Over the past few years, my team and I kept running into the same painful problems: spreadsheets slowing us down while dealing with hiring pipelines, financial models, and operational workflows. We were spending hours moving data around, parsing documents, and double-checking numbers manually. It was frustrating, and it distracted us from the real work of making decisions.
So we built Grid1 — first as an internal tool to automate what slowed us down. It changed how we worked overnight. Suddenly, resumes were parsed automatically, contracts summarized, and financial scenarios modeled without the grunt work. It freed us to focus on decisions, not data entry.
Now we’re opening Grid1 up for everyone, because these problems aren’t just ours. Every team that relies on spreadsheets deserves a smarter, faster way forward.
What is Grid1?
We’ve all used spreadsheets as the backbone of our work, but they haven’t evolved in decades. They’re powerful, but also repetitive and time-consuming. Grid1 is our answer to that problem. We built it so every cell isn’t just a static box — it’s an intelligent agent. Cells can now pull data, analyze documents, and surface insights automatically, freeing you from the grind of manual work and letting you focus on decisions that matter.
Key Features
- Agent-powered cells: Cells that go beyond formulas — they can read PDFs, parse images, and connect with APIs.
- Multi-modal intelligence: Work with documents, numbers, and unstructured data in the same grid.
- Decision-ready insights: Automate the steps between raw data and clear answers.
- Familiar interface: If you know spreadsheets, you know Grid1 — just smarter and faster.
Use-Cases
- Recruiting: Parse resumes and candidate profiles, shortlist automatically.
- Consulting: Analyze reports, benchmark competitors, and create summaries in minutes.
- Finance: Model scenarios, detect anomalies, and parse filings with less manual work.
- Sales: Enrich leads, score prospects, and draft outreach right inside the grid.
- Marketing: Pull campaign data, optimize performance, and generate new creative ideas.
- Operations: Cross-check compliance docs and automate reporting for smooth workflows.
Get Involved
Grid1 is currently in beta. We’re inviting early teams to try it out, share feedback, and help shape the future of intelligent spreadsheets.
