## Bowtie chart: a React and Figma chart in four sizes

### What does a bowtie chart show?

A bowtie chart joins a funnel that narrows to won deals with a fan that widens as revenue grows after the sale. The knot is the moment of winning. Use it for SaaS revenue models that count onboarding, adoption and expansion.

Chartory ships it as a Figma component and a React component with the same name. The code installs from the shadcn registry with one command and lands in your project as a file you own.

### What is the Bowtie component?

It is one **<Bowtie>** component. Its props are the Figma properties with the same names and values, and the props table above lists them. The data is counts before the win, revenue after.

Sizes **XS**, **S**, **M** and **L** re-lay the chart out from the data instead of scaling it, so labels stay readable at every size.

### When should I use it?

- **Does revenue grow after the sale?** Yes means the bowtie fits.
- **Is it one cohort?** Yes means the bowtie fits.
- **Are both sides needed?** Yes means the bowtie fits.

### When does another type fit better?

- **Only the steps to a sale.** Use Funnel instead.
- **Many cohorts over months.** Use Cohort instead.
- **Value in each stage.** Use Deal pipeline instead.

## Bowtie questions

### Does the Bowtie chart work with shadcn/ui?

Yes. It installs through the shadcn registry with the shadcn CLI, and the file lands in your project.

### How do I install it?

It is free in Hearth and MIT licensed: add the @chartory registry URL once, no token, then run npx shadcn add @chartory/bowtie. The Installation guide has the steps.

### Can my coding agent install it?

Yes. Connect the Chartory MCP server and ask for the bowtie chart; the agent runs the same command and you review the diff.

### What data does it expect?

Counts before the win, revenue after. The sample data comes with the component, and the props table lists every field.

### Which sizes does it ship in?

XS, S, M and L, in Figma and in code. Each size is laid out again from the data, so text and lines keep their size.

### Is it in the Figma file too?

Yes. chart/087-bowtie-revenue has the same properties as the component.

### Does it follow light and dark mode?

Yes. Every paint is a token, so the chart follows light and dark mode and the collection you pick.

### Which plan has the code?

None for Hearth: it is free in the public registry, no token. The Signal collection (@chartory/signal) comes with Code and Complete.
