Connect your Excel workbooks via file path or cloud storage link. The agent accesses Power Query data models, named ranges, and table structures without requiring manual refresh cycles.

2

Ask

Ask questions like 'Which SKUs have negative margin trends?' or 'Show me regional sales variance against forecast' — the agent queries your workbook structure and formulas directly.

3
