The free org chart maker

List your people and who they report to, and the org chart draws itself. No dragging boxes, no signup, no software to install.

OrgTree.app is the free, no-signup org chart maker. Type or paste your people one per row (name, role, who they report to) and the org chart draws and lays itself out automatically, with departments, reporting lines, and open roles. When you need cloud save, sharing, version history, or team collaboration, you upgrade to QueryChart.

How it works

One row per person. Columns set the name, the role, who they report to, and their department. Paste an employee list from Excel, Google Sheets, or a CSV export and the tree assembles itself; edit any cell and the chart re-lays itself out in real time. Mark unfilled positions as open roles; your chart saves in your browser as you go.
