Product Updates

This is one of the biggest updates we've ever shipped. SAI agents can now process your data row by row automatically. You can connect external tools via MCP servers. There's a full undo system with automatic backups. The chat interface has been completely redesigned. Sheet search lets the AI find anything in your spreadsheet. And there are dozens of bug fixes and improvements across the board.

SAI Agents — AI That Processes Your Data Row by Row

SheetXAI's AI assistant can now deploy SAI agents to process data across multiple rows automatically. Ask it to categorize, generate content, create images, or transform data row by row — the AI writes the prompt template and SAI agents handle each row independently.

• Chaining: One agent's output feeds the next (e.g., generate title -> write description -> create product image)
• All output types: Text, images, video, audio, URL retrieval, and web scraping
• allRows mode: Keeps agents alive — when you add new rows, they're processed automatically
• Pre-flight checks: Before deploying agents, SheetXAI checks that your settings are configured correctly (e.g., Image or Video tabs with a provider and API key). If something's missing, the AI tells you exactly what to set up
• Works on Excel too — text and web search output types are supported. Image, video, and audio agents remain Google Sheets-only for now

MCP Server Integrations — Connect Your Own Tools

You can now connect MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers to SheetXAI. Go to Settings -> MCP Servers, add your server URL and optional API key, and the AI automatically discovers and uses the tools your server provides. Learn more about MCP servers.

• OAuth 2.1 support: Servers that require OAuth (CRMs, project management tools, etc.) are fully supported. SheetXAI handles the entire auth flow for you
• Tool visibility & toggles: See all tools a server provides and enable/disable individual ones
• Popular Connectors: One-click setup for Notion, Stripe, HubSpot, Supabase, Atlassian (Jira/Confluence), Linear, GitHub, Asana, Zapier, Exa Search, and GoHighLevel
• Smart data handling: When a tool returns hundreds of records, the AI summarizes the structure and asks which columns you want — then writes the full data directly to your sheet
• Bulk writes: Push spreadsheet data to an MCP tool in bulk (e.g., "insert all these contacts into my CRM") with filtering, batching, and rate limiting
• Disable/enable servers: Temporarily turn off servers you don't need without losing your config — reduces per-message credit usage
• Custom headers: Add extra headers some servers need (e.g., X-Location-Id, X-Workspace)
• Re-authenticate: Re-trigger OAuth without removing and re-adding a server
• Works on Excel — MCP servers can be configured and used in the Excel add-in too
• Credits only charged on success — failed MCP tool calls no longer cost credits

Undo / Restore from Backup

SheetXAI now automatically saves a full backup of your spreadsheet before running AI-generated code. If something goes wrong, click the Undo button to restore your spreadsheet to exactly how it was before.

• Google Sheets: Restores in-place — you stay in the same file and everything is reverted seamlessly
• Excel: Opens your backed-up version as a new workbook in a separate window so you can compare
• Undo also reverts the conversation — removes both the AI response and your original message, and places your text back in the input box
• Preserves your active sheet — you stay on the same sheet you were viewing
• Faster backups on Google Sheets — backup time cut from ~14 seconds to a few seconds using the REST API
• Clearing conversation history now removes all backup files from Google Drive

Redesigned Chat Interface

The chat has been completely refreshed for a cleaner, more modern look:

• User messages now display as full-width blue cards instead of right-aligned bubbles
• AI responses render directly on white — no more gray background
• Action buttons (Undo, Retry, Expand, Bookmark, Edit) are hidden by default and reveal on hover
• Code execution indicator is now a compact bar with wave animation while running and a checkmark when complete
• Copy button on user messages to quickly copy your prompt text
• Contextual tips appear during code execution to help you discover features
• Animated loading states with wave bars and rotating status text ("Reading your sheet...", "Analyzing cells...")
• Bouncing dots at the end of AI text during streaming so you can see it's still generating
• Prompt suggestion chips on new chats — click "Analyze my data", "Create a formula", etc. to start instantly
• Accurate execution labels — the bar now says "Calling MCP", "Reading sheet data", "Calling sub-agents", etc. instead of always "Executing code"
• Real progress stages — the loading pill reflects actual events instead of random messages

Sheet Search — Find Values Across Your Entire Spreadsheet

The AI can now search for specific values, keywords, or labels across your entire spreadsheet without you telling it where to look. Ask "find all cells containing 'Overdue'" and the AI locates them instantly with exact cell references.

