What is SimpleMetrics AI for Sheets?

SimpleMetrics AI for Sheets is a Google Sheets add-on that brings powerful AI capabilities directly into your spreadsheets. It offers a suite of AI formulas such as =GEN(), =VISION(), =IMAGEN(), =AISEARCH(), =PDF(), and =TRANSLATE() to generate text, analyze images, search the web, extract data from PDFs, and translate content. The tool is designed to help users build repeatable AI workflows, automate repetitive tasks, and gain insights from their data without leaving the spreadsheet environment.

Install the AI for Sheets add-on from the Google Workspace Marketplace. Once installed, open Google Sheets and use the AI formulas directly in cells, such as typing =GEN() to generate content or =AISEARCH() for real-time web search. For more advanced automation, switch to Act mode to let the AI agent edit your sheets, and use Custom Instruction to personalize responses.
