Use AI to generate formulas, categorize items, format cells, and perform repetitive tasks in Google Sheets.
The Numerous.ai Google Sheets plugin lets you use AI to perform repetitive tasks and use spreadsheets like a power user. Here’s how:
PROMPT CHATGPT IN YOUR SHEETS
Use the =AI() function directly in your spreadsheet similar to formulas like =SUM() and =AVERAGE() to directly feed prompts to ChatGPT.
- Want to summarize a customer support message? =AI(“Here’s a message from a customer:”, A2, “summarize it in 1-2 bulletpoints”)
- Need to figure out what state a phone number is from? =AI(“What state is the phone number”, A2, “from?”)
And then you can just drag the function down and automatically do that for a hundred more cells.
HAVE THE AI DO YOUR TIME-CONSUMING TASKS BY SHOWING IT A FEW EXAMPLES
If you need to do mind-numbing busywork like:
- Format hundreds of cells by hand
- Categorize a thousand items
- Do sentiment analysis on lots of messages
You can teach the AI by providing it with 4 or 5 good examples, and using the “Infer” function to complete it for all the other cells.
WRITE TEXT USING AI
- =WRITE("a tagline for the brand",A3,"mentioning its top features such as",B3)
- =WRITE(“a message to”, A2, “thanking them for”, B2)
You can have AI write text for you, just by telling it what you want.
GENERATE FORMULAS USING PLAIN ENGLISH
Just write out what you want and Numerous.ai will generate the formula to do it. This works for even the most complex formulas: from SUM, COUNTIF, AVERAGE, to VLOOKUP, QUERY, REGEX, and more.
EXPLAIN COMPLEX FORMULAS
If you’ve received a spreadsheet from a colleague and have no idea what the formulas do, you can use the “Explain formula” function, and it will tell you what the formula does in plain English.