• Whole-word matching by default — searching for "master" won't match "webmaster"
• Accent-insensitive — "resume" finds "résumé", "cafe" matches "café"
• Substring mode available when needed (e.g., searching for "@gmail.com" inside email addresses)
• Works on Google Sheets and Excel

Image Edit & Image to Video Settings

You can now configure separate providers and models for image editing and image-to-video generation in Settings:

• Image Edit tab — supported providers: OpenAI, Fal AI, Straico, Gemini, Runware, Ideogram
• Image to Video tab — supported providers: Fal AI, Straico
• If these tabs aren't configured, the system falls back to your regular Image Gen / Video Gen settings
• Edit and image-to-video models no longer clutter the Image Gen and Video Gen dropdowns — they're in their dedicated tabs where they belong

Task-Aware Auto Tiers & Tab-Aware Credit Pricing

Auto Basic and Auto Max now pick different models depending on the task — content generation, URL retrieval, and analysis each use models optimized for that specific type. Credit costs also vary by task, reflecting the lighter models used for simpler operations. Auto tiers are now available on the Content, URL, and Analysis tabs (previously only on Default).

Force Trigger SAI Scan

Sometimes SAI formulas or SAI commands wouldn't trigger automatically. A new "Force Trigger SAI Scan" button lets you manually kick off a scan of the active sheet on demand — SAI formulas, custom commands, and arrays are re-evaluated immediately.

Expand Button Now Works

The Expand button on AI responses now opens a full-page view with Table of Contents navigation and Copy to Clipboard. Works on both Google Sheets and Excel.

Bug Fixes

• Shared API keys now work more reliably
• Multi-column commands no longer fire dependent columns when a previous column is still pending or failed
• Duplicate bookmarks are now prevented when using the manual "Add bookmark" form
• Active sheet formulas now process first when you open SheetXAI
• Array command failures now stop cleanly and tell you exactly what to do
• Async generation errors (fal.ai, Freepik, JoggAI) now write the error directly to the cell instead of leaving it stuck
• Custom commands and dynamic arrays no longer get stuck on "Processing..."
• "Running low on credits" warning no longer flashes for Lifetime users
• API keys with special characters (typographic dashes from Notion, Apple Notes, etc.) no longer cause connection errors
• AI no longer hangs on empty responses
• Image-to-image editing via SAI formulas now works correctly
• Excel auto-confirm toggle now persists across sessions
• Bookmarks no longer disappear on app reload
• Large spreadsheet support — SAI formulas, dynamic arrays, and custom commands now work reliably on large spreadsheets
• Better error messages for failed AI image/video generation — shows actual reasons instead of generic error codes
• Straico image-to-video now works correctly (was listed as supported but would fail)
• Password reset emails no longer fail with "Failed to send reset link"

This update introduces automatic model selection so you never have to pick a model again, shared API keys so your whole team can use one key, smart tooltips that guide you to the right model, a thumbs-down button to report issues and get credits back, and a bunch of reliability improvements and bug fixes.

Auto Model Selection

You no longer have to pick a specific AI model. Just select Auto Basic or Auto Max from the model dropdown and SheetXAI automatically routes your request to the best available model. If a model has issues, we swap it out behind the scenes — you always get the best option without changing anything.

We keep pricing consistent within each tier — all the models in Auto Basic cost roughly the same, and all the models in Auto Max cost roughly the same. The most expensive model you'd hit in Auto Basic is Claude Haiku, which keeps things very affordable. Auto Max routes to premium models for more complex tasks, with pricing kept reasonable across the pool.

