When you’re working with data — whether it’s sales trends, product performance, or financial results — visualization is key to understanding what’s happening over time.
But in traditional Excel:
- You often have to manually plot data
- Adjust axes, change formats
- Build trend lines or averages
- Double-check for consistency
What if there was a way to instantly generate these insights without the hassle?
Enter Excelmatic.
With just a prompt, I can instantly generate:
- Trendlines to visualize performance
- Distribution charts for how data is spread out
- Financial charts to compare revenue, cost, and profit
And I don’t need to touch a single formula.
How It Looks with Traditional Excel
Let’s say you have monthly sales data like this:
Month | Sales (10K) | Costs (10K) | Profit (10K) |
---|---|---|---|
Jan 2024 | 120 | 80 | 40 |
Feb 2024 | 135 | 90 | 45 |
Mar 2024 | 150 | 95 | 55 |
Apr 2024 | 160 | 100 | 60 |
May 2024 | 175 | 110 | 65 |
Jun 2024 | 180 | 115 | 65 |
Traditional steps in Excel:
- Select the data and insert a chart
- Add a trendline manually
- Adjust chart styles and format labels
- Double-check that your trendline fits the data properly
- Create an extra table for data comparison (like average sales or monthly increase)
Time spent: 15–30 minutes per chart
