Google Sheets is used daily by many small and medium-sized businesses. It’s utilized for various purposes such as sales management, inventory management, customer lists, and shift management. Enabling AI to directly operate these spreadsheets can significantly reduce daily “manual labor.”

What does it mean for AI to operate spreadsheets?
Typically, spreadsheet operations are performed manually by humans:

Entering data
Writing formulas
Creating charts
Copying to other sheets
Attaching to emails and sending

When AI can operate spreadsheets, all of these can be automated.

What is gog CLI?
At SPARX, we use a CLI tool called “gog” to enable AI to directly operate Google Sheets.
Examples of what it can do:

Read data from a specified range
Write new data
Create and delete sheets
Aggregate data and update report sheets
AI searches for and retrieves files from Google Drive

Not only can “AI view data and analyze it,” but it can also “directly write data.”

Actual Use Cases
Automatic Aggregation of Sales Data
AI automatically consolidates sales data entered by each store or representative into a summary sheet daily. Monthly and weekly summaries are also automated.
Automatic Update of Customer Lists
AI receives data from inquiry forms and automatically adds it to the customer management sheet. Duplicate checking is performed simultaneously.
Automatic Sending of Inventory Alerts
If inventory levels drop below a set value, AI detects it and notifies the person in charge of ordering via email. This eliminates missed spreadsheet checks.
Recording Competitive Research Results
AI researches the web and automatically records and organizes competitive information obtained into spreadsheets.

AI Also Integrates with Google Drive
AI can operate not only spreadsheets but also files in Google Drive:

List files within a specific folder
Automatically sort files into folders
Read and analyze document content
Automatically save reports to Drive

The End of the “Manual Excel Correction” Era
Many companies spend a lot of time on “manual Excel updates.” Data transcription errors, formula errors, and missed updates are all resolved through AI integration.
The state of “the spreadsheet is already complete” can be achieved with current technology.
