The problem it solves

Your sales data sits in a spreadsheet, but nobody has time to dig through it and figure out what it actually means. Trends and warning signs go unnoticed until they turn into bigger problems.

Who it fits

Small business owners or sales managers who track performance in a spreadsheet but rarely have time to analyze it.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the automation opens your sales spreadsheet
  2. AI reviews the data for trends, standout results, and problem areas
  3. It writes a plain-English summary with insights and suggestions
  4. You receive the report ready to read, without touching a formula
What you get

Trends you'd otherwise miss in the numbers

You get a plain-English breakdown of your sales trends and where to improve, without opening a single formula.

What you get

A written summary report highlighting sales trends and suggested improvements.

What you need

A Google account and an OpenAI API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
