Spreadsheet Engine

Run spreadsheet calculations anywhere

Our engine ensures full compatibility with Excel and Google Sheets. Run your models on-device or in your own infrastructure using our JavaScript libraries, giving you complete control and flexibility for integrating spreadsheet logic into your applications. Perfect for agentic workflows and other AI products.

Documentation

Work with confidence

Recalculations without permanent writes

Once you load your spreadsheet into the engine, the original file is kept separate from ongoing calculations. This lets you adjust inputs and test various outcomes, knowing your original data is preserved. Integrate the data and logic of existing spreadsheets into your applications, letting business users maintain them while you focus on building the application.

Built for AI

Optimized for AI integrations

Large language models excel at text but struggle with calculations. GRID's JavaScript libraries enable you to integrate complex spreadsheet models into AI and LLM projects, running calculations on-device or in your infrastructure. This enables reliable, dynamic responses that can even be accessed using natural language. Our engine is also ideal for spreadsheet generation.

How compatible are the calculations to Excel and Google Sheets?

GRID's spreadsheet engine is the most sophisticated such engine outside Microsoft and Google and even rivals them on several fronts. This blog post details the compatibility and offers comparison to other engines in the market.
The engine has been powering our Calculator Studio product since 2021, running tens of thousands of models built in traditional spreadsheet software, many of them very complex and often requiring "animation speed" calculations.

What are the primary use cases for the GRID spreadsheet engine?

GRID's spreadsheet engine enables seamless integration of complex spreadsheet calculations into various applications. Run calculations on-device or in your own infrastructure for use cases like financial modeling, pricing engines, and business logic. The engine is ideal for AI applications, spreadsheet generation, and agentic workflows. It's perfect for building custom tools where you need Excel/Google Sheets compatibility without rebuilding existing calculation logic.

How can I verify the calculations from GRID?

GRID ensures precise and dependable calculations, and we've made it possible to ask GPTs to explain their calculations. To build trust and transparency, you can enable GRID-powered GPTs to explain their calculations directly. This feature, designed for debugging and internal use, provides step-by-step details of how results are derived. By default, this capability is off, offering control over whether to display calculations, especially for external users.

Can I load Google Sheets files into the GRID engine?

Yes. You can load spreadsheets from Google Sheets into the GRID engine. The engine runs locally in your application, giving you full control over when and how calculations are performed. Our engine is compatible with both Excel and Google Sheets formats.

Can I use GRID's JavaScript libraries with AI applications?

Yes! GRID's JavaScript libraries are perfect for integrating spreadsheet calculations into AI applications and LLMs. Run calculations on-device or in your infrastructure, giving your AI applications access to reliable, complex calculations for use cases across finance, sales, operations, and more.
