Make the file

An AI spreadsheet generator that finds the data too

Describe the spreadsheet and Rixx researches the figures, builds an Excel file with working formulas and native charts, and puts a source next to every researched number.

Jobs to try

  • Competitor pricing matrix: Build a spreadsheet comparing the published pricing of 8 email marketing tools for small businesses: plan names, monthly and annual prices, contact limits and key features, with a source link for every row.
  • Market sizing table: Create a bottom-up market sizing model for meal-kit delivery in the UK: households, adoption rate, order frequency and average order value as sourced inputs, formulas for TAM, SAM and SOM, and a chart.
  • Researched company list: Research 30 B2B fintech companies in Germany founded after 2015. For each, list website, what they do, headquarters city, founding year and latest reported funding round, with a source link.
  • Operating budget: Make a 12-month operating budget for a 10-person software agency with inputs for salaries, rent, tools and contractors. Calculate monthly burn and runway from a starting cash balance and chart cash over time.
  • KPI tracker: Build a monthly KPI tracker for a subscription business with MRR, new customers, churn, net revenue retention and CAC payback, formulas for every derived metric and a dashboard tab with charts.

What you get back

  • Excel workbook (.xlsx): A working file that opens in Excel, Google Sheets and Numbers, with inputs, calculations and outputs on clearly labelled tabs.
  • Working formulas: Totals, growth rates, margins and scenarios are live formulas. Rixx recalculates the workbook and checks for errors before handing it back.
  • Sources tab: Every researched figure has a link in a source column or on a sources tab, so anyone can click through and check where a number came from.
  • Native charts: Excel charts built from the cells in the sheet, so they update when the data changes. CSV and PNG copies on request.

Researched and cited by default

No search toggle and no research mode to switch on. Rixx researches the live web before it answers a factual question, reads the files you give it, and cites every fact it uses.

Most spreadsheet generators lay out a table for data you already have. Rixx starts a step earlier. Ask for a pricing comparison, a market sizing model or a list of companies, and it researches the live web for the figures, builds the workbook, and records a source for every number it found.

The result is an Excel file that works: real formulas, native charts, a sources tab, and a recalculation and error check before you open it.

What makes the file trustworthy

Formulas, not pasted numbers. A typed-in total breaks the first time you change an input. Rixx builds totals, ratios, growth rates and scenarios as formulas, so the sheet stays live.

Recalculated and checked. Before handing the file back, Rixx recalculates the workbook and looks for formula errors, broken references and totals that do not add up, and fixes what it finds.

A source for every researched figure. A market size or a competitor price is only useful if you can defend it. Rixx puts the link in a source column or on a sources tab, so "where did this come from?" has an answer.

A clear structure. Inputs, calculations and outputs sit on separate, labelled tabs, so a colleague can follow the logic.

An AI Excel sheet generator for researched tables

The jobs where Rixx saves the most time are the ones where finding the data is the hard part:

Spreadsheet What Rixx researches What it builds
Competitor pricing matrix Published pricing pages and plan limits Comparison table, price-per-seat formulas, chart
Market sizing table Population, adoption and spend data from official and industry sources TAM, SAM and SOM formulas with sourced inputs
Company or vendor list Public company information, funding news, product pages One row per company with a source link per row
Benchmark table Published benchmarks for churn, margins, CAC or salaries Benchmark ranges next to your own figures
Country comparison Official statistics such as GDP, population and inflation Normalised comparison table with charts

For bigger lists, Rixx can split the research across parallel agents, for example to profile 30 companies at once, and merge the results into one sheet.

Spreadsheets from your own data

Rixx also builds spreadsheets from files you upload. Attach a CSV, an Excel export or a PDF with tables and ask for a cleaned, extended workbook. In a job, Rixx runs Python with pandas and DuckDB in its own private workspace, so the cleaning and calculations cover every row.

  • "Clean this export, remove duplicates and add a pivot by region."
  • "Turn the tables in this PDF into one workbook, one sheet per table."
  • "Build a forecast tab from this sales history and chart it."

For analysis-first work, see AI to analyze Excel data and AI for data analysis.

Worked example: a pricing comparison

Ask, "Compare the published pricing of 10 project management tools."

  1. Rixx researches each tool's current pricing page and notes the plans, monthly and annual prices, user limits and headline features.
  2. It builds one row per plan, with a source link on every row.
  3. It adds formulas for annual savings, price per user at 10 and 50 seats, and a rank.
  4. It adds a native chart of price per user by tool.
  5. It recalculates the workbook, checks it and hands it back.

Then keep going in the same chat: "add a column for free-trial length" or "convert everything to EUR at today's rate, with the source for the rate".

Spreadsheet, then the rest of the job

A spreadsheet is often one step in a larger job. In the same chat, Rixx can turn the workbook into a Word memo, an editable PowerPoint with native charts, or a cited report. Building a forecast or runway model? Use the AI financial model. Need one chart rather than a workbook? Try the AI chart generator.

Tips for better spreadsheets

  • Name the columns you want. "Plan, monthly price, annual price, user limit" beats "pricing info".
  • Say the units and currency. Rixx will convert and cite the exchange rate it used.
  • Ask for scenarios up front. Base, upside and downside cases are easier to build in than to bolt on.
  • Ask for a notes column. Rixx can flag figures where sources disagree or the data is estimated.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI spreadsheet generator use real formulas?

Yes. Totals, ratios, growth rates and scenario outputs are formulas in the sheet, so changing an input updates everything that depends on it. Rixx recalculates and checks the workbook before handing it back.

Where does the data come from?

From the live web, researched during the job, or from files you upload. Every researched figure carries a source link in a column or on a sources tab.

Does it work with Google Sheets?

Yes. Rixx delivers a standard .xlsx file. Import it into Google Sheets, or open it in Excel or Numbers. You can also ask for a CSV copy of any table.

Can it build a list of companies?

Yes. Rixx researches a focused list from public information, such as 30 companies that match your criteria, with a source for each row. For larger lists it can split the research across parallel agents.

Can it add charts?

Yes. Rixx adds native Excel charts built from the cells in the sheet, so they update when the data changes. It can also return PNG copies for slides.

Is it free to try?

Yes. Every plan, including Free, gets every feature. Free includes 50 credits a day plus 500 a month. A quick cited answer uses a few credits; a job that researches and builds a workbook uses more. You only pay for what a job uses. See pricing.
