amCharts animates beautifully if you are willing to write code for it. PlotSet gives you animated charts and video from a spreadsheet.
Choose amCharts if you are a developer who wants a highly animated, deeply customisable charting library and can work with its per-developer licensing. Choose PlotSet if you want the same visual result without code, hosting or a build pipeline — and need video output.
amCharts is a JavaScript charting library known for polished animation and a very broad chart and map range, all included in one library. It can be used free of charge with an attribution link rendered on the chart; removing that requires a commercial licence purchased per developer. As with any library, data loading, hosting and responsive behaviour are your responsibility.
PlotSet is a hosted no-code platform: 300+ templates, spreadsheet import, animated charts, live embeds on every plan, MP4 video export on every plan, and plugins for Figma, Google Sheets and Chrome.
amCharts animates in the browser; PlotSet can turn that animation into a file. If your chart lives inside an application you are already building, amCharts is a sensible dependency. If your chart needs to appear in a video, a social post or an article without an engineer, a library is the wrong shape of tool.

amCharts is a strong library and its animation quality is one of the better arguments for using a library at all. It also assumes a developer. PlotSet is aimed at the majority of chart work that never justifies engineering time — and adds video rendering, which no charting library provides.
A spreadsheet and a browser, not a package and a build step.
MP4 video export on every plan; amCharts animates only in-browser.
Nothing to deploy or keep running.
PlotSet's free plan does not stamp a link onto your visualization.
Figma, Google Sheets and Chrome integrations, plus a 13-tool MCP server.
Bring the data that feeds your amCharts instances into PlotSet and select a matching template. Charts with custom interaction logic are usually better kept in code; standard and animated charts port well.
It can be used free with an amCharts attribution link displayed on the chart. Removing the link requires a commercial licence bought per developer. PlotSet's free plan carries no link on your chart.
