🌳 Org Chart Builder

Turn an Excel list of employees into a shareable org chart. Just five steps — no software to install.

Step 1 — Prepare your Excel file

Your sheet needs four columns, one row per employee. Headers can be in any order and named anything — we’ll let you pick which is which in Step 4.

Employee ID

A unique code for each person (e.g. E001, payroll number, email).

Employee Name

The person’s name as it should appear in the chart.

Job Title

Shown under the name in each chart node.

Manager ID

The Employee ID of this person’s manager — not the manager’s name. Leave blank for the very top of the company.

Why IDs and not names? Two employees can share the same name (“John Smith”), so we link people by their unique ID instead. In the example below, Bob’s Manager ID is E001, which is Alice — so Alice is Bob’s manager.
Example
Employee IDEmployee NameJob TitleManager ID
E001Alice ChenCEO(blank — top of org)
E002Bob MartinezCTOE001
E003Carol SinghCFOE001
E004David KimVP EngineeringE002
E005Erin O’ConnorAccountantE003

Blue shows Alice’s ID (E001) appearing as the Manager ID for Bob and Carol. Green shows Carol’s ID (E003) appearing as the Manager ID for Erin.

Open it, replace the rows with your own people, then save and come back here.

Step 2 — Upload your file

Pick the .xlsx file you prepared. Nothing leaves your browser — the file is processed entirely on this page.