Shared API Keys for Teams

LTD managers can now set API keys (OpenAI, Gemini, OpenRouter, etc.) from their account dashboard, and those keys are automatically distributed to every seat member. Your team doesn't need to set up their own keys — they just use yours. For security, members never see the actual key value — the settings page shows shared_by_manager — do not edit so it's clear the key is pre-configured. Members can override with their own key at any time; removing their override restores the manager's shared key.

Smart Model Suggestions

We're rolling out smart nudge tooltips — when you send a message about dashboards, for example, SheetXAI shows a quick tip near the model selector suggesting the best model for that task (e.g., "Dashboards tend to work best with Claude Sonnet or Codex models"). Attach an image or PDF? It'll suggest Gemini Flash. These tips appear once per session and stay out of your way. Still being refined, but already incredibly helpful.

Thumbs-Down Feedback — Get Rewarded for Reporting Issues

Every AI response now has a thumbs-down button. Click it, describe what went wrong, and optionally share your conversation or spreadsheet so we can investigate. If the AI made a mistake that cost you credits, we'll refund them. You're literally rewarded for reporting bugs. Note: credit refunds are only available for users on credit-based plans — if you're not on a credit plan, we can still investigate and fix the issue, but there are no credits to refund.

AI Handles Multi-Step Requests One at a Time

When you ask SheetXAI to do several things at once (e.g., "format the headers, add a summary row, and create a chart"), the AI now executes each step individually and verifies it before moving on. After each step, it tells you what's left. Much more reliable than trying everything at once.

Google Sheets AI — Smarter Sheet Handling

The AI no longer fails when an output sheet already exists. If you re-run a task and the sheet name is taken, it clears and reuses it instead of erroring out. No more duplicate sheets or cryptic failures.

"How to Use SAI" in the Menu

A new "How to use SAI" option now appears in the SheetXAI menu under Support. One click opens the complete SAI commands guide.

Chrome Extension — 90% Ready

The SheetXAI Chrome extension is almost here. It overlays directly on Google Sheets — no Apps Script add-on required. Sign in with Google, and the full AI assistant is right there in your browser. Not quite ready for prime time, but very close.

Restored Conversations Now Recommend New Chats

When a previous conversation is detected on load, SheetXAI now clearly recommends starting a new chat — restored chats can cause the AI to lose context. "New chat" is now the primary action.

No More Infinite Loops

We've eliminated the "loop of death" — that issue where the AI would get stuck in a cycle of loading, loading, loading with no response. Connections now stay alive properly even during long operations.

Bug Fixes

• SAI cells no longer get stuck on "Processing..." when credits run out — you now see a clear message explaining what happened
• "Sign in with Google" in Excel now works for brand-new users — previously it would silently fail if you hadn't signed up with email first
• Special commands like ///whatsmyemail/// work again — these stopped returning responses after a previous upgrade
• !EXASCRAPE no longer falsely reports "Please set up EXA" when EXA is already configured
• Custom commands no longer crash with a cryptic error when Content tab settings aren't fully configured — you now see a clear error message
• Stop button now clears the AI's partial response — previously, clicking Stop left the incomplete message visible

This is a big one. We've completely rebuilt the system under the hood — everything is faster, more reliable, and ready to handle a lot more. We also added three new integrations, a new AI provider with 30+ models, and a game-changing way to run SAI commands and custom commands.

SAI Commands Now Run in the Background

This changes everything. SheetXAI now processes your SAI commands, custom commands, and integrations in the background — you don't even need to keep SheetXAI open.

• No more keeping SheetXAI open. After opening SheetXAI in a spreadsheet, you don't need to keep it open to run your custom commands and SAI commands. Just don't edit the cell while it's processing.
• Integrations run in the background. When you run integrations like Apify, you don't need to wait around. Close SheetXAI, go do your thing — when it's done, your sheet is automatically created and populated. We'll even email you when it's complete.
• No more SAI rerunning errors. You're no longer limited to 30 seconds. Our system performs the request and writes to the sheet. The output is automatically converted to static text — no more needing to "make ranges static."
• Run SAI prompts from your phone. Since everything runs in the background, you can type your SAI prompts from your phone and it just works.

