School and studying
Explanations that stop where the knowledge stops.
The dull half of the week.
Contracts, spreadsheets, PDFs, a folder of scans. It reads what you attach and hands back something you can open - not a table pasted into a chat window.
Three steps.
- 1
Attach what piled up
Contracts, spreadsheets, PDFs, photographed pages. A spreadsheet becomes Markdown and travels along as evidence.
- 2
Say what you need out of it
A summary, a table, a draft reply, a figure you cannot find.
- 3
Get a file back
A real .xlsx or .docx with the numbers in cells - not a table pasted into a chat window.
Org charts, comparisons, processes.
A staff list becomes an org chart, two offers become a comparison with a recommendation, and a process described in an email becomes a diagram.
What it does.
- Reads .xlsx, .csv, .docx and PDF; a spreadsheet becomes Markdown and travels along as evidence
- Hands back a real .xlsx or .docx, with the numbers in cells rather than in a sentence
- Turns figures into a chart inside the conversation, which survives a reload
- Drafts offers, replies and minutes in a second language
- Looks up what changed and names the source it read
- With OneDrive, Outlook or Google Drive connected, it finds the file or the mail you mean and reads it - read only, it never changes or sends anything
- Shares a conversation as a read-only link, or exports it as PDF or Word
Where it stops
It does not sign anything and it does not send anything. A draft is a draft: the sentence that ends up in a contract is one you read first.
Asked like this
Here are twelve monthly reports as PDFs. Pull out revenue per region, put it in a spreadsheet and tell me which region broke its trend.
Which size to use
Medium. Office work is mostly reading carefully, and Medium reads carefully.

Which formats can it read?
.xlsx, .xlsm, .csv, .tsv, .docx, .pdf, plain text, and images of pages. A scanned page is read as an image, so handwriting is hit and miss.
Does it send the email?
No. It drafts; you send. Nothing leaves your account on its own.
Can it read my Outlook or OneDrive?
If you connect them. Microsoft 365 (OneDrive and Outlook mail) and Google Drive can be connected in the app; it then searches your files and reads your mail when you ask it to. Read only: it never changes or sends anything, and you can disconnect at any time.
How large can a file be?
It depends on the plan. The app says so before the upload, not after.
