Sankey diagrams are powerful — but time-consuming to create by hand. This script automates the entire process, making it ideal for infographics, reports, dashboards, and publication layouts. If you work in print or digital design, Core Simple Sankey helps you move faster without sacrificing precision.

Key Features
– Native Illustrator Script (.jsx)
– No extensions. No third-party tools. Just run the script inside Illustrator and generate a professional Sankey chart directly on your artboard.

Custom Chart Title
Add a bold 14pt title at the top of your chart with one click — ideal for polished presentations and publication-ready designs.

Clean, Guided Input
Enter labels and values through a simple, intuitive popup form. No spreadsheets, no manual calculations — just click Generate and your diagram is ready.

Auto-Generated Color Swatches
Each flow is automatically assigned a unique color and added to your Swatches panel. Swatches are named based on your data titles (e.g., “Email,” “Website”) for consistent styling throughout your design.

Smart Layout Controls
Fine-tune spacing, curve smoothness, distance from source to target, and flow alignment (Top, Center, or Bottom). Every setting is built with designers in mind.
