What is Piktochart?
We are a fun, curious, and diverse bunch of 44 people hailing from 15 nationalities. We share one mission — empowering people to communicate impactful stories.
Piktochart was started in 2011 when Ai Ching and Andrea founded Yet Another Studio — a graphic design agency based in Penang. Our first do-it-yourself infographic platform was born from 4 people working day and night out of a small Penang-based warehouse.
Today, Piktochart is a suite of visual and video tools, serving more than 11 million users.
