Techniques are described for a real-time visualization of data in an integrated authoring environment. In one example, a method includes receiving text information. The method also includes comparing the dynamically entered text information against a data source, wherein the comparing comprises applying natural language processing (NLP) to determine one or more assertion statements in the text information that references data from the data source. The method also includes retrieving the referenced data associated with the one or more assertion statements from the data source. The method further includes generating a visual representation of the referenced data associated with the one or more assertion statements. The method also includes displaying the visual representation, wherein the visual representation is integrated with an authoring interface.