System Overhaul — Faster, Stronger, More Secure

We've done a full overhaul of our backend systems. Here's what that means for you:

• You may be asked to sign in again. We're sorry about that — we had to redo parts of our security infrastructure to make sure everything is airtight. It's a one-time thing.
• The system is significantly faster. Operations that used to lag should feel noticeably snappier.
• Better reliability across the board. The system can handle more load, recover from issues faster, and perform more consistently — especially during heavy workloads.

New Integration: Ghost (Blog Publishing)

You can now publish blog posts and pages directly from your spreadsheet using Ghost.

• Create posts and pages with title, content, tags, featured images, and SEO metadata
• Bulk create from multiple rows — each row becomes a post
• Update existing posts by Post ID
• Import posts from Ghost into a new sheet (filter by status or tags)
• Template generator creates a ready-to-fill sheet with the right columns
• Multi-site support — connect multiple Ghost blogs

Set it up in Settings → Ghost with your Ghost URL and Admin API key.

New Integration: Late (Social Media Scheduling)

Post to 13+ social media platforms — Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and more — all from one place.

• Create or schedule posts with media, timezone support, and platform selection
• Bulk create or schedule from spreadsheet rows with smart defaults
• Import all your posts from Late into a sheet (content, platforms, status, schedule, etc.)
• View connected accounts and profiles across platforms

Set it up in Settings → Social Media with your Late API key.

WooCommerce — Now with Import & Update

WooCommerce was previously create-only. Now you can do the full loop:

• Import products into your sheet with filters for status, category, SKU, and type
• Update existing products — name, description, prices, stock, images, categories, and more
• Faster performance — we switched to direct API calls instead of going through a proxy
• Batch operations with per-row error reporting
• Multi-store support

LLM Gateway — 30+ AI Models, One API Key

Access 30+ AI models from all the major providers through a single API key:

• OpenAI (GPT-4o, GPT-5, o3)
• Anthropic (Claude Opus, Sonnet, Haiku 4.x)
• Google (Gemini 2.5, 3.x)
• Meta Llama, Mistral, DeepSeek, xAI Grok, Perplexity, and more

One key, all the models. Available on the LTD plan. Set it up in Settings → Chatbot.

Straico Upgraded to v2

Straico now uses the latest v2 API. This means better compatibility and — importantly — custom commands now support PDF uploads directly. PDFs are sent inline instead of requiring a separate upload step.

Performance & Reliability Improvements

• AI responses now stream after code runs — you see results appear in real-time instead of waiting for the full response
• Large code responses no longer get lost — we fixed an issue where big AI-generated code blocks could silently fail to execute
• Timeout detection — if the AI stalls for 30 seconds, it automatically stops with a clear error instead of spinning forever
• Rotating progress messages — during long operations, the loading indicator now cycles through different messages so you know it's still working

Bug Fixes

• Bookmarks now save reliably — they were silently failing before, that's fixed
• Excel settings spinner fixed — the loading spinner on the Settings button in Excel now stops properly

Settings Page Reorganized

The settings sidebar is now organized into clear categories — AI, Media, Email & Leads, Publishing, Commerce, Social, and Other — so you can find what you need faster instead of scrolling through one long list.

This update adds a Stop button to protect your credits, introduces AppScripts and VBA mode for generated code, makes Excel faster (including a model that can make Excel up to 10x faster), improves error messages and bookmarks, and more.

Pivot Tables Fixed

Pivot tables were acting up – we've fixed that so they behave correctly again.

Stop Button – Keep Your Credits When the AI Runs Long

We added a Stop button so your credits and spend don't disappear when the AI goes on a long run. You can hit Stop before it does its next action and stay in control. No more watching it burn through credits when you already have what you need.

Excel: Faster Overall + Up to 10x Faster with New Model

Excel is a tiny bit faster in general. We also introduced a new model that can make Excel up to 10x faster when you're using it – you should notice the difference on heavier workbooks.

