What it is
Connection Map lists entities as horizontal rows and draws bezier arcs between them, with arc thickness = connection strength. When you want a chord diagram but with searchable, sortable rows down the side, this is it.
What it does
Vertical entity list with bezier arcs across, sorted by total strength, with hover and cross-filter.
Why use it
Easier to scan than a chord ring when entity names matter — labels stay readable.
Three ways teams use it
Sales
Account ↔ account referral strength.
HR
Team ↔ team collaboration intensity.
Cyber
Asset ↔ asset traffic volume.
