AI formulas and document support for Excel

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building an Excel add-in that adds AI-powered functions directly inside spreadsheets. Users upload files like PDFs into cells, then use formulas such as =GEN and =EXTRACT to analyze and summarize document contents. It also includes a chat assistant embedded in Excel to help with building sheets and querying data without leaving the workbook.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in New York, NY and plan to base the company here after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose New York because it is where we both live and work, and where we have access to our initial B2B users. We want to stay close to our customers who are business professionals using Excel daily.
