Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.4
GPA, above 28 of the 63 other spreadsheet and database tools we grade
SheetAI is an add-on for Google Sheets that adds a SHEETAI formula. You write a prompt, point it at a column and fill it down, and each row returns AI-generated text or, on some plans, images, video or music. It can run on your own API key from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google or xAI, or on a hosted plan that needs no key.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about SheetAI App, taken from its own pages and our grades.
Install the add-on from the Google Workspace Marketplace and type the formula in a sheet you already use.
- 1
Best for AI prompts as a Google Sheets formula
SheetAI is a Google Sheets add-on that runs AI prompts as a cell formula.
- 2
Paid plans start at $12 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $12 per month (Starter, no API key needed).
- 3
There is a free plan
Install the add-on and use your own API key. The page says SheetAI adds no markup, and you pay the model provider directly.
- 4
It runs on Web
Web.
- 5
AI formula for any cell
A SHEETAI formula takes a prompt that can reference other cells, so one formula dragged down a column runs once per row.
- 6
Several model providers
The setup sidebar accepts an OpenAI, Claude, Gemini or Grok key, and the hosted plans cover the same families.
- 7
Text, images, video and music
Besides text, the site says media is generated through Replicate models, for example product images or short video creatives.
- 8
A 2.4 GPA, above 28 of 63
That is against the other spreadsheet and database tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace SheetAI App you would be making a spreadsheet engine with its formulas. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for AI prompts as a Google Sheets formula
SheetAI is a Google Sheets add-on that runs AI prompts as a cell formula. The free route needs your own API key and you pay the model provider, and Starter at $12 a month caps you at 500 calls. It works only inside Google Sheets.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Starter is $12 a month with no key needed, which is the middle of this category. The free route costs you a provider bill instead. |
| Free plan and trial | B | Free with your own OpenAI, Claude, Gemini or Grok key and no cap from SheetAI. The page puts the provider cost near $0.30 a month for 500 text calls. |
| Features | C | One AI formula for any cell, several models, bulk fills and classification. It does one job inside one app. |
| Ease of use | B | Install the add-on from the Google Workspace Marketplace and type the formula in a sheet you already use. The free route needs an API key first; no store rating on record. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | Google Sheets only, though it talks to several model providers. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who SheetAI App is for
- Fits if you live in Google Sheets and want a model to fill or sort columns
- Works for people who already have an OpenAI or Claude key
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you use Excel, because it runs only inside Google Sheets
- Tight if you don't want an API key, since Starter allows 500 calls a month
- Pricey if you want bulk fills and multi-model support, which means Pro at $29
- Watch out: licences are per Google account, team licences go through email, and Pro's usage cap has no number
Good to know
Good for
- Marketers filling product descriptions or ad copy for a whole catalog
- People who already work in Google Sheets and want AI there rather than in a separate chat
- One-off bulk jobs paid for with a credit pack instead of a subscription
Worth knowing
- Runs only inside Google Sheets, installed from the Google Workspace Marketplace.
- Licenses are per Google account; team or domain licenses are arranged by email.
- On the free route you pay the model provider on top, and the pricing page estimates this at about $0.30 a month for 500 text calls on the default model.
- The pricing page shows only the Starter call limit; Pro's usage cap is described as heavy daily use without a number.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace SheetAI App you would be making a spreadsheet engine with its formulas. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $144 a year.
What you could not
- A spreadsheet engine with its formulas.
- An image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make.
- A video model, which you can rent by the second but not make.
- It plugs into other products, Google Sheets, OpenAI and Claude among them.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. SheetAI App’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
