What is Sourcetable AI?

Sourcetable AI automates routine spreadsheet work by generating formulas and extracting insights from your data. Rather than manually writing formulas or spending time on repetitive calculations, you describe what you want to achieve and the tool creates the necessary formulas for you. It also helps identify patterns and trends in your spreadsheet data, turning raw numbers into actionable information. The tool works within spreadsheets themselves, so you don't need to learn new software or export data elsewhere. It's useful for anyone who spends significant time in spreadsheets but isn't a formula expert, including business analysts, finance teams, and data workers who want to work faster.
