Slides

What each one does

Simple Excel

  • Reads and writes Excel (.xlsx) and CSV files
  • Filters rows, selects columns, and sorts data by any field
  • Performs calculations like sums, averages, and group totals
  • Adds new columns with formulas combining existing data
  • Exports results to new spreadsheets or specific sheets

Slides

  • Creates presentation files in PowerPoint, Google Slides, or web formats based on your needs
  • Applies your brand guidelines and style preferences automatically to every slide
  • Formats content following design rules (readability, color consistency, spacing)
  • Saves your approved templates and reuses them across projects
  • Tracks versions so you can compare changes or revert to earlier drafts

When to pick each one

Reach for Simple Excel when…

  • You need to pull specific data from a large spreadsheet without opening Excel
  • You're combining data from multiple CSV files into one report
  • You want to calculate totals or summaries across rows automatically
  • You need to clean up or reformat spreadsheet data quickly

Reach for Slides when…

  • You need a pitch deck, investor presentation, or client report quickly
  • You want slides that match your brand without manually formatting each one
  • You're creating multiple presentations and want consistent visual style across all of them
  • You need to turn notes or outlines into polished slides automatically
