24 alternatives to Privacy-first cross platform spreadsheet pipeline app
In my previous role at a small startup, I frequently developed simple scripts to assist recruiters and marketing professionals in handling data processing tasks on Excel or CSV files. These tasks were typically straightforward and repetitive, stemming from the periodic export of data. This experience sparked the idea to create a straightforward tool dedicated to such functionalities(also mobile friendly, as they occasionally need to process data on their smartphones). There are powerful tools like Power Query and Tableau, but they often prove too complex for non-technical users to navigate…

OpenSheet▲86Hi folks. I've been doing some experiments on how LLMs could get more handy in the day to day of working with files (CSV, Parquet, etc). Earlier last year, I built https://datakit.page and evolved it over and over into an all in-browser experience with help of duckdb-wasm. Got loads of feedbacks and I think it turned into a good shape with being an adhoc local data studio, but I kept hearing two main things/issues: Why can't the AI also change cells in the file we give to it? Why can't we modify this grid ourselves? So besides the whole READ and text-to-SQL flows, what seemed…

We built what we're calling "operational spreadsheets" – spreadsheets that can actually execute actions across external systems, not just calculate and display data. The core idea: spreadsheets have been passive tools for 40 years. You put data in, formulas process it, you export it, manually move it somewhere else, repeat. We added bidirectional API integration with natural language commands, so the spreadsheet itself can send emails, update databases, orchestrate workflows across services – autonomously. Think of it as the evolution from VisiCalc → Excel → Google Sheets (multi-user) →…

Soucetable syncs with databases including Postgres, MySQL, and MongoDB, and over 100+ business applications including Stripe, Zendesk, Hubspot, Quickbooks and Google Analytics. That data is available in a spreadsheet, and any models you build automatically update in near-real-time as new data flows in. The core primitives…

Hiya HN! TextQuery is my sabbatical project that I have been working on for the past six months. It was born out of a personal pain point. Anytime I wanted to analyze raw CSV data, I had to create a schema first before I could import it for querying. And to create charts, I had to use yet another tool. I also disliked how bad charts from popular tools like Excel, Google Sheets looked like. I wanted an easier way to do this and TextQuery was my solution: an all-in-one tool to query CSV files using SQL and create beautiful visualizations as well. Currently, it's a macOS app and focused on CSV…
