Flowshot

Flowshot is a Google Sheets plugin that brings AI into spreadsheets. The easiest way to use it is the sidebar, which can autocomplete repetitive tasks, generate formulas from descriptions, and create AI-generated images. Power users can use AI formulas such as =COMPLETE, =AI, =FORMULA and =IMAGINE. It can be installed from the Google Workspace Marketplace, and the website states a free plan with 100,000 characters per month. The FAQ says Flowshot uses OpenAI's GPT-3 alongside its own AI model stack, with the model selected automatically for each use case.
