The Only Matrix Table Built for Finance Teams Who Need Numbers AND Visuals in Power BI
If you’re presenting financial data in Power BI and stakeholders keep squinting at rows of numbers… if you’re manually adding sparklines in Excel because Power BI’s native tables can’t show inline bars… if your CFO wants to see categories with visual performance indicators and you can’t deliver it…
You’re not alone.
Here’s what’s different: This isn’t another basic table visual. This is a professional matrix table with inline bar charts, frozen category columns, Small Multiples mode for multi-measure comparison, synchronized row highlighting, and responsive design that works from dashboard tiles to full-screen presentations.
Real Finance Teams. Real Results.
“We present monthly KPIs across 12 cost centers to our executive team. Before this visual, we had tables of numbers that nobody wanted to look at. Now? Each row shows the category with inline bars that instantly communicate performance. The Small Multiples mode lets us show Revenue, Cost, and Margin side by side. Our executives actually engage with the data now.”
— Finance Manager, Retail Company
Here’s What You Get (That You Can’t Get Anywhere Else)
Inline Bar Charts in Every Row
Numbers are good. Numbers with bars are better. Each value displays with a proportional bar that makes comparison instant. No more scanning columns of figures—see performance at a glance.
Small Multiples Mode
Show multiple measures side by side in a matrix layout. Revenue, Cost, Margin—each in its own column with inline bars. Compare across categories AND across measures in one compact visual.
Frozen Category Column
Scroll through your values while category labels stay visible. No more losing track of which row you’re looking at. The frozen column keeps context always visible.
Synchronized Row Highlighting
Hover over any cell and the entire row highlights across frozen and value areas. Track performance across measures without losing your place.
The Real Cost of NOT Having This
For Finance Teams:
- You’re presenting tables of numbers that executives skim over or ignore
- Comparing values across categories requires mental math instead of visual patterns
- Wide tables lose context when scrolling because category names disappear
- Multiple measures require multiple visuals that don’t align properly
- You’re exporting to Excel just to add conditional formatting and sparklines
For Controllers and FP&A:
- Monthly reports take longer because you need charts AND tables for the same data
- Stakeholders ask “which cost center is worst?” and you point at a number they can’t find
- Comparing Revenue vs Cost vs Margin means switching between three separate visuals
- Dashboard space is wasted on redundant tables and charts showing the same data
- Row-level analysis is painful because hover states don’t span the full row
Bottom line? Your tables are just data dumps. They should be communication tools. Numbers with visual context get understood. Numbers alone get ignored.
What You Actually Get
Every feature. No compromises. Built by finance professionals, for finance professionals.

Inline Bar Charts

How To Get Started (It’s Stupidly Simple)
Step 1: Request your trial license below (takes 30 seconds)
Step 2: Install the visual in Power BI (takes 2 minutes)
Step 3: Connect your data—Category and Value fields (takes 5 minutes)
Step 4: Watch your stakeholders finally see patterns in the numbers
That’s it. No consultants. No training sessions. No complex setup. Just connect your data and go.
Who This Is For (And Who It’s NOT For)
This IS for you if:
- You’re in FP&A and need tables that communicate, not just display data
- You’re a Controller presenting cost center comparisons with visual context
- You’re a Business Analyst building dashboards where tables need to tell a story
- You need to show multiple measures side by side with inline visualization
- You want tables with frozen columns that don’t lose context when scrolling
- You’re tired of executives ignoring your tables because they’re just walls of numbers
- Your stakeholders need to see patterns, not just read figures
This is NOT for you if:
- You just need a simple data grid with no visual elements (use Power BI’s built-in)
- You don’t need inline bars or visual comparison across rows
- You’re not using Power BI (this is a Power BI custom visual)
- You’re looking for free software (this is professional-grade tooling with support)
Common Questions (Before You Ask)
Q: Does it work with my existing Power BI data model?
A: Yes. You need a Category field and a Value field. Add multiple values for Small Multiples mode. Works with any data source Power BI supports.
Q: What’s Small Multiples mode?
A: Add multiple measures to the Value field. Each measure gets its own column with inline bars. Compare Revenue, Cost, and Margin in one compact matrix layout.
Q: How do the inline bars work?
A: Each value displays with a proportional bar scaled to the column’s data range. Larger values get longer bars. Comparison is instant and visual.
Q: What’s the frozen category column?
A: Category labels stay pinned to the left while you scroll through value columns. You always see which row you’re looking at, even in wide tables.
Q: Can I customize colors to match our corporate branding?
A: Everything is customizable. Bar colors. Background colors. Font sizes. Column widths. Make it match your brand.
Q: Does it handle many rows efficiently?
A: Yes. The visual is optimized for performance with responsive rendering that scales to your data size.

From the CEO (Why We Built This)
I’m Stefan. CEO at LeapLytics.
We built this because tables in Power BI were broken.
Every table visual was either too basic (just numbers, no visuals) or too complex (required custom development to add inline charts).
Finance teams were presenting walls of numbers that executives skipped over. Controllers couldn’t show cost center comparisons with visual context. FP&A had to build separate charts just to visualize the same data that was already in their tables.
So we built what we actually wanted:
→ Inline bar charts in every row (not separate visuals)
→ Small Multiples mode for multi-measure comparison (not multiple tables)
→ Frozen category columns that keep context (not “scroll and forget”)
→ Synchronized row highlighting (not “which row was I on?”)
→ Responsive design that works everywhere (not “resize manually”)
→ Dynamic titles from your data (not hardcoded labels)
We use this tool internally. Our consulting clients use it for executive dashboards. It’s not perfect, but it’s the best Matrix Table visual in Power BI. By a lot.
If you’re presenting tabular data and need it to communicate visually—this is for you.
