While there are still clear limitations, you are probably falling behind now if you are not using spreadsheet agents as a tool in your work.

This is exactly what I meant. We're moving from 'how do I do this in Excel' to 'just do this for me'

We are just here to review

such a killer demo! Pumped to run everything we do at a16z through this haha

The puppy face chart is unreal

me w my shortcut agents

trying to figure out how Shortcut is producing puppy face data like

lol

Windows only excel?

We have it on web, plugin for sheets, and add in for excel. Windows or Mac is fine!

👀🤝

“10x faster” you love to see it

🔥

v0.5!

what’s actually unique compared to claude for excel? i like this solution a lot, but claude is already really powerful with excel

Excel is to us what coding is to anthropic Try both and let me know if it’s not clear

If you could create a way that this model can pull SEC data quickly and easily, you will get so many people subscribing. I would take your subscription over Bloomberg any day

It pulls from already if you ask! More integrations on the way

So cool! I will sign back up!

the ending is crazy

🔥

this is insane 🔥

Free to use let me know how you like it :)

🔥

This is insane

just in time for end of year reporting!

Question: If I work at a large company and I try and use this to help with work, will I get into legal trouble from you storing confidential data? How does it work?

huge

nico this is sick (as a practitioner) overkill but: securitization cash waterfall modeling + attachment / detachment estimation maybe next iteration? ABS brothers gotta eat

the skill floor compression is massive. spreadsheet mastery becomes procedural. 13-tab institutional models going from expert-only to commodity. the next play is what replaces the spreadsheet entirely

Ngl, that sounds like Excel on caffeine! 😂

Incredible. Curious—how do you guarantee (now or LT) to finance users (e.g. IB M&A analysts) that this outputs clean fin models or P&L sheets with correct data assembly, zero hallucinations, and full alignment with firm practices? Today analysts spend ~80% time building models, 20% verifying. Per convos with funds/banks, AI flips it to 20% building, 80% verifying - minimal real time saved irl.

IB is cooked

👀👀

.@EuSpRIG

API/MCP?

With Shortcut and Wisesheets what you can do is limitless! Imagine building a DCF with Shortcut and getting all the data via Wisesheets functions to make it dynamic 🤯

Check dm

This is wicked!

wow this is cool, congrats !!

Hi @nicochristie me again! Pls check your DMs..

@Coolycrew

Let me try and I'll judge. Most agents suck
