May was all about balancing deep focus in the studio with some much-needed time together. While our Slack channels were considerably quieter this month with 5,829 messages (a 64% drop from April’s record-setting chatter!), the numbers show we were just as productive as ever.

Recently, we partnered with the Consortium for Agroecological Transformations to explore what their key mission — agroecological transformation — really looks like on the ground.

This week's Insight Out is about one of our more recent projects—a scrollytelling segment made for 'Bridging the gap: Building systems to withstand tomorrow’s shocks' with GIZ.

Last week, RVL's Slack was silent... because all our conversations were happening in-person!

This January, we teamed up with GIZ to communicate the importance of adaptive social protection (ASP)—and why it matters for climate resilience and social protection programmes.

Our team has filled the prize pot with dream projects that inspire us! From wearable dataviz pieces to food-based storytelling, we have a wide range of ideas waiting for the claw to drop. 🕹️

April saw us juggle 10 projects at the studio, kicking off 2 and wrapping up another 2 while steadily working on 6 others. It has been a talkative month, setting a record of 16,155 Slack messages—a whopping 71% increase from March! 💬

Our recent project, ‘The Digital Lives of Young Indians,’ is full of intentional design choices that spark joy every time you spot them. Swipe to spot them all!

For this week’s Insight Out, we go back two years to a diagram made for our Conscious Trends Report 2024 for Godrej Design Lab and CEEW India.

After working with us over the last seven months—first as an intern and later as a contractor—we're very excited to welcome Ipshita as the latest addition to our design team!

March was a big one for us at RVL! 📊 The numbers speak for themselves– we chatted almost twice as much as we did last month and saw a 75% surge in code commits compared to February. We also welcomed our very first dev intern, Brenda!

Choosing a colour palette for our latest project ‘The Digital Lives of Young India’ involved finding the right solution to a series of complex considerations.

What do young Indians use and understand the internet? How do they experience the digital world? These were the questions that Quest Alliance sought to find answers to through a survey involving 220 students and their relationship with the internet and social media.

While numbers are often at the heart of what we do at Revisual Labs, sometimes the stories we tell don't have numbers in them.

In many ways, the internet resembles a 'maidan' in India; a vast public space where young people come to reinvent themselves or replicate their lives online.

Last December, we collaborated with Quest Alliance and Oink Oink to create our most detailed, illustrated qualitative research project yet! Stay tuned to learn more.

Recently, @chartwaali.bsky.social published a course on 'The Craft of Building Stories with Data' as part of the Open Visualization Academy by @albertocairo.com after many months of planning, testing, writing and recording. The course is free and open to all to learn from.

It feels like we only just shared our Year in Numbers for 2025 and yet, January has already gone by! It has been quite a month for us at RVL. We've been busy with seven projects, three of which kicked off in January.

📊 Insight Out: Week 51- Visualising a tiered system of values through an interactive infographic. For our first Insight Out of this year, we’re diving into a simple interactive infographic that was designed for PhonePe’s Investor Relations website.

How do you visualise the market impact of a fintech giant? 📈 That was the question we tackled in September 2025 when we partnered with PhonePe to design their Investor Relations website.

Big things are brewing at RVL! 🚀 We've been busy behind the scenes working on our debut project in the finance sector, and can’t wait to share the results. Stay tuned for the big reveal!

We’re hiring a Developer Intern to kick off 2026 with us! ✨ At Revisual Labs, interns help us with internal tools, contribute to client projects, participate in talks and workshops, and more!

Once is a test, twice is a habit. To mark the end of 2025, we’re making a habit out of reflecting on our growth as a team through this second edition of Our Year In Numbers.

2025 has brought with it many memorable moments–we won our first award, celebrated our second year as an agency, welcomed new team members and took on a range of interesting projects. But we're excited to see what 2026 brings. Until then, team RVL wishes you a happy new year. ✨🎇

Revisual’s annual Secret Santa ritual is back 🎁 We’re a remote team—spread across different cities—so we don’t get to meet in person very often. But every holiday season, we take a moment to send our colleagues (and friends) a little something to brighten their week.

📊 Insight Out: Week 50!- Showing the relationship between size of a city’s population and its revenue growth with a slope chart.

Welcome back to 'Journeys of Discovery,' where we continue to chart the unique career paths of our studio's team!

As we head into the last few (and busiest) days of 2025, here’s a quick look back at some important numbers from our studio in November.

Welcome back to 'Journeys of Discovery,' the series where we explore the fascinating and varied careers of the RVL team!

📊 Insight Out: Week 49 - Showing disparity between city revenues through a bubble chart This week, we're sharing a bubble chart we made for City Finance's primer on Indian city revenues.

Our experiences–past and present–inform how each of us approach data viz. Some of us carry forward skills we learned in school into our day-to-day work, while others from college and professional experiences.

Last week, we explored how they stumbled into this field. This week, we're diving deeper to answer the question: What were they doing before getting into data visualisation?

📊 Insight Out: Week 48 - Election graphics, Bihar 2025 Our team created 4 automated graphics for the elections, in collaboration with CVoter who provided the data behind the charts. These graphics were shown live on Mojo Story's YouTube channel.

We’re kicking off a new series called ‘Journeys of Discovery,’ the idea for which came from Ipshita Raj, our youngest team member.

And that's a wrap on October! ✨ With 13 members on board, we had a highly productive month at the studio. We launched 1 new project while keeping 6 others steadily humming along. All that work resulted in 321 code commits and required 6,858 Slack message exchanges.

📊 Insight Out: Week 47 - Redesigning a waterfall chart Today we’re spotlighting a chart we made for ICRIER’s State of India’s Digital Economy Report (SIDE), 2024.

In July, we published a set of video explainers in collaboration with Godrej Design Lab, the goal of which was to share key insights from their ‘Building A Climate Conscious India’ report focusing on low-carbon solutions for the buildings sector in India.

We wish you and your loved ones a very happy, prosperous and bright Diwali. 🪔 With a curious spark and clarity of thought, we hope to continue to enlighten one another in the pursuit to tell meaningful stories with data. ✨

We're finally back with another project post! Each of our projects have their own milestones and processes depending on the nature of the work, scope and more. In the first half of this year, we designed and developed an interactive dashboard of 100 impact stories by 3ie.

📊 Insight Out: Week 46 - An animated map showing the journeys of refugees from Ukraine to neighbouring countries. This week, we're sharing a map created for IOM’s 'Journeys of Resilience', an interactive story about the lives of refugees from Ukraine, amidst the ongoing war.

Our team is growing–and how! Nearly a year after she completed her 2 month internship with us, @rashitries.bsky.social has officially joined the RVL team as a designer.
