Just over a year ago, we launched Voronoi, our free new data discovery app.
Believe it or not, there are already more data-driven visuals on Voronoi than on Visual Capitalist (which has been around for 13 years!).
Every day there’s something new on Voronoi to see. And in aggregate, there are roughly 5,000 data stories to explore on the platform from 150+ world-class creators.

MOST DISCUSSED
Charted: International Students at Harvard (2006-2024)
A decision by President Trump to bar Harvard from enrolling international students ignited fierce debate—and this timeline from Visual Capitalist became the month’s most commented-on post this month.
The chart shows foreign enrollment rising from 19.6% in 2006-07 to a record 27.2% (6,793 students) today—growth that hit its biggest single-year jump in 2022-23.
Commenters sparred over academic freedom, visa policy, and whether capping international students at 15% (as proposed) would hurt U.S. competitiveness.
