Start from a template

How it works
A small team's chart can be ready in one sitting.
Choose an industry template - startup, restaurant, hospital, school and more - or start from a blank chart.
Rename the company, people and job roles right on the chart.
Open any box's menu to add a team or a person beneath it. Delete a box and its branch goes with it.
Export a PNG for slides, or an A4 PDF ready to print, email or pin on the office wall.

An org chart (organizational chart) is a diagram of how a company is structured: who works there, what their role is, and who each person reports to. The top of the chart is usually the founder, owner or CEO; each line down shows a reporting relationship.
A good org chart answers the questions new hires and growing teams ask every day - who approves this, who owns that, and who do I go to when my manager is away. It is also the first step towards defining clear roles and responsibilities for every position.
A practical guide to making an org chart for your company - gather the right information, choose a structure, build it with a free online tool and keep it up to date.

Yes. You can build, edit and download org charts with up to 300 boxes without creating an account or paying anything. Create a free Piplhr account when you want to save your chart, share it with your team or link it to job roles and SOPs.
No. Both the PNG and PDF downloads work without an account. The chart isn't saved, so download it before you refresh or leave the page.
Start with the template closest to your business, rename the company and leader, then work down one team at a time: add each department as a team, add its head, and add the people who report to that head. Finish by checking that every person has exactly one manager, then download it.
A team box groups people into a department or unit, such as Sales or Kitchen, and shows how many people sit under it. A person box is an individual with a name and job role. People can sit under teams, and teams can sit under a person who leads them.
No. The free maker keeps your chart only while this page is open - refreshing or leaving the page starts over, and the page warns you first. Download a PNG or PDF to keep a copy, or create a free Piplhr account to save your org chart and keep editing it any time.
The editor is made for laptops and desktop computers, where there is room to see and edit the whole chart. Open it in Chrome, Edge, Brave or Opera on your computer. On a phone you can still browse every template as a ready-made chart on the templates pages.
At minimum: every person's name, their job title, and a line to the one person they report to. Good org charts also group people into departments and show open positions, so the chart doubles as a hiring plan.
