NVEIL

NVEIL Toolkit

Describe your data. Get production charts. Your data stays local.

Quickstart • API Reference • Examples • Changelog

NVEIL is an AI-powered data visualization toolkit. Write one line of natural language, and NVEIL processes your data and generates publication-ready visualizations — no chart code, no hallucinations, no data leaving your machine.

import nveil

nveil.configure(api_key="nveil_...")

Pass a file path directly — no DataFrame loading required.

spec = nveil.generate_spec("Revenue by region, colored by quarter", "sales.csv")

fig = spec.render("sales.csv") # 100% local — no API call nveil.show(fig) # opens in browser

From your shell

After pip install nveil the nveil command is on your $PATH:

export NVEIL_API_KEY=nveil_...

Ground yourself on the dataset (shape / dtypes / head preview)

nveil describe sales.csv

Generate HTML + PNG + a reusable .nveil spec, print the explanation

nveil generate "Revenue by region, colored by quarter" \ --data sales.csv --format all --explain

Re-render an existing spec on fresh data — no API call

nveil render chart.nveil --data new_sales.csv

For AI agents (Claude Code / Claude Desktop / Cursor / Codex / …)

NVEIL ships first-class integrations:

# Claude Code / Claude Desktop — install the bundled skill

nveil install-skill

Claude Desktop, Cursor, any MCP client — add an MCP server:

{"mcpServers": {"nveil": {"command": "nveil", "args": ["mcp"]}}}

nveil mcp # stdio server; launched by the MCP client

How It Works

Your Data ──> Toolkit ──metadata only──> NVEIL AI ──> Processing Plan ──> Local Execution ──> Result

^ ^ raw data stays here raw data stays here

1. You describe what you want in plain language
2. NVEIL AI plans the data processing and visualization (only metadata is sent — column names, types, statistics)
3. The Toolkit executes locally — joins, aggregations, pivots, rendering — all on your machine
4. You get a figure — Plotly, VTK, or DeckGL, auto-selected for your data

Key Features

🧠 Two Engines in One

Data processing (joins, pivots, aggregations, geocoding, time series) AND visualization generation from a single prompt.

🔒 Data Privacy by Design

Raw data never leaves your machine. Only column names, types, and aggregate statistics are sent.

📈 Multi-Backend Rendering

Auto-detects the best engine: Plotly (2D charts), VTK (3D/medical), DeckGL (geospatial).

🧪 Auditable Results

Powered by constraint solving, not random generation. Same input = same output, every time.

⚡ Offline Rendering

spec.render() runs 100% locally with zero API calls.

💾 Reusable Specs

Save to .nveil files, reload later, render on new data — no server needed.

Beyond Simple Charts

NVEIL handles geospatial heatmaps, 3D volumes, scientific visualizations, medical imaging (DICOM), biosignal data (EDF/EDF+), network graphs, and 50+ other visualization types — all from natural language.

Save Once, Render Forever

# Generate once (API call)

spec = nveil.generate_spec("Monthly trend by category", df) spec.save("trend.nveil")

Reload anywhere — no API call, no server, no cost

spec = nveil.load_spec("trend.nveil") fig = spec.render(fresh_data) nveil.save_image(fig, "report.png")

Installation

pip install nveil

Requirements: Python 3.10+

Getting Started

1. Create an account at app.nveil.com
2. Generate an API key in Settings
3. Start visualizing

import os

import nveil

nveil.configure(api_key=os.environ["NVEIL_API_KEY"])

spec = nveil.generate_spec("scatter plot of price vs area", df) fig = spec.render(df) nveil.show(fig)

See the examples/ directory for more usage patterns.
