# Area Chart Widget for Notion

The **Area Chart Widget** brings soft visuals and powerful insights to your Notion workspace. It’s ideal for visualizing data over time while also showing the magnitude or “volume” of that data through filled color beneath the curve.

Think of it as a line chart with emotional depth — it not only tells you where things are going, but how *much* is happening.
