Sheety.ai vs Columns AI (formerly Columns)

Describe a spreadsheet problem in plain words and Sheety.ai returns a formula ready to copy into Excel or Google Sheets. You pick the platform, generate the result, and paste it into your workbook. The homepage centers on one input box with generate, copy, reset, and save actions.

Unlike broader spreadsheet copilots that edit whole workbooks, Sheety.ai returns only the formula string for you to paste. That narrow focus keeps the workflow quick for one-off lookups and avoids tying you to a single platform thanks to the Excel and Google Sheets toggle.

Anonymous visitors can run 5 formula generations without signing up. A free account removes that limit, lets you save formulas to your profile, and syncs them for access from anywhere. The homepage also lists Latest Formulas other users have shared.

Sheety.ai is developed and hosted in Switzerland, and the homepage states that the team cares about user privacy. Saved formulas stay tied to registered accounts, and the site highlights Swiss hosting as part of its privacy positioning.

Columns AI takes messy files and live data sources through ingestion, automation, and chart publishing without making you stitch together separate tools. Drive ingests CSV, Excel, PDF, and images with OCR, Flow connects warehouses and apps with plain-language transformations, and Graph publishes brand-matched visuals you can embed or export.

Most BI tools assume your data is already clean and your team knows SQL. Columns splits the problem into three steps on purpose: structure files in Drive, automate sync and transforms in Flow, then ship client-ready charts from Graph without opening a separate design tool. You pay per row processed, and the Basic plan has no monthly base fee.

The site lists 12,000+ users across business operators, consultants, marketing and RevOps teams, analysts, and freelancers. Founder Shawn Cao previously built data infrastructure at Microsoft, Facebook, and Pinterest.
