Prompt that finds what a chart is hiding from you Most people screenshot a chart just to save it. This prompt hands the image to Claude or ChatGPT and asks what the visualization is hiding, catching truncated axes and cherry-picked ranges that make a messy trend look clean.

Here's a screenshot of a chart. [upload the image]
Read it like a skeptical analyst, not a reader.
1. Tell me plainly what it actually shows, stripped of any spin
2. Tell me what it's hiding: a misleading axis, a cherry-picked time range, a trend that reverses if you zoom out, a comparison that isn't fair
3. Tell me the question this chart makes me NOT ask that I should be asking
4. If you had the underlying data, what's the one thing you'd want to check
Be direct about whether this chart is honest.
