Up to eight stat tiles stagger in diagonally, each figure counting up as its tile lands, one tile carrying the accent.

What Is the Stat Grid?
When a video needs to land several numbers at once, a grid beats a sequence of single stats. This element arranges up to eight small white tiles in one to four columns, each carrying a short label and a figure with optional prefix and suffix. One tile can take the accent colour to mark the headline number among the set. The tiles arrive on a diagonal wave rather than all together, which gives the eye a path through the grid and buys a few seconds of interest while the viewer takes in the whole set. It is the shape for year-in-review recaps, campaign results, launch metrics and channel stats.
How It Works
Tiles enter from the top left corner outward, each one offset by a few frames from its neighbours above and to the left, so the arrival reads as a diagonal sweep. Each tile rises and scales slightly into place, and its figure counts up from zero over the frames immediately after it lands, meaning the numbers resolve in the same diagonal order. The accent tile uses the same motion with a filled surface, so it reads as part of the set rather than a separate graphic.

Best Platforms for Stat Grid
Instagram Reels
Year-end recap Reels need to show a lot in a short window. A grid that assembles diagonally holds attention through the build and leaves every number on screen for the final hold.
Company milestone posts usually list numbers as text. A grid renders them as a designed set, and the accent tile tells the reader which achievement the post is actually about.
Choosing the column count for a vertical frame
Column count is the main layout decision and it depends on how many figures you have and how long the labels are. Two columns is the safest choice in a nine by sixteen frame: tiles stay wide enough for two-word labels and figures up to six characters without shrinking. Three columns works when every figure is short, such as percentages or counts under a thousand. Four columns is really for a horizontal canvas, where the extra width exists. One column turns the grid into a vertical list, which suits three big numbers read out in order. Whatever you pick, the tiles scale from the grid width, so the type size adjusts and nothing overflows; the constraint is legibility on a phone, not layout breakage.
Stat grid or several sparkline cards: picking the right one
Both show multiple metrics, and the difference is whether trend matters. The stat grid shows figures only, so it fits more of them and reads as a summary: eight numbers, one glance, one accent. Sparkline stat cards each carry a small trend line, which means each one is taller and only two or three fit in a vertical frame, but the viewer sees direction as well as value. Use the grid for a recap where the numbers are the achievement, and sparkline cards for a dashboard where the shape of each metric over time is part of the point. Both use the same white surface and colourways, so mixing them across a video stays visually consistent.
How many stats fit in the grid?
Up to eight tiles. More than that shrinks the type below comfortable phone reading size in a vertical frame. For a longer list, run two grids back to back on the timeline, or drop the least important figures.
Do all the numbers count up at the same time?
No. Each figure counts up just after its own tile lands, and tiles arrive on a diagonal stagger, so the numbers resolve in reading order from the top left. The whole grid finishes within the build phase.
Can I highlight more than one tile?
One tile takes the accent. That is deliberate: two accents give the viewer no place to look first. If two numbers are equally important, consider splitting them into two separate beats in the video.
Can each tile have its own currency or unit?
Yes. Prefix and suffix are set per tile, so one can read a dollar figure, another a percentage and another a plain count, all inside the same grid. That lets a single recap mix revenue, growth rate and raw subscriber numbers without splitting them across two cards.
