Claude Code for Excel

You know Excel. You don't need another formula tutorial.

What you need is a way to skip the tedious parts: the formatting, the copy-paste across sheets, the monthly reports that eat your afternoon.

This workshop shows you how Claude Code changes the way you work with spreadsheets, from understanding a model you inherited, to solving ad hoc problems without Googling, to building a script that handles your monthly reporting for you.

In the live demo, we'll build that automation script from scratch. The kind of task that normally takes an hour, done in seconds.

The program (~2 hours):
• 30 min live demo on a real Excel file
• 90 min guided practice: bring your own spreadsheet and a task you'd love to never do manually again. Work on it with support, or watch someone else's problem get solved and steal the approach.

This is for you if:
• You work with Excel regularly (finance, operations, reporting, portfolio management, consulting)
• You've never used Claude Code: no prior experience needed (but welcome)
• You're tired of repetitive spreadsheet work and open to a radically different approach

You must bring:
• Your laptop (Mac, Windows, or Linux — Mac has the smoothest setup)

Nice to have:
• A Claude subscription
• A spreadsheet and a repetitive task you'd love to never do manually again (or use our demo dataset)
