About
Flowshot is a powerful Google Sheets AI add-on designed to supercharge spreadsheet workflows for teams and individuals of all technical levels. It brings multiple AI capabilities directly into Google Sheets through a convenient sidebar and a set of custom AI formulas, eliminating the need for complex integrations or coding knowledge. With the =COMPLETE formula, users can autocomplete entire ranges of cells by providing a few examples — ideal for tasks like sentiment analysis, classification, or data tagging at scale. The =AI formula allows users to automate any task or ask questions directly within a cell, making it easy to generate sales copy, summarize text, or transform data. The formula generation feature lets users describe what they want in plain English and instantly receive the correct Google Sheets formula, removing the need to memorize complex syntax. Flowshot also supports AI image generation within sheets, allowing users to create detailed images from text prompts without leaving their spreadsheet. All formulas work seamlessly with native Google Sheets capabilities such as absolute references, named ranges, and drag-to-fill. Flowshot is ideal for marketers, data analysts, content creators, and business teams looking to automate repetitive spreadsheet tasks, enrich datasets with AI, or generate content at scale. It offers a generous free plan and an enterprise tier for larger organizations.