Better Bookmarks on Excel and Sheets

Bookmarks are improved on both Excel and Google Sheets – easier to use and more reliable so you can jump back to what you care about.

Error Messages That Actually Help

When something fails, the error message now tells you what went wrong so you can fix it instead of guessing. Better error handling and more transparency.

!ARRAY Is Now Case Insensitive

!ARRAY now works no matter how you capitalize it – it wasn't case insensitive before, so this should remove a bunch of "why didn't that work?" moments.

AppScripts & VBA Mode – The Big One

You can now have the AI generate App Scripts and VBA for you.

How it works: Click the AI star icon in the chat, change the mode to AppScripts or VBA, and describe what you need – the AI will write the script. With AppScripts you can set up automations and more in Google Sheets; with VBA you get code you can use in Excel. It's still in development and will keep getting better. Because code blocks now have a copy button, you can copy the generated script in one click and drop it into Sheets or Excel.

Code Blocks Have a Copy Button

Any code the AI returns – including AppScripts and VBA – now has a copy button so you can grab it and use it without copy-paste hassle.

Auto Mode Persists

If you turn Auto mode off, it stays off until you turn it back on. No more resetting every time.

Settings Page Revamp

We completely revamped the settings page – cleaner layout and easier to find what you need.

This update introduces several powerful features and improvements to make SheetXAI more intelligent, cost-effective, and user-friendly.

SheetXAI can now handle messy, unstructured data perfectly. The AI understands data blocks and their relationships, allowing you to:

• Work with non-standard data layouts
• Identify and name data block ranges automatically
• Clean and organize unstructured data more effectively
• Ask questions like "how many data blocks are there?" and get accurate answers

Auto-Detect Spreadsheet Locale

SAI transformations now automatically detect your spreadsheet's locale and use the correct formula separator:

• US spreadsheets: Automatically uses commas (e.g., =SUM(A1,B2))
• EU spreadsheets: Automatically uses semicolons (e.g., =SUM(A1;B2))
• No manual switching required - SheetXAI detects and adapts automatically

Bookmarks Redesign

Bookmarks have been completely redefined with a fresh, attractive interface:

• Save frequently used prompts with one click

• Expand Button: Full-screen chat mode.
• Hover Help: Mini guides for every button.
• Better Error Handling: Improved SAI formula activation and OpenAI fixes.

A new feature for SAI users eliminates the need to manually type each header and cell reference when writing SAI formulas.

What's New: Instead of typing individual header and cell references, users can now reference a range of headers using a simplified pattern.

Before (old way): sai analyze this lead data, this is the name: @A2, the company: @B2, the industry: @C2, the revenue: @D2, the size: @E2...

Now (new way): sai analyze this lead data #headersA:J and give recommendations

Supported Formats (case-insensitive):

• #headersA:J - Column range
• {headersA:J} - Brace format
• {{headersA:J}} - Double brace format
• @headersA:J - At symbol format

Key Benefits:

• No more manual header typing - SAI automatically includes all column headers.
• No more repetitive cell references - One simple pattern replaces multiple @A2, @B2, @C2... references.
• Automatic context - Headers are intelligently included in your prompt.
• Flexible syntax - Choose the format that feels most natural.
• Case insensitive - Works with uppercase or lowercase letters.

Example Use Cases:

• sai score this company for partnership potential using #headersA:J
• sai generate a cold outreach email based on {headersA:J}
• sai analyze the following data and suggest improvements: {{headersA:J}}
• sai summarize this lead using @headersA:J and give a recommendation

The system will automatically extract headers from row 1 and include them in your SAI prompt.

The AutoConfirm feature in SheetXAI has been updated to be truly automatic. When enabled, the AI now executes commands directly without requiring confirmation, unless absolutely necessary.

Key Improvements:

• Direct execution - Commands happen instantly.
• Smarter decisions - Confirmation is only requested when critical.
• Streamlined workflow - Routine tasks are completed without interruptions.

Important Note: Users should ensure prompts are clear and unambiguous, as the AI will act on them immediately.

