Quadratic review

Quadratic keeps the spreadsheet and puts the AI inside it. You connect a database or import a CSV, Excel or PDF file, ask a question in plain English, and the AI writes the formula, Python, SQL or chart directly into cells, so the logic stays visible to anyone who opens the sheet. Database connections include Postgres, MySQL, Snowflake, BigQuery, MS SQL and Supabase, and app connectors cover QuickBooks, Google Analytics, Mixpanel and Plaid. Pro costs $18 per user per month billed annually with $20 of AI credits a month, unlimited sharing and access to more models; Business costs $36 with $40 of credits and on-demand top-ups. The trade-off is that answers arrive as code cells, which is great for auditability but less friendly for users who only want a sentence back. For people who think in spreadsheets and want live database data in the grid, it is the best value here.
