Quadratic
Quadratic is an AI-enabled spreadsheet that combines spreadsheet formulas with Python, SQL, JavaScript, live data connections, and AI. Users can ask questions in plain English and inspect or edit the resulting formulas, code, and charts in spreadsheet cells. It imports CSV, Excel, Parquet, PDF, and Google Sheets files, and connects to services such as PostgreSQL, Snowflake, BigQuery, QuickBooks, Google Analytics, Mixpanel, Plaid, and Salesforce. Quadratic says a sheet can hold 100 million rows and supports multi-gigabyte CSV and Parquet imports. Its MCP server lets compatible AI tools read sheets, write cells and charts, and run Python, SQL, and formulas; its API can trigger AI runs and read or write cells. Quadratic says data is stored and calculations run on the user's computer by default. Desktop apps are available for macOS and Windows, and a mobile interface is described for phones. Personal is free with limits; Pro is $18 per user per month when billed annually and includes $20 in monthly AI credits. Self-hosting is offered for Business and Enterprise.