Safety Net: Changes can be reverted using Ctrl+Z (Cmd+Z on Mac) or by checking Google Sheets version history.

How to Create Videos: Use the !VIDEO prefix in an SAI formula.

Basic Format: sai !VIDEO [your animation request] #[cell with image URL]

Examples:

• sai !VIDEO animate this image #B2
• sai !VIDEO make this image move smoothly #A1
• sai !VIDEO add gentle swaying motion to this image #C5
• sai !VIDEO bring this scene to life with realistic movement #D3

How It Works Behind the Scenes: When typing sai !VIDEO animate this image #B2, SheetXAI converts it to =SAI(!VIDEO animate this image , B2). The system then reads the image, processes the animation request, uses FAL AI to generate the video, and returns the video file to the spreadsheet.

Pro Tips for Best Results:

• Image Requirements: Use high-quality, well-lit, and clear images (optimal resolution: 512x512 or higher).
• Animation Prompts: Be specific and descriptive (e.g., "gentle," "smooth," "realistic"). Mention direction (e.g., "left to right," "upward motion," "rotating").

Use Cases:

• Marketing & Social Media: Animate product images for social posts, create engaging thumbnails, bring static ads to life.
• Presentations & Reports: Add dynamic elements to business presentations, create animated charts and graphs, make data visualization more engaging.
• Creative Projects: Animate artwork and illustrations, create short video content from photos, experiment with different animation styles.

Getting Started:

1. Set up FAL AI model in SheetXAI Video settings.
2. Put your image URL in any cell (e.g., B2).
3. Type your video command: sai !VIDEO animate this image #B2.
4. Wait for conversion (chat panel must be open).
5. Watch your video generate automatically.

SAI Formula Shortcuts

Write AI formulas in natural language, and SheetXAI will automatically convert them to proper SAI formulas.

How It Works: Type your AI request with cell references. SheetXAI automatically converts it every 5 seconds when the chat panel is open.

Supported Patterns:

• @SAI Pattern: @SAI translate this @A1, @SAI analyze @A1:B2 and ..., @SAI compare @A and ...
• #SAI Pattern: #SAI summarize ..., #SAI analyze #A1:B2 and ..., #SAI test #A1:B2
• Plain SAI Pattern: sai translate this @A1, SAI summarize ..., Sai analyze @A1:B2 and ...

Cell Reference Options:

• @ References: @A1 (Specific cell), @A (Current row in column A), @A1 (Cell range)
• # References: #A1 (Specific cell), #A (Current row in column A), #A1 (Cell range)
• {{}} References: {{B5}} (Current row in column B), {{B}} (Entire column B)

Case Insensitivity: SAI patterns and cell references work in any case (e.g., @SAI, @sai, @A1, @a1).

Real Examples:

• @sai translate this @a1 converts to =SAI(translate this , A1)
• #sai analyze @a1 and {{c5}} converts to =SAI(analyze , A1, and , C5)

Automatic Conversion Details:

• Runs every 5 seconds in the background.
• Converts automatically to proper SAI formulas.
• Preserves spacing and text.
• Only touches cells with SAI patterns.
• Only works when the SheetXAI chat panel is open.

Get Started:

1. Open the SheetXAI chat panel.
2. Type any SAI pattern in a cell.
3. Wait up to 5 seconds for automatic conversion.
4. Watch it transform into a proper SAI formula.
5. Your AI request runs automatically!

Other New Features

• Enhanced Formula Bar: Brand new interface for creating formulas with a visual formula builder and easier parameter entry.
• Static Formula Option: New option to 'Make All Formulas Static' in one click, preserving formula outputs while removing the formulas themselves.
• Optimized Token Usage: Significantly reduced token size in the chatbot, leading to lower costs and faster response times.
• FAL Media Generation: Generate videos directly from images with the !VIDEO command and an image link. Create audio from text inputs.

A new feature allows users to generate tables directly in their spreadsheet using a simple formula.

