How StatPlot works

  1. 1. Enter your trial data

    Choose a test, then paste your observations or upload a CSV or Excel file. One row per treatment, one column per replication, exactly as in your field notebook.

  2. bacabF **

    2. Run the analysis

    StatPlot picks the correct error term for the design and returns the ANOVA table, treatment means, SEm ±, SEd, CD at 5% and 1%, CV% and DMRT letters.

  3. XLSDOCPDF

    3. Download the report

    Save the full result as an Excel sheet, a PDF or a Word file, with tables laid out the way theses and research papers report them.

Choose a test

Paste your data or upload a CSV or Excel file. Each test shows the layout it needs before you start.

Planned next: Contrast analysis, Response surface design, Design layout.

Your data, as you already keep it

No reformatting into special templates. The layout you use in your field notebook or spreadsheet is the layout StatPlot reads.

  • One row per treatment, one column per replication.
  • Paste straight from Excel, or upload a .csv or .xlsx file.
  • Every test page shows a sample layout before you start.

What is StatPlot?

StatPlot is an online statistical analysis tool built for field experiments and thesis research. It brings the designs used in agricultural research together with the general tests found in SPSS-style software, in one place that runs in your browser.

Choose a test, paste your observations or upload a CSV or Excel file, and the analysis is done in seconds. The output follows the format of research tables: ANOVA with significance at 5% and 1%, treatment means with SEm ±, SEd, critical difference and CV%, and DMRT letters.

There is no software to install and no code to write, so you can spend your time on the experiment and the discussion, not on the calculations.

Who uses StatPlot

  • M.Sc. and Ph.D. students

    Thesis chapters on field trials, with ANOVA tables, CD, CV% and DMRT letters laid out as your guide expects.

  • Agricultural scientists

    Station trials, multi-location and multi-season experiments, and breeding nurseries at SAUs, ICAR institutes and KVKs.

  • Teachers and statistics courses

    Worked examples of CRD, RBD, factorial and split plot to show in class, with the full calculation laid out.

  • Social science, health and management research

    The everyday tests of a survey or clinical thesis: t-tests, chi-square, correlation, non-parametric tests, ANCOVA and reliability.

Why researchers choose StatPlot

  • Textbook methods

    Designs follow the standard procedures in Gomez and Gomez, Panse and Sukhatme, and the methods taught in agricultural universities.

  • Checked against R

    Every test has been compared with R and the agricolae package on published datasets, number by number.

  • Tables ready for the thesis

    Significance marked at 5% and 1%, means with SEm ±, SEd and CD, and letters beside each mean, in Excel, PDF or Word.

  • Your data stays yours

    Data is used only to compute your result. It is not stored on our servers after the calculation.

Frequently asked questions

What is StatPlot?

StatPlot is an online statistical analysis tool for field experiments, research and theses. You paste or upload your data, choose the design or test, and get the ANOVA table, means, SEm, CD, CV%, DMRT letters and other results, which you can download as Excel, PDF or Word.

Which experimental designs and tests can I run?

Designs: one-way ANOVA, CRD, RBD, two- and three-factor factorial, split plot, strip plot, and pooled RBD and CRD over environments. Plant breeding: genotypic and phenotypic correlation, heritability, correlation matrix, simple and multiple regression. General statistics: descriptive statistics, normality, t-tests, post-hoc tests, chi-square, correlation, non-parametric tests, Levene's test, unbalanced two-way ANOVA, ANCOVA, Cronbach's alpha and logistic regression.

Do I need to install SPSS, R or any other software?

No. StatPlot runs in your browser on a computer, tablet or phone. There is nothing to install and no code to write.

How should my data be arranged?

For most designs, one row per treatment and one column per replication, the way it is written in a field notebook. Each test page shows a sample layout and comes with example data you can run first.

Are the results accurate enough for a thesis or research paper?

The calculations follow standard textbook procedures and have been compared with R and the agricolae package on published datasets. You should still check that the test suits your experiment, and confirm the method with your guide if you are unsure.

Does StatPlot give DMRT, LSD and Tukey letters?

Yes. The designs show DMRT letters beside the treatment means, and the post-hoc test gives LSD, Duncan, Tukey and Bonferroni letters together, with the pairwise p-values.

Is my data safe?

Your data is sent over an encrypted connection, used only to compute the result, and not stored after the calculation. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Can I try it before paying?

Yes. Every test can be tried with your own data before you sign up.

What every result includes

The right error term for each factor

Split plot and strip plot tests use separate errors for main plots, sub plots and interactions, as in the standard layouts.

Significance at 5% and 1%

Every F value comes with its exact p-value and is marked **, * or NS, alongside the table F values.

Means ready to report

Treatment and interaction means with SEm ±, SEd and critical difference, in the order your tables need.

Start with one of your own trials.

Every test is open to try before you sign up.
