Rows

Rows is an all-in-one spreadsheet designed for teams and individuals to manage data, build reports, and run analysis using built-in artificial intelligence. It functions as a flexible spreadsheet equipped with live data connections to external sources, allowing users to extract information from PDFs, websites, and business applications without writing code. The platform aims to eliminate traditional database dashboards, SQL queries, and complex formula stitching by letting users interact with their data using plain language.

Rows fits individuals, marketing teams, agencies, and business professionals who need to pull data from diverse online sources, track social metrics, or manage financial models without relying on engineering resources or traditional BI tools. It is a poor fit for organizations that require custom on-premise deployments or teams seeking fully open-source spreadsheet infrastructure.

Rows operates on a freemium model with a free tier alongside paid plans billed either monthly or annually. The Free tier costs $0 per month and includes unlimited spreadsheets, 5 AI tasks per month, manual data table imports, 10 integration accounts, up to 3 guests, branded embeds, 7-day version history, and 500 Rows API calls per month. The Plus plan costs $8 per month per user when billed monthly or $6 per month per user when billed annually, and includes 200 AI tasks per month, daily automated data tables, 10 integration accounts, up to 10 guests, branded embeds, 30-day version history, and 50,000 Rows API calls per month. The Pro plan costs $79 per month plus $8 per month per user when billed monthly, or $59 per month plus $6 per month per user when billed annually, offering 1,000 AI tasks per month, minute-by-minute automated data tables, 100 integration accounts, up to 200 guests,

Unlike traditional spreadsheets that require manual data entry and complex formula writing, Rows incorporates native artificial intelligence designed to act as a data analyst directly inside the grid. It replaces manual CSV stitching and BI dashboards by connecting natively to over 50 sources, allowing users to converse with their datasets in plain language. Additionally, it offers built-in embedding capabilities that let users publish live, interactive calculators and reports directly into external websites or documentation platforms.

Rows works with databases, ad platforms, CRMs, social media platforms, data warehouses, back-office platforms, analytics tools, bank accounts, PDFs, and thousands of websites via the RowsX browser extension.

Rows offers a capable spreadsheet environment for users who want to combine live external data sources with AI-driven analysis. The free plan is worth trying for individuals who only need basic manual data imports and a small number of monthly AI tasks. Teams requiring frequent automated refreshes, larger file imports, and higher API call limits will need to look at the paid Plus or Pro tiers. Buyers should verify their specific integration counts and file size restrictions against the plan limits before committing.
