KE Sheets

Standalone AI spreadsheet

Work in the grid. Bridge to Excel. Add agents.

Opens as its own program. Shares a local workbook library and Office bridge — with installed Microsoft Excel handling advanced Power Query and VBA assignments without rewriting their master files. Coded by William Keenan.

This is the product

A real grid. A real copilot.

Live formulas, multi-sheet workbooks, a shared local library, and an AI copilot that writes cells — formula, fill, analyze, clean — then patches native KE workbooks in place. Generated models export as real .xlsx, not flattened CSV.

For advanced .xlsx, .xlsm, and .xlsb files, this grid is a read-only snapshot. The linked master is never rewritten by the KE grid; Microsoft Excel remains its editor and compatibility runtime.

KE Sheets · 127.0.0.1:7440

Formula bar, tabs, library, and the AI copilot — one app window, everything local.

How you get it

Pay → install → it's yours

KE Sheets is local-first software — there's no website to log into. You subscribe, install with one command, and the app runs on your machine in its own window.

  1. 1

    Subscribe

    $4.99/mo through Stripe. Your subscription is tied to your email; the receipt lands in your inbox.

  2. 2

    Install

    The confirmation page gives you the current product installation instructions.

  3. 3

    Launch

    Run `grokcode sheets` — a dedicated app window opens. Workbooks live in ~/.grokcode/sheets on your disk. Cancel anytime; your files are yours.

Native grid + Excel bridge

Use the right runtime for the workbook

KE Sheets owns its generated grid models. Advanced Excel files stay linked and preservation-safe, while Open Excel, Refresh All, and confirmed VBA actions run in Microsoft Excel itself.

Separate program

grokcode sheets opens a dedicated app window (Chrome or Edge app mode when available) — not another spreadsheet tab.

Byte-preserved Excel masters

Import .xlsx, .xlsm, or .xlsb as a byte-for-byte managed copy. KE never rewrites the linked binary through ExcelJS; Microsoft Excel is its only editor.

Excel-native Power Query

Open Excel to edit M in Power Query Editor, then run Refresh All through installed Microsoft Excel so queries, connections, and credentials use their native runtime.

Trusted VBA execution

Open and enable a trusted imported .xlsm in Excel first. After explicit confirmation, run only its named Module.Procedure; Excel security policy still applies.

AI that writes cells

Formula, fill, analyze, clean, and chat patch native KE workbooks in place. Generated models export as real .xlsx files.

Local, shared library

Native models, linked masters, exports, and AI history live under ~/.grokcode/sheets and sync with the project Office library and sheets_* agents.

Platform and trust note: the Excel bridge requires installed Microsoft Excel on macOS or Windows; Linux retains the native KE grid but cannot run this bridge. External imports stay marked untrusted and require confirmation before Excel opens them. Full Windows-only connectors, Power Pivot, ActiveX, COM, and Win32 parity requires Excel for Windows. To add VBA to a generated .xlsx, Save As .xlsm in Excel and import that saved macro-enabled file before running it.

Launch

One command. Separate window.
