Pie chart vs donut chart: which do you need?
The same chart separated by a hole. A pie chart fills the circle; a donut chart opens the center, which buys you two things: a spot for the headline number (total revenue, response count) and slightly easier size comparison, since your eye reads the arcs instead of judging wedge angles at the center.
When to pick which: pie when the chart stands alone and tradition matters, donut when it's going on a dashboard next to a number that deserves the middle.

How to make a pie chart with AI in 3 steps
1Add data, say what you want
Upload a CSV or Excel file, connect a Google Sheet, or paste two columns: categories and values. Raw numbers are fine, since shares are worked out for you. Then type "show marketing spend by channel"; ask for a donut and you get one.

One pie chart generator, four ways to slice it
Classic pie chart
The full circle, each slice a share of the whole. Right choice when you have one total and a handful of parts.
Donut chart
A pie with the center cut out, with room for a headline number, and slice sizes read a touch easier. Call it a donut graph or spell it doughnut; the donut chart maker draws the same ring.
Exploded pie chart
One slice pulled out from the circle to make a point. Highlight the segment the meeting is about, and leave the rest in place.
Semi-circle chart
Half a donut, gauge-style. A compact way to show progress toward a total in dashboards and one-pagers.
