Building dynamic tables

Tables turn complex information into clear visual formats that readers can quickly understand. AI makes table creation much faster and smarter. Beyond basic rows and columns, dynamic tables adapt to tell your data's story while staying easy to read.

When prompting AI for tables, follow these guidelines:

  • Start prompts with clear descriptions of how data connects, for example, "Create a comparison table showing feature differences across three product levels, with checkmarks for included features and X marks for excluded ones."
  • Include format preferences that help readability, like alternating row colors or strategic borders.
  • Explain what readers should learn: "Help readers see the value of upgrading to higher product levels."
  • Ask for smart grouping that prevents information overload with large datasets.
  • Think about how tables will look on different devices and screens.
  • Request alternative presentations when tables become too complex, such as split views or summary sections.
