the interesting claim isn't "Excel for agents," it's determinism — a real spreadsheet runtime means the maths is reproducible instead of the model guessing at cell values token by token.

I'm not sure I follow, but the math in Nobie ties with the math in Excel.

When you use codex / claude in our built-in terminal, the agents get very high signal context about the workbook and what you're doing in it.

As far as I'm aware, Nobie is the the best spreadsheet for agentic use-cases explicitly because they don't have to guess anymore.