Formula: =SAI(!TABLE your request here)

Examples of use:

• Create a list of all African countries
• Generate a 3-column table showing countries, their currencies, and current presidents
• Build any table where AI has the data you need!

Tips for use:

• Place the formula in the first row for best results (it always includes a header)
• Keep the chat panel open when using this feature
• You can still use the chat to request data for specific columns

Resolved issues with email verification in SheetXAI.

Learn how to use it: https://help.sheetxai.com/sales/using-email-verification-in-sheetxai

SheetXAI now supports email verification directly within Google Sheets using MillionVerifier and Reoon.

How to Use:

1. Ensure your MillionVerifier or Reoon API key is entered in the settings.
2. Request email verification in your sheet with the chosen provider.
3. Select if you wish to receive email notifications upon completion.

Note: If an error occurs during saving, verify your API key and attempt to save again (up to 3 times).

During Processing: Progress updates are not shown within the sheet. Document status can be checked on the Reoon or MillionVerifier website. An email notification will be sent to your specified address upon completion. Processing time ranges from 5-20 minutes, depending on the number of emails.

SheetXAI now supports Image to Image functionality.

To use this feature, include the image URL in your request.

Technical Details:

• Supports the latest GPT image model.

The SheetXAI image generation feature has been reinstated.

To use it, start your SheetXAI formulas with IMAGEGEN.

Example: =SAI(IMAGEGEN a man smiling with a coffee in hand)

Setup: Ensure you have chosen an image AI in the settings page.

Two new features have been rolled out:

• AutoMakeStatic

  • Automatically converts SAI formulas to text. The first row remains as a formula, while all other rows auto-convert to text every minute.
  • This feature works in the background once the app is opened.
  • Expected to result in faster sheets with thousands of rows.
  • Coming soon for Excel users.

• Right-Click Guides

  • Provides help for features via a right-click action.
  • Available for formula builder, add context, auto confirm, and more.
  • Each guide links directly to detailed documentation.
  • Aids new users in learning features.

Users can now send images to the chatbot with Straico on SheetXAI Google Sheets.

Note: Images cannot be used in SAI formulas with Straico. However, if using OpenAI, OpenRouter, or Claude, images can be sent in either the chatbot or formulas.

SheetXAI is now available on Excel.

Important considerations for Excel users:

• Excel only has version history (the ability to undo) when autosave is enabled. Users should either turn on Autosave or keep a copy of any spreadsheet used.

To use SheetXAI as an LTD user:

• Sign up with any of the assigned emails. (A sign-up screen is now present).

Performance Improvements

• Chat accuracy significantly improved and cost reduced by up to 60%.
• AI can now grab content from cells when necessary (beta).

Technical Changes

• Complete system change implemented.

Upcoming Features

• Foundation strengthened to facilitate adding new features quickly, such as lead generation, slides, and documents.

Development Roadmap

• OpenAI's new models added to Openrouter and OpenAI.

New Features & Improvements:

• Image Analysis Added: Works with image URLs (must end with image suffixes like Jpeg, Jpg, Png, gif etc).
• In-app Support Chat: Messages persist for ongoing conversations + AI Chatbot.
• Free OpenRouter Models: Now available.
• Auto-monitor Feature: Automatically resets failed Sai formulas every minute. No need to press the monitor SAI formulas anymore.

• Specific Error Messages: Replaces generic ones.

Changes:

• Bulk Generator Removed (star icon): Replacing with SAI.
• Migrating to Faster Database: For quicker startup times.
• Switching to a New Affiliate Platform: Current affiliates will get an email.

Other:

• Excel version submitted to Microsoft - now waiting for approval. Excel version should have fewer timeout issues compared to Sheets.

SheetXAI can now extract data from PDFs.

This feature is particularly beneficial for Straico users, as Straico supports PDFs.

Disclaimers:

1. PDFs should be less than 20MB.
2. PDFs are currently only accepted by Straico and OpenAI.
3. Response time might be 5-10 seconds slower due to two API calls: one for PDF upload and one for AI processing of the PDF content.
