Workbook

One workbook. Every source. Always in sync.

A Workbook brings all the data behind an analysis into one place — spreadsheets and databases, connected together and synced automatically. As your sources change, your analysis stays current without a single re-upload. Ask one question, and tableArth.ai reaches across the whole Workbook to answer it.

The idea

A Workbook is your analysis, with its data attached.

Instead of exporting data into a file that goes stale the moment you save it, a Workbook connects to the real sources and keeps them together. Three things make it work.

Multiple sources, one place

Add Google Sheets, Excel files, and databases like MySQL and MongoDB to the same Workbook — no warehouse, no ETL, no flattening everything into one sheet first.

Synced automatically

The Workbook tracks each source as it changes. Your numbers move when the data moves — so the analysis you built last week is still right today, with zero re-uploading.

One question, one answer

Ask in plain English and tableArth.ai works out which sources the question needs, joins them, and returns a single unified answer — with the right chart.

Always current

Connected once. In sync from then on.

When you add a source to a Workbook, tableArth.ai connects to it directly rather than taking a copy. From then on it stays in sync with the source, so the moment your spreadsheet or database changes, the next question you ask reflects it.

  • No re-uploading — the source is the source of truth
  • No version drift — one connected copy, not ten emailed files
  • Large datasets handled — reliable loads, no upload timeouts

FAQ

Workbooks, answered.

What is a Workbook?

A Workbook is where tableArth.ai keeps the data sources behind an analysis together in one place — Google Sheets, Excel files, and databases such as MySQL and MongoDB. It syncs with each source automatically, so your analysis stays up to date without any re-uploading, and you can ask one question across all of them.

Which data sources can a Workbook hold?

Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel files, and databases including MySQL and MongoDB, with more coming soon. You can mix source types in a single Workbook. See the full list on the data sources page.

Does a Workbook stay in sync automatically?

Yes. A Workbook automatically syncs with each connected source, so as your underlying data changes your analysis stays current — no re-uploading and no manual refresh.

Can I ask one question across all the sources in a Workbook?

Yes. With a multi-source Workbook you ask a question in natural language and tableArth.ai pulls data across all your connected sources to return a single, unified answer. More on the multi-source analytics guide.

Do I need to combine my data into one sheet first?

No. tableArth.ai understands files with multiple tables or tabs and databases with multiple tables, and joins related data when a question needs it. Your data no longer needs to be flattened into a single sheet.
