The problem it solves

Your team still works in spreadsheets, but you also need that data reliably stored in a database for reporting or other systems. Keeping both in sync by hand means double data entry and mistakes.

Who it fits

Businesses moving from spreadsheet-based operations toward a database or custom software, without disrupting daily work.

How it works

  1. The sync runs on a schedule, on demand, or as part of another process
  2. It reads the latest rows from your Excel or Google Sheets file
  3. Data formats are cleaned up so they match the database
  4. Records are inserted or updated in the database without creating duplicates
What you get

Records that always match between spreadsheet and database

Your spreadsheet and database stay in sync automatically, so every team member sees the same accurate numbers.

What you get

A database that mirrors your spreadsheet, kept current without manual re-entry.

What you need

A Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets account and a Postgres database.

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.
