@jackinlearning96 @xwang146 @mengqi_jin Numbers lose their meaning fast when they get copied between files. Making the context travel with the number is a clever idea. Nice Launch.

Love the idea of updating content once and having related sections follow — how often do you still need a manual decision?

Can I reuse last quarter's logic and only swap in this period's data, instead of rebuilding from scratch?

 Does editing work the same for numbers and for longer text passages?

we do a monthly support report every month (ticket volume, response times, CSAT, plus a short write-up and a few slides for leadership). could I drop in a fresh CSV export from our helpdesk each month and have everything update, or would I have to rebuild it every time?

Congrats on the launch! I've lost count of the times the model said one number and slide 14 still said the old one, so I get why you built this.

For me the best part is that every number shows where it came from. That's also why exporting to PowerPoint feels like a step back. Once it's a .pptx, the numbers are dead again.

Are you thinking about letting people just share a live DeepCell link instead? The boss opens it, comments, and can click a number to see where it came from.

Looks very helpful for the monthly investor updates and more - does it incorporate your internal design systems?

Love seeing a productivity tool aimed at the "same change in every file" pain, not just another AI chat wrapper

Last time a number in the plan changed I had to fix the sheet and then hunt that same number in the writeup. If the model and the memo are one .deepcell file, does the sentence update or only the cell?

Congrats Mengqi, Jack and Amy on #1. The part about numbers carrying their own logic instead of cell refs caught my eye. When someone changes an assumption in the model, does the slide text that quotes that number update too, or does it flag the sentence for a human to reread?

Cool product. Congrats on launch. Wil def explore it soon to understand better about it.

Best wishes on launch 😄

Can I preview how exports will look in Word / PPT / Excel before downloading?

The cheat sheets are a really nice touch. Half the stress of a monthly report is being asked "where does this number come from?" in the meeting and not having the answer ready. Congrats on the launch, DeepCell team!

Converting back to native xlsx and pptx is what makes this workable for teams that live in Office. Does an edit made after export find its way back into the .deepcell file?

A number carrying its scenario and fact or forecast status is the part I like here. It makes the question “which version is this?” something the file could answer.

Congrats on the launch! Linking spreadsheets, docs, and slides in one file is a problem a lot of us feel every week.

Hope you enjoy our sitcom (launching video) !!

Hi all, this is Jack. As the product co-founder, I want to share some stories from the perspective of an ex deadline victim. I used to be the one suffering a lot from deadlines in the funny launching video without DeepCell.

During my four years in PwC, I always got exhausted by endless deadlines with ad-hoc requirements. For example, I was required to make a valuation model and draft investment memo (both in ppt/doc) within few hours to present on the partner meeting next day. So I always worked overtime and went back home at around 1 am.

That experience fuels my motivation when building DeepCell. Mengqi and Amy have similar experiences as well, so we came to the common mission of DeepCell：

Make everyone head home on time.

That's why our product really focus on features below to help users feel easier under deadline:

1. Starting from our existing work (such as last monthly report, others' model in reference), not from the scratch

2. A handy explanation (we call it "cheatsheet") to remind us of the sources and the thinking, also helping us to understand our deliverables in general.

3. One-click update for related content across deliverables and files, not necessary to update numbers or narrations one by one, or no need to worry about missing any update.

Hope everyone in Product Hunt can enjoy our funny launching video and share with anyone if you think our product can help them go home on time.

Would love to hear more feedbacks!
