Quick Start
1
Pick a preset. Eisenhower, impact/effort, BCG, Ansoff, power/interest or a perceptual map fills in the standard axes and quadrant names.
2
Type your items. In Plot mode, one item per line in the Outline ("Dark mode | 2, 3"), or paste name, x and y columns from Excel.
3
Drag the dots. Drag any dot to reposition it; click it without dragging to recolour, or hover and click × to remove it.
4
Make it a list. Switch to List mode for a quadrant name and up to 6 bullets each; in the Outline, type a heading per quadrant with bullets indented under it.
5
Rename anything. Click an axis name, its low or high end, or a quadrant name to type over the preset's wording.
6
Size the bubbles. Add a third number ("Cloud | 8, 8 | 420") to draw bubbles sized by revenue or headcount, the BCG way.

Questions

What is a 2x2 matrix?

A chart that sorts items by two dimensions into four quadrants, such as impact against effort.

Which templates are included?

Eisenhower, impact/effort, BCG, Ansoff, power/interest, perceptual map and risk likelihood/impact.

Can I paste from Excel?

Yes. Paste name, x and y columns (0–10) into the Outline panel; a fourth column sizes bubbles.

Will labels overlap?

No. Labels move beside, above or below each dot, with a leader line only when it's crowded.

How many items can I plot?

Up to 30 dots or bubbles, or up to 6 bullets per quadrant in List mode.
