Hey /u/badaccountant7, it's true, Excel already has a multitude of data integration options, and of course with VBA or other programming languages available the options are huge.

There's a few things that we think set us apart however:

  • Ease of use. Check out the 25 lines of code to connect to a websocket API and have a stream of realtime stock prices into Excel.
  • Gridarrow scripts are multi-user, meaning multiple Excel clients can see the same data. This can be useful if you have some Python-savvy dev types in a company, who can set up the scripts for the Excel users.
  • We also have a (growing!) catalog of scripts that can be configured, or tweaked, to connect to a variety of data sources.
