Quadratic

AI-native spreadsheet that combines formulas with Python, SQL, and JavaScript cells for code-based data analysis.

Visit Quadratic Alternatives

Quadratic is an AI-native spreadsheet that mixes traditional formulas with Python, SQL, and JavaScript cells, letting analysts write code directly into a grid instead of switching to a separate notebook. Live connections to Postgres, MySQL, Snowflake, BigQuery, and other databases pull data straight into a sheet, and the AI assistant can generate formulas, code, or charts from a plain-English request while leaving the underlying logic visible and editable. Sheets support multiplayer editing and can hold far more rows than a conventional spreadsheet, which suits larger analytical datasets. Quadratic runs as a hosted cloud app, with an Enterprise plan that adds self-hosting, SSO, and custom AI usage limits. The codebase is source-available on GitHub under the Quadratic Source Available License rather than a traditional open-source license.
