so you can make decisions faster.

Alright, I could keep talking all day,

but I know you didn't just come here for me.

I'm gonna send this over to our Domo product experts

who live and breathe this stuff, real talk.

It's like a group chat with your technical besties.

You need to be free. Woo.

But before I hand things over to our group chat, IRL,

I have to pause on worksheets

because honestly it's the real deal.

Think of worksheets like your favorite spreadsheet.

If that spreadsheet had a little magic sprinkled in it,

learned some new tricks

and started hanging out with the cool kids in Domo,

it's a tool you're going to wonder

how you ever lived without.

I'll see you in a bit. Let's cue worksheets.

So excited to talk about worksheets

and we have so many really awesome

things to talk about today.

It is awesome to be here with all of you. Yeah,

I know James and I, we've worked on App Studio for so long

and while doing that we've talked about worksheets since

forever and I'm so excited we are finally

here at this point in time. I've been hearing

About worksheets a lot in different meetings

and just hearing people talk about it, I've seen mockups,

but I haven't seen anyone demo it yet.

Could you demo it for me? Yeah,

For sure. So we

really tried to take aspects from

various parts of Domo.

So we bring in a lot of stuff from App Studio.

We bring in uh, dataset, views and web forms

and uh, analyzer into one experience on one page

so you don't have to jump around to different parts

of the product, lose your

context, lose your train of thought.

You just stay in one screen

and do all of these activities that, um,

took extra steps to do in the past.

Worksheets is similar

and familiar to people who are used to using spreadsheets,

but unlike Excel,

which can struggle handling massive data sets

and cloud connected data sets,

worksheets gives you the tools to explore those, uh, dynamic

and changing data sets with a simple visual tool.

So let's say I'm an inventory analyst

and my goal is to quickly analyze inventory data

and identify trends all before deciding how to act.

Instead of exporting my data to a different tool,

I'll use worksheets to explore my data directly in Domo

and uncover actionable insights.

Here's how it works In the data center,

I'll select a table coming from Snowflake.

So I'll be building a worksheet live

on top of Snowflake data.

Next, I can filter data by regions

or individual warehouses to focus on specific areas.

I can group records by product categories,

creating a summary of stock levels by type I can reorder,

resize, or hide columns so

that critical information like inventory on hand

is front and center.

Finally, I'll add custom calculations like a column

to flag low stock items falling

below their minimum threshold.

Within minutes, I've transformed a large data set into

something actionable, highlighting the exact products

and locations I need to focus on.

It's important to call out here

that this is live data that I'm looking at.

If anything changes in the data sources,

those will be reflected here in the worksheet spreadsheet.

To make these details even more accessible,

I'll add a visual element.

With just a few clicks,

I can create a bar chart showing stock levels

by product category across all locations.

Simple visuals like this make it easier

to communicate data-driven decisions to the rest of my team.

So then from here I can take this worksheet

that I've created and I can keep it as a worksheet.

I can share it with my team or when I'm ready

to share it more widely, I can convert it into an app

and start designing and putting more visual style into it.

Very cool. It seems very easy

to make a chart in worksheets.

Do you have any other use cases?

Like who else would this be helpful for?

Yeah, so another category of users

that I think will really benefit from this

is financial analysts.

So financial analysts really want to dig into the data

and understand that before they start doing visuals on it.

So this is a tool that will let me not only aggregate data,

but also import financial forecast data Right here in the

worksheet, I'll begin

by selecting the worksheet icon on my financial data set.

This generates what we call a linked table,

meaning any groupings, filters,

or calculated columns I customize here will carry through

whenever I share or use this table.

Next, I'll add columns for forecasts,

input my expected revenue figures,

and even apply formulas

to calculate year over year growth all within

the worksheet interface.

This flexibility allows me

to test different scenarios quickly and efficiently.

Once the preliminary forecasts are ready,

I can share the worksheet with my team.

This allows other collaborators to provide input

or suggest adjustments right there in the shared worksheet.

By keeping everyone working in the same space,

you avoid messy email threads or version confusion.

Now what if this isn't just a one-time analysis?

What if this insight will be

referenced frequently by my team?

No problem with worksheets.

I can transition all my work into App Studio

to create a polished app for longer term usage.

Everything I've done stays intact from groupings

to calculations, so I never have to start over.

Whether you're an inventory analyst exploring stock data

or a financial analyst collaborating on forecasts,

this is a non-intimidating starting point.

If you know Excel, you know worksheets

and with a clean transition into App Studio,

your work never stops with expiration worksheets removes the

barriers between ideas and execution.

Okay, did you guys just see that?

I can't believe how powerful this

is gonna be for everyone out there.

You're gonna be able to just right away start exploring,

do a little summarization, add a new column, not have

to create something new, but have this place, this canvas

for exploration before you get into the formalities

of all the great apps and Domo.

James, when I talk to financial analysts, I have heard

that ability to go from an aggregation

but then drill all the way down to the record view, be able

to create a pivot table when you see some anomaly in the

data is hugely valuable.

So I can't wait to see how they use it,

but I want to double tap on something that you said.

You mentioned worksheets and App Studio,

and since we've got our product manager

for App Studio right here, I want you

to tell me Kush bu a little bit

how you see these two things working together.

Yeah, of course. So in the last two years since we

released App Studio, uh,

we've actually observed our users quite closely seeing

how they're actually using App Studio

and where are these friction points for them.

And what we're trying to do with a lot

of these new features sets that we are bringing in, uh,

we are trying to reduce those friction points so

that they don't have to switch between a lot of tools.

So we have UND Undo Redo, which is something

that everyone has been waiting for for a long time.

Like we see ideas exchanged, like just booming up

with requests for undo radio.

So we are excited about that.

Uh, there's also now all these chart settings

that we've brought right into App Studio.

So you can drag and drop a chart,

a filter cart right onto your layout.

You do not have to go to analyzer for chart settings

or tweaking your filtering and grouping.

So all of this is keeping in mind that, you know,

we want users to come in

and do quick explorations,

worksheets takes it a step further.

It's zero friction, zero intimidation, like James said.

So you wanna come in, you want to build your chart,

you don't wanna worry
