedback analysis — support ticket subjects and review keywords sized by volume or sentiment score • Campaign keyword performance — search terms or ad keywords sized by click volume or conversion count • Product feedback — feature request terms from user submissions sized by mention frequency for roadmap prioritisation • Social media monitoring — hashtags or mention terms sized by engagement volume for brand tracking

The Briqlab Bullet Pro is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts who need to compare actual performance against a target — across multiple metrics simultaneously — without the canvas overhead a gauge visual demands. A single bar encodes the actual value. A vertical line marks the target. Background bands divide the scale into Poor, Satisfactory, and Good zones. Every piece of information a gauge communicates is present, but the linear format means six bullet charts fit in the space one gauge occupies.. Key Features • Actual vs target comparison — primary bar and vertical target marker in a single compact linear visual • Three-zone background bands — Poor, Satisfactory, and Good with independently configurable thresholds per metric • KPI summary indicators — variance from target shown as absolute and percentage above each bar • Outside value labeling — actual value displayed at bar endpoint for readability in static exports • Horizontal and vertical orientation — adapts to wide scorecard rows and narrow column layouts • Automated zone colour-coding — threshold-driven, not hardcoded, so one template works across metrics with different scales • Cross-filter interaction with other visuals on the report page • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Management reporting — revenue, margin, cost, and headcount vs budget in a single compact scorecard column • Sales rep scorecards — quota attainment, activity volume, pipeline coverage, and win rate in one tight layout • SLA tracking — ten or more service metrics each with target marker and zone assessment on a single screen • Project health dashboards — schedule, budget, scope, and quality metrics all assessed against baseline in one visual block • Retail performance — store-level metrics compared against regional benchmarks across multiple KPI dimensions

The Briqlab Bar Chart is a free Power BI custom visual for analysts and report designers who have hit the formatting ceiling of Power BI's native bar chart and need more — more visual polish, more label intelligence, more hierarchy depth — without rebuilding their report from scratch. It supports both vertical column and horizontal bar orientations, renders grow animations on load that make dashboards feel alive rather than static, and formats data labels automatically in K and M notation. Key Features • Vertical and horizontal orientation — column and bar modes in a single visual with one toggle • Rounded corner aesthetics — configurable corner radius from sharp to fully pill-shaped per design preference • Smooth grow animations — bars animate in on load and on filter change for a polished dashboard feel • Automatic K/M label formatting — magnitude-aware abbreviation without manual DAX formatting measures • Interactive drill-down — direct bar click navigates hierarchy levels with breadcrumb trail navigation • Reference lines — target and average overlays configurable per visual instance • Cross-filter interaction with other visuals on the report page • Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup Use Cases • Regional sales comparison — territory performance ranked horizontally with drill-down from region to country to city on bar click • Budget vs actual reporting — department spend compared against plan with K/M labels that stay readable at any data magnitude • Product category performance — vertical column chart with grow animation for live presentation and client-facing dashboards • Campaign channel comparison — marketing spend and return by channel with reference line marking the portfolio average • Headcount by department — horizontal bar layout with long department name labels that fit cleanly in a wide left axis
