Why people choose Tellsheet
- Mac and web support. ASAP Utilities is a Windows-desktop COM add-in. Tellsheet runs in Excel on the web and on macOS, so it fits mixed teams and laptops that aren't Windows.
- Preview + revert. See exactly what a tool will do before it runs, and undo it later from an in-workbook history that survives save and reopen.
- Free tier, then one-time $39. Try 16 tools free with no countdown; pay once for the rest — no business/home distinction to navigate.
- Plain-English AI command bar. Describe the task and Tellsheet picks the tool. Bring your own key; only your instruction is sent, never your data.
