Create spreadsheets as powerful as apps. Spreadsheet.com is the spreadsheet you already know with the power of a database and project management system, combined with no-code automations, integrations, and real-time collaboration.
@mattrobinson Thanks - will try it out later. Had tried out Rows.com for something I wanted but it didn't quite get to the finish line for me. Hoping y'all do!
Congrats on launch @MattRobinson 🔥
Looking forward to giving this a whirl - the versatility of what you've built here is so robust. This is game changing. Put simply -> This sheet is impressive.
Super excited for Matt and Murali on the unveiling of Spreadsheet.com. They've been working a ton on the product and have a good deal of real-world experience that helped to bring this to life, but I'll let the makers join in and explain things. I'm just happy to share this personal connection.
Congrats. I see the template Employee Directory, and I think that interesting to have an external API. So, to allow third-party connect the import data. For example, create automatically the email signatures with the Spreadsheet Employee Directory template + Bybrand
I must comment before I gotta go out now. The pricing is much reasonable price for Startup and Personal-Manager, Owner, ... and much more funtion better than which ever Database Table I've used such as Airtable, Stackyby, Infinity, ... Must to say, absolutely fixed my needs! I wish the Spreadsheet will have something to feedback like as Uservoice or maybe I couldn't find the Feedback link. By the way I'd love to the Form view but can not edit (like Microsoft List UI/UX), click on the List can show the Form view the right side and click Edit button if needed. I have to buy the Standard for my Personal & Team, totally in love from UI to UX which I can not find in another platform before. Keep going! Cheers.
Its beautiful and nice UI, Congrats.
I have a question.
Lets say I create a sheet db, will I be able to access it with a API? example, I want to populate my data from my webform(from custom domain, CORS). And I want to look at the results as a spreadsheet (and edit it also). With dbs like firebase this is pain to deal with. (I am aware of third party hacks/workarounds for googlesheets etc.. but they are not official API's.)
Thank you @prakis. Yes you will be able to work with spreadsheets programmatically using an API that will soon be released in beta for early adopters. Zapier integration is also coming soon, which may be an option for you to connecting Firebase and Spreadsheet.com.
Ehi, nice iteration, may I ask:
How do you compare yourself to Airtable?
I mean, branding/style/product looks incredibly similar. There must be something you do better than Airtable (apart from pricing). Only thing that came to my eyes is the ability to have classic spreadsheets instead of a database-like structure.
Anyhow, is very healthy to see some competition in this space brought by indie startups (not copy paste from huge corps like microsoft..)
Good luck!
Thanks for your feedback @antonio_gagliardi1. A simple way to answer this is that Spreadsheet.com is an actual spreadsheet that works the same as Google Sheets and Excel, with additional capabilities of a relational database found in products like Airtable, and the capabilities of a project management system found in products like Asana, Monday.com, and Smartsheet. That's why we call it the "all-in-one" spreadsheet.
Regarding Airtable specifically, you might want to check out this longer answer in the Spreadsheet.com Community: https://community.spreadsheet.co...
The list of differences is long, including many traditional spreadsheet capabilities such as:
- A1 formula syntax
- Cell-level data types
- Cell-level styling and formatting
- Cross-workbook relationships
- Cross-worksheet formulas
- Support for over 400 formulas with identical syntax to Excel and Google Sheets
- Conditional formatting rules
- Merge cells
- Named ranges
- Granular version history
- Inline charts (coming soon)
... along with many capabilities not found in either traditional spreadsheets or products like Airtable (e.g. conditional automation logic, granular built-in Gantt views adjacent to the full worksheet, indentable row hierarchies with parent-level roll-ups, custom formula functions for working with hierarchical data, and much more to come).
I love a good project management system and that Gantt-chart function/graph looks clean!
I'm also a huge fan of being able to build custom automation.
?makers what would you say is the competitive advantage to something like Airtable?
Thanks @andrew_tsao, looking forward to your feedback.
The short answer is that Spreadsheet.com is an actual spreadsheet that also works like a database and project management system.
Unlike other products, Spreadsheet.com looks, feels, and functions the same as traditional spreadsheets like Excel and Google Sheets (i.e. over 400 formulas with identical syntax, cell-level styling and data types, etc.), with a whole new set of capabilities typically found in modern collaborative work management products like Airtable, Smartsheet, Monday.com, Asana, Trello, and others.
We've found that over 90% of users of these apps also use traditional spreadsheets alongside them, leading to application sprawl and lots of context switching. This is why we're building a spreadsheet with the capabilities of a modern collaborative work management system built right in as native features.
Our template gallery (https://www.spreadsheet.com/temp...) has many examples that illustrate the differences, such as:
- Product Market Fit Survey & Analysis
- Applicant Tracking with Hiring Budget
- CRM with Opportunity Forecast
- Cap Table with Shareholder Database
- Project Budget
- Break-even Analysis
- Loan Amortization Calculator
...as well some of the most common types of spreadsheet templates: Invoice, Quote, and Purchase Order
We've gotten this specific question a fair bit, so we put together a longer answer you might want to check out in the Spreadsheet.com Community: https://community.spreadsheet.co...
@mattrobinson Appreciate you taking the time to answer! And totally can see the problem you mentioned when it comes to "application sprawl and lots of context switching."
I'm a huge advocate for Airtable but I often feel guilty for recommending it, especially for folks who don't care about the "relational back-end" functionality of it and already amass years of experience working with google sheet / excel complex functions and get deterred from the growing pains of learning Airtable.
You put it really succinctly in that community post: "Spreadsheet.com is an actual spreadsheet with additional capabilities, whereas products like Airtable are relational databases with some characteristics of a spreadsheet."!
Excited about this and looking forward to trying it out!
Thank you @stevesi for hunting us!

** How is Spreadsheet.com different? **
Spreadsheet.com looks, feels, and functions just like a traditional spreadsheet, with support for over 400 formula functions using identical syntax to Excel and Google Sheets, cell-level styling and formatting, cross-sheet formulas, and more. But it goes far beyond text and numbers with:
* Over 25 rich cell, range, and column-level data types like dropdowns and icon sets
* File attachments that live in cells with drag & drop upload, thumbnails, and document preview
* Worksheets that connect together like database tables, even across different workbooks
* Built-in project management features like Kanban views and Gantt timeline views
* Sharable and embeddable Form views for collecting data
… all with real time updates and messaging. It also includes a visual, no-code workflow editor for creating automations and integrations with other popular tools like Slack, Microsoft Teams, Gmail, and Mailchimp, without leaving your spreadsheets. For example, when a cell value changes to “Completed,” automatically send a Slack notification and create a new row in a different workbook.
** We'd love your feedback **

It has many useful features like a Gantt chart, tags, adding dependencies to items, etc., This will be the spreadsheet with all the features that you would expect to have in a spreadsheet for a long time. Totally in love with it!
@udhayakumar Thanks for the feedback. If it would help, let us know your company name or DM me with it privately and we'll make sure our Customer Success team offers time to connect.
@aung_thura2@mattrobinson Hi Matt, I also requested an account. I'm not part of a team but may be able to share some personal use cases. Always on the lookout for exciting new productivity tools.
Hey @mattrobinson, great product!!
I think, "The all-in-one spreadsheet" sentences on the landing page should be bold. So it makes the text obvious and cool. Just my thought.
