Spreadsheets That Build Their Own Columns
AI Sheets gives you a fast, Google-Sheets-simple spreadsheet experience powered by Handsontable — plus AI that generates column schemas from a plain-English description ("track inbound leads with name, company, stage, last touch"). Paste or import data, share via internal teammates or public links, and ask grounded questions against the actual rows.
What AI Sheets Helps You Do
Six everyday capabilities — without leaving MangoApps for a separate spreadsheet tool.
Generate Columns From A Prompt
Describe what you want to track in plain English. The AI proposes a column schema — types, labels, validation hints — that you can adjust before the sheet is created.
Paste, Type, Or Import
Paste rows from anywhere, type directly into the grid, or import CSV. The Handsontable grid handles thousands of rows without lag.
Validate Cells
Per-column validation — required fields, regex, ranges, enums. The grid blocks bad input at the cell level, not after a save.
Share Internally Or Publicly
Share with internal teammates by user or group with read/edit roles. Public links (admin-controlled) let you publish a sheet to anyone with the URL.
Export Anywhere
Export to CSV or Excel. The sheet stays canonical inside MangoApps; the export is a snapshot.
Ask Questions Of The Data
The AI Sheets Agent in Ask AI answers natural-language questions grounded in actual rows. No hallucinated totals; no invented columns.
Three Ways AI Sheets Earns Its Place
Why teams build sheets inside MangoApps instead of opening another Google Sheets tab.
AI-First Schema Design
AI Sheets starts with a single question — "what are you tracking?" — and proposes the schema. Columns, types, labels, validation, and defaults all suggested before you create the sheet.
- Describe your sheet — "track support tickets with customer, priority, owner, status, resolved-at".
- Review proposed schema — types, labels, validation, defaults — adjust before creation.
- Refine as you go — add columns by describing them; the AI fills in the schema.
- Bring your own data — paste rows, import CSV, or start from scratch.
Sheets That Stay Inside The Workspace
A spreadsheet that lives inside the same tenant as your news feed, wikis, and projects is searchable from the same place, governed by the same permissions, and connected to the same audit trail.
- Business-scoped — every row, share, and public link is tenant-isolated.
- Indexed for search — sheet names and column headers surface in AI Search.
- Permissions you already know — same role model as the rest of MangoApps.
- Autosave + history — every change is captured; no "last edited 3 days ago" surprises.
Grounded AI Q&A
AI Sheets' agent reads the actual rows, returns the column schema and paginated data, and answers questions only from what's there. Grounded answers, not hallucinated totals.
- Six tools, five read-only, one gated create — discovery, schema, rows, search, ask, create.
- Confirmation-gated create — the agent can't quietly spin up a new sheet without your OK.
- Permission-aware — the agent sees only the sheets the user can already open.
- Grounded answers — every quantitative claim ties to a row.
AI Sheets In Practice
A practical scope check: what the app covers, which controls matter, and the workflows teams usually run first.
Core workflow
Create standalone spreadsheets in seconds (no setup or templates required).
Controls that matter
AI Features includes AI column schema generation from a prompt and AI Actions on rows / columns / selections.
Scope and specs
Useful specs: Default row limit: 5,000 (admin-configurable); Max import file size: 50 MB; Google Sheets import timeout: 30 seconds.
Shift coverage tracker
Track open shifts, coverage status, and follow-ups in one shareable grid.
Onboarding checklist
Assign owners, due dates, and status for every onboarding task.
Safety inspections log
Capture inspection findings, severity, and remediation progress.
Connected To The Rest Of MangoApps
→ Drive
CSV imports/exports flow through Drive. Public-link permissions follow the same pattern as Drive's public link controls.
See Drive→ AI Search
Sheet titles and column headers are searchable alongside wikis, posts, and files.
See AI Search→ Workspace
Embed a sheet view inside a Workspace canvas — project trackers stay scoped to the project.
See Workspace→ Database
For structured app-like data with relations, graduate from a sheet to a Database. AI Sheets is the lightweight starting point.
See Database→ Forms
Forms can write submissions into a Sheet. Capture data on a form, see it in a grid.
See Forms→ Tasks
Track a list of tasks as a sheet when the structure is light. Promote rows to Tasks when the work needs full task management.
See TasksREPLACES POINT TOOLS
One spreadsheet in place of "Google Sheets + ChatGPT + glue"
Teams today use Google Sheets or Excel for the data, ChatGPT in a side tab for the enrichment, and a stack of Zaps or scripts to move the output back into the workflow. AI Sheets does all three inside the tenant — with platform identity, audit, and workflow already attached.
Google Sheets + ChatGPT
The DIY enrich-with-AI workflow
- AI columns are first-class — no copy/paste loop, no "did I forget a row?" drift
- Data never leaves the tenant; nothing trains a third-party model
- Output flows into Tasks, Bots, and Workflows natively — no Zap to maintain
Excel + Microsoft Copilot
AI bolted onto a desktop spreadsheet
- Works for the 80% of your workforce without an M365 Copilot license
- Lives in the same app the team already uses for chat, tasks, and workspaces
- Permissions, sharing, and audit follow the workspace model — not a OneDrive folder
Rows.com
Spreadsheet built around AI columns and live data
- The same per-employee license that covers AI Sheets also covers 100+ other apps
- Sheet data is queryable by every other agent in the platform, not a sealed product
- Identity, audit, and retention are inherited — not vendor-specific add-ons
Bricks
AI-first spreadsheet alternative
- Lives inside the platform the team already opens — no new tab, no new login
- AI enrichment, summaries, and Q&A are all governed by the same model tiering
- Sheets compose with Tasks, Bots, and Workflows out of the box
Causal
Modeling and forecasting spreadsheet
- The same sheet runs operational data AND AI enrichment — no separate modeling app
- Lightweight; no per-model license; no learning curve beyond Google Sheets
- Output composes with the rest of the workflow stack instead of staying analyst-only
PLATFORM LEVERAGE
AI Sheets inherits everything else MangoApps already does
A standalone AI-spreadsheet has to build, buy, or integrate each of these. AI Sheets gets them for free because the platform already runs them.
