Audiogram Plotter

Interactive online audiogram plotter — click or drag points on the graph or type into the table to chart air and bone conduction hearing test results for both ears.

This works right here on your device — nothing gets sent out.

This tool plots hearing-test results you already have. It is not a hearing test and does not diagnose hearing loss — consult a qualified audiologist or clinician to interpret your results.

Click or tap the chart to place a threshold, drag a point to adjust it, or use the table below.

How Audiogram Plotter works

  1. Pick which ear and test type you're plotting from the "Plotting point for" selector — right or left ear, air or bone conduction — and check "Masked" on that row if the result was masked.
  2. Enter thresholds two ways at once: type a dB HL value directly into the table below the chart, or click anywhere on the chart to drop a point — both update the same data instantly, so the table and the graph never fall out of sync.
  3. Click an existing point to select it (it gets a highlighted ring), then drag it to fine-tune the threshold, or use the arrow keys to nudge the selected point up/down/between frequencies from the keyboard.
  4. The chart redraws instantly on every change, plotting each ear as a connected line — right ear in red with O marks, left ear in blue with X marks — using the standard ASHA symbol set for masked results and bone conduction (see the symbol key below the chart). Frequencies with no entered value are simply skipped, not drawn as a false 0 dB result.
  5. Check the "NR" box under any frequency to mark it as no response at the audiometer's maximum output — the chart pins that symbol to the bottom of the scale with the standard 45-degree arrow, instead of plotting it at an ordinary threshold.
  6. The frequency axis uses a logarithmic scale (matching a real clinical audiogram) so that equal-width columns represent equal octave steps, not equal Hz steps, with the 0 dB HL line drawn heavier so it stays easy to find.
  7. Below the chart, a summary line counts total plotted thresholds per ear, and each ear's average air-conduction threshold across its entered frequencies is classified into a standard severity band, from Normal through Profound.
  8. Use "Load sample data" to see a worked example, "Undo"/"Redo" to step back through edits, and "Download chart as PNG" or "Print" to save or share the finished chart — everything stays in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Reading the severity bands

The pure-tone average is classified as: 0–15 dB HL Normal, 16–25 dB HL Slight, 26–40 dB HL Mild, 41–55 dB HL Moderate, 56–70 dB HL Moderately severe, 71–90 dB HL Severe, and above 90 dB HL Profound. These bands follow the widely used clinical convention for describing pure-tone average hearing loss. This tool only plots and labels an average you already have — it does not perform a hearing test or diagnose hearing loss; consult a qualified audiologist or clinician to interpret your results.

FAQ

Can I plot an audiogram by clicking the graph instead of typing numbers?

Yes — pick the ear and test type from the "Plotting point for" selector, then click anywhere on the chart to place a threshold, or click an existing point to select it and drag it to a new position. Every graph edit updates the matching table cell immediately, and typing in the table updates the graph immediately too — they share the same data.

What do the X and O symbols mean?

This follows the standard ASHA audiogram convention: red O marks are the right ear's air-conduction thresholds and blue X marks are the left ear's. Bone conduction adds a second symbol pair, < / > for unmasked and [ / ] for masked results, and masked air conduction switches to a triangle (right) or square (left) — the same convention used on a clinical audiogram printout. See the symbol key below the chart.

Why does the chart go from -10 at the top to 120 at the bottom?

Audiograms plot hearing level (dB HL) with quieter, better-heard sounds at the top and louder thresholds — meaning worse hearing — lower down, so a line that drifts downward visually shows hearing loss increasing, matching the standard clinical chart layout.

What does the "NR" (no response) checkbox do?

Check it when a frequency was tested up to the audiometer's maximum output with no response. The chart pins that symbol to the bottom of the scale — the audiometer's practical maximum — with the standard 45-degree arrow attached, instead of plotting it at whatever number happens to be in the box, matching how audiologists mark an untestable threshold on a paper audiogram.

Why is bone conduction limited to 250–4000 Hz?

Bone-conduction oscillators can't reliably deliver frequencies above 4000 Hz, so clinical pure-tone audiometry only tests bone conduction at the octave frequencies from 250 Hz to 4000 Hz — this tool follows that same range.

Is this a substitute for a real hearing test?

No — this only visualizes numbers you already have (from an audiologist's report, for example) and estimates a severity band from the average. It cannot measure your hearing itself and does not diagnose hearing loss; use it to review or share results you already obtained from a proper pure-tone audiometry test, and consult a qualified audiologist or clinician for interpretation.

How do I read the finished audiogram chart?

The horizontal axis is frequency (pitch), from 250 Hz on the left to 8000 Hz on the right, plotted on a logarithmic scale so each column is an equal octave step. The vertical axis is loudness in dB HL, running from quiet at the top (-10) to loud at the bottom (120) — so a line that sits lower means a louder sound was needed to hear it, i.e. worse hearing at that frequency.

What do the severity bands (Normal, Mild, Moderate, Severe) mean?

Each ear's average air-conduction threshold across its entered frequencies is classified using the common clinical convention: 0-15 dB HL Normal, 16-25 Slight, 26-40 Mild, 41-55 Moderate, 56-70 Moderately severe, 71-90 Severe, and above 90 Profound. The tool computes and labels this average automatically below the chart for each ear; it is a descriptive label, not a diagnosis.

Does the downloaded PNG include the symbol key?

Yes — "Download chart as PNG" adds a compact legend beneath the chart listing only the series you've actually plotted, so the exported image is self-explanatory without the surrounding page.
