The problem it solves

You need database records in spreadsheet form for reporting or sharing, so someone has to manually query the database and rebuild the file by hand. That's slow and easy to get wrong when the data set is large.

Who it fits

Operations or analytics staff who need database data in spreadsheet form for reports or sharing.

How it works

  1. The system connects to your Postgres database
  2. It pulls the data you specify
  3. The data is converted into Excel format
  4. The finished spreadsheet is saved for you to use
What you get

Database numbers turned into a spreadsheet instantly

Your Postgres data gets pulled and saved as a ready-to-use Excel spreadsheet whenever you need it.

What you get

An Excel spreadsheet containing your database records.

What you need

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.