Identity & SSO
Sheets are owned by authenticated users with the same SSO/MFA every other app uses — no separate "spreadsheet workspace" provisioning.
Workspace permissions
A sheet is scoped to a workspace or shared link with the same model Drive, Tasks, and Workspaces use. One ACL story, not two.
AI model tiering
AI columns run on the same nano/small/medium/standard tiering as the rest of the platform — admin controls cost without per-app rewiring.
Audit log & retention
Edits, exports, and AI column runs land in the same audit log and retention policy eDiscovery already uses across every module.
Tasks & workflow
A row can spawn a Task with owner and due date; a status column can flip when the task completes. Two-way wiring, no glue script.
Bots & automation
Sheets feed Bots, Workflows, and Forms with live data — using the same automation engine as every other app.
INDUSTRY FIT
Built for the teams that run their ops on a spreadsheet
AI Sheets is the live-data workbench for organizations where a Google Sheet was already the system of record — and the enrichment, follow-up, and reporting kept falling off the edge.
Operations & RevOps
Pipeline cleanup, lead enrichment, and cross-system reconciliation all run in one sheet with AI columns instead of nightly scripts.
Marketing
Campaign briefs, content calendars, and landing-page A/B inputs all enriched with AI columns — feeding Comms Hub and Mango GTM directly.
Sales & GTM
Account research, account-tiering, and outbound prep enriched in sheets the AE already maintains — pushed into the CRM via workflow.
Finance & Procurement
Invoice reconciliation, vendor enrichment, and accruals run on a sheet that talks to Mango Billing and Mango Spend directly.
HR & People Ops
Headcount planning, comp benchmarking, and role-mapping done in one sheet that respects org-chart and comp-band permissions.
Customer Success
Account health snapshots, QBR data prep, and renewal-readiness enrichment all live in a sheet wired into Mango CS automatically.
WHY MANGOAPPS WINS
One platform beats a stack of point solutions on every axis
The argument finance, security, IT, and the operator all share — and the one a standalone AI-spreadsheet structurally cannot answer.
Cheaper than the stack
One per-employee suite license replaces Sheets + ChatGPT Plus + Rows + Zapier glue — and the bill stops growing per row processed.
More secure
Sheet data never leaves the tenant. AI enrichment runs against governed models, not a public chatbot a contractor pasted PII into.
Easier to deploy
Already deployed if you have MangoApps. Create a sheet, add an AI column, run a workflow — same day, no IT ticket.
Easier to use
Google-Sheets-simple keyboard model. AI columns are configured inline; no separate "prompt engineering" surface to learn.
Easier to manage
AI model cost, sharing, and retention controlled from the same admin as the rest of MangoApps — no vendor-specific surface.
Easier to extend
A row can fire a Task, a Form, a Bot, or an e-signature — using the same automation engine as every other app.
AI is actually better
The AI Sheets Agent answers grounded questions against real sheet data with permission-aware scope — and never invents columns or totals.

At our head office within HR, marketing, and finance, we use ChatGPT quite a bit, and MangoApps AI Helper is a useful tool for us. As I go around to the stores, I’ve been showing them how the AI Intranet Helper can find things and answer plain language questions about our resources, and they’re quite excited about that.

Frequently Asked Questions
AI Sheets isn't trying to replace a full general-purpose spreadsheet — it's the fast, tenant-scoped grid for the data that belongs inside MangoApps. AI-generated column schemas, a grounded Q&A agent, and a permission model that matches the rest of the workspace mean a sheet doesn't have to leave the tenant to be useful.
Default cap is 5,000 rows per sheet (configurable). The Handsontable grid handles that comfortably with autosave on every change.
Computed columns and validation are supported. The focus is on AI-generated column schemas and grounded Q&A — for heavy formula-driven modeling, Google Sheets or Excel remain the right tool.
Yes, when the public-links config is on. Admins control whether public sharing is enabled tenant-wide; each sheet's public link is opt-in per sheet.
The agent has six tools — list sheets, read schema, page through rows, search, ask, create. Five are read-only. The one write (create sheet) is confirmation-gated. The agent answers questions from rows it has actually retrieved — totals come from the data, not from a guess. See the agent page.
Yes. Paste rows directly into the grid, or import a CSV. Export is supported to CSV and Excel.
AI Sheets is the lightweight, sheet-first surface. The Database app is the structured-app surface — typed columns, relations, views, role-scoped record access. Use AI Sheets when a flat grid is enough; graduate to Database when relationships matter.
Sheet titles and column headers are indexed. Row-level content is not in the platform-wide AI Search index by default — that's what the AI Sheets Agent's per-sheet retrieval is for.
