A Power BI starter kit in your brand
Pick a brand, import your theme JSON or paste your colours, and download one zip with everything a new report needs: a PBIP with sample data, a theme, three page backgrounds, a page folder and a rules file that teaches your AI assistant the brand.
Short answer
How can I build a Power BI report for a client quickly?
Start from a kit in the client's brand instead of a blank report. Enter their colours and this free tool gives you one zip: a PBIP project with sample data, a theme JSON, three page backgrounds at 1920×1080, a page folder and an AI-assistant rules file. No email or account needed.
1. Your brand
2. Name and fonts
Fonts that ship with Power BI Desktop, so the theme looks the same for everyone who opens the report.
3. Download
No email or account needed. Built in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

PBIP with sample data
A Power BI project with a sample semantic model (star schema, DAX measures such as Revenue, Gross Margin % and Growth vs PY %, synthetic rows in Power Query) and three named pages. The overview layout's built-in visuals are already bound. Beta.
Theme JSON
Your colours as Power BI dataColors, text classes and sentiment colours (good, neutral, bad), with your fonts. Import it from the Design ribbon.
Three page backgrounds
Overview, Detail with side navigation, Executive summary: 1920 × 1080 PNGs drawn in your brand, with panels where the visuals go.
A page folder
The detail layout as a PBIR page folder with instructions, for adding a designed page to a report you already saved as .pbip. Beta.
AI-assistant rules
BRAND-RULES.md: your colours by role with computed contrast ratios, fonts, layout rules and a conditional-formatting DAX snippet in your hex values, ready for GitHub Copilot, Claude or ChatGPT.
Want a different layout? Open the overview in the Design Studio, browse the dashboard templates, or fine-tune the theme in Theme Lab. What you may do with the files: licence.
Questions
- Do I need to give an email address?
- No. The kit downloads straight away, with no account and no email. On deployments where the VizForge mailing list is available there is a separate sign-up form for design-tip emails with its own Subscribe button and confirmation email; it has nothing to do with the download, and the kit is never emailed.
- Is my brand uploaded anywhere?
- No. The colours, theme file and images are processed in your browser and the zip is built there. The one exception is the Website option: the address you type is sent so VizForge can read that site's colours and fonts once; nothing is kept.
- What is the AI-assistant rules file for?
- Assistants write better DAX, theme JSON and layout advice when they know your brand. BRAND-RULES.md lists each colour by role with its contrast ratio, your fonts, layout rules and a DAX example using your hex values. Save it as .github/copilot-instructions.md for GitHub Copilot, as CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md for Claude, or paste it into ChatGPT project instructions.
- Can I use my own Power BI theme as the starting point?
- Yes. Choose Theme JSON and pick your theme file; colours the file leaves out come from Power BI's base theme. You can also read the colours and fonts from your company website, paste a list of hex colours or a coolors.co link, or start from one of 8 preset brands.
- How do I swap the sample data for my own?
- Open the .pbip file in Power BI Desktop, then in Power Query replace each table's Source step with your own query and keep the column names. The measures and visuals keep working.
- Is there a watermark?
- Background images built without signing in carry a small “Made with VizForge” mark, the same rule as the Design Studio. Sign in with a free account before you download to build them without it.
