The problem:
Why did the agent decide to calculate it that way?
When Claude or GPT generates spreadsheet work in Excel, it might look good on the surface. But where did its definition of “good” come from? What you’re seeing is an average of thousands of similar models loaded in training data. Without a source or citation, there’s no understanding of the reasoning behind the decisions, making it hard to blindly trust its correctness without thorough error checking.
The Spreadsheet Citations solution:
An agent that cites its sources and inspiration
Atomiq’s agent tells you exactly which past workbooks or community templates were used when drafting the model, either as a direct copy/paste of the logic or just as inspiration that it modified later. One click takes you directly to those source workbooks.
How it works:
Ask for a task you do all the time
“Build a DCF model but with two debt tranches, unlike the one I did for company ABC yesterday.”
Atomiq finds and cites
Atomiq proves to you where it found the original work by listing its sources.
Click to review
You can visit the source files to verify for yourself.
