AI assistant for Excel formulas, charts, insights.

Genspark for Excel is an AI assistant that lives inside Microsoft Excel, handling formulas, charts, data analysis, and even web research, all through plain English prompts.
I'm hunting this because the "AI in your workflow" promise usually means tab-switching. This one actually embeds in the tool millions of people already have open all day.
The problem is familiar: Excel is deeply capable but the learning curve is steep. Most users know maybe 10% of what it can do, and they spend hours on formulas they half-understand, charts they can't get right, and analysis they have to Google their way through.
Genspark sits inside the spreadsheet as a plugin and handles the syntax layer. You describe what you want, it writes and inserts the formula. You select a data range, tell it the story you want to tell, it builds the chart. You ask a question about your data, it answers in plain language.
A few things stand out: the formula explainer (paste any formula, get a step-by-step breakdown), and the web research-to-spreadsheet feature, where it searches the web and fills your cells automatically. That second one is genuinely different from anything I've seen in this category.
Best fit for business analysts, ops managers, finance teams, and frankly anyone who uses Excel daily but isn't a power user.
What's the one Excel task that takes you the longest right now? Are you able to get Genspark to cover?
