Dear all,
My name is Matt, and I'm a co-founder at
Plotly. We have a
MATLAB API for online, publication-quality plotting that works with Octave (on GitHub
here).
I wanted to follow-up on an earlier thread. Thanks to discussion from this group, we changed our plans. So, first, thanks for the feedback and suggestions. Our terms are now: you retain the rights to your content, public plotting is free, and you control whether your graphs are public or private.
Hosting happens on Plotly, where we're dreaming of building a GitHub for data and graphs. We just shipped profiles (
here is a fun one) and are working on a feed.
Other features:
- Make publication-quality, online plots with a GUI and code.
- Fits, error bars, stats, and functions.
- Embed interactive graphs in an iframe (Washington Post example), or download and export.
- Collaborative, so you can edit with others, comment on your graphs, and save revision history.
- Free for public use, you control sharing, and you own your data (like GitHub).
- Plans here, TOU here.
- Generate plots in IPython Notebooks (Plotly gallery) (see here for more on the Python-MATLAB bridge).
We would love to hear your thoughts, suggestions, feedback, and guidance. As an early startup, your feedback and advice goes a long way for us.
All my best,
Matt
