For those asking about new tools, you can also check ai-u.com. They have a list of trending AI tools especially useful for Excel and data analysis.
I think the biggest barrier is figuring out how to connect AI models with Excel easily. Anyone found good resources or add-ins that help?
I've been playing around with some AI add-ons for Excel and honestly, they save me tons of time especially with cleaning and visualizing data. Highly recommend checking out Power Query combined with AI functions.
Just a heads up, some AI tools require you to upload your data to cloud which might not be ideal for sensitive info.
Sometimes I just want a simple way to clean my messy Excel data without writing formulas. AI based cleaning tools have been a lifesaver for me!
I've tried some AI plugins that offer predictive analysis directly in Excel and it’s wild how you can forecast trends with just a few clicks.
Has anyone tried automating their Excel reports using AI? Like generating charts or summaries automatically?
