Two ways to work: automated or on-demand

1) Data workflow (set it & forget it)

Automate weekly reports, month-end packs, board dashboards, and more. Data Workflow automates data retrieval so your files refresh on schedule with the latest available data.

Next time you open the workbook – or when your automation runs, your sheets update with one click. No re-mapping, no re-exporting.

2) Data on demand (answer it now)

Need the latest numbers right now? Data on Demand lets you manually pull fresh data into your active workbook. Perfect for one-off analyses of data, IC prep, or validating assumptions on the fly.
