Ask your numbers in Excel, Word and PowerPoint

Type a question in a cell, put the answer in a report, and refresh next month's deck with one click. The same three add-ins, the same metric definitions, and every number computed from your own data.

Month-end is the same work every month: pull the figures, paste them into a workbook, rebuild the charts, copy the numbers into a Word report and a deck, then fix whatever drifted. Quiriz answers from the data itself, so the figure in the cell, the sentence in the report and the chart on the slide all come from one place, and next month you refresh instead of rebuild.

How it works

  1. Get your data into Quiriz. Upload an Excel or CSV file, push the worksheet you are working in, or connect a source. QuickBooks Online connects directly, and an Excel file on OneDrive can refresh on a schedule. Import copes with real-world workbooks, with stray header rows and notes in the sheet.
  2. Add the add-ins you want from Microsoft AppSource. Excel, Word and PowerPoint each install on their own.
  3. Ask. In a cell, in a document or on a slide. The answer comes back as a number, a table, a chart or a written note, in your file's own styling.

In Excel: the answer in the cell, not a formula to maintain

=QUIRIZ.ASK("net revenue by month this year", "table") returns the answer itself. It can be text, a single number, or a table that spills across a range. The mode argument takes verbose, short, table, notes or chart, and an optional reasoning argument takes low, medium or high for harder questions.

In Word: figures that stay true

Put the cursor where the answer belongs and insert it as a Chart, a Table, Both, a single Figure, or written Notes. Tables are real Word tables, captioned with the question in Word's Caption style, and take a built-in table style whose color follows the document's theme, so the result looks like the rest of the document.

One definition of every number

Define a metric once in Company Context, such as net revenue, gross margin or what counts as an active customer, and every answer follows it, in a cell, a document, a deck or Slack. Ask =QUIRIZ.ASK how a number is defined and it answers from your own definitions. When a source such as HubSpot is connected, its own definitions are added, so answers use the source's numbers. That is the difference between a workbook that agrees with itself and a report that agrees with the deck.

Where the data comes from

What stays private

When you ask from Word or PowerPoint, the question and the rows needed to answer it are sent to Quiriz, and the document or deck itself is never uploaded. Quiriz does not use your data to train AI models, uploaded source files are deleted after conversion, and the platform runs on infrastructure in the United States. Privacy policy →

Start free. You pay for workspaces and the people who build them, not for everyone who asks a question. Scheduled data refresh and scheduled reports are included from the Plus plan. See pricing →

Questions

Where do I get the Quiriz add-ins for Excel, Word and PowerPoint?
Each one is listed on Microsoft AppSource and installs on its own: Quiriz for Excel, Quiriz for Word and Quiriz for PowerPoint. Install the ones you use, connect them to your Quiriz account, and ask.
Does Quiriz upload my workbook, document or deck?
No. In Word and PowerPoint the document or deck is never uploaded; the question and the rows needed to answer it are sent to Quiriz. The Excel add-in reads only the active worksheet, and only when you push it to Quiriz yourself, after a preview.
How is =QUIRIZ.ASK different from a formula I write myself?
You ask in plain words and the answer lands in the cell as text, a number or a table that spills, or as a native chart. There is no formula to maintain, and the answer is computed from a dataset in Quiriz that you can refresh. When a question is too loose, the cell returns a readable token such as #NEEDS_DETAIL with the clarifying question to ask.
Can I update a monthly deck without rebuilding it?
Yes. Every chart, table and figure in a deck built with Quiriz carries its question. Refresh all re-asks each one, and every object stays on the same slide with the same size, position and animations.
Will a refresh change numbers in my Word report without telling anyone?
Only if you want it to. Tick Mark refreshes as tracked changes and every refreshed figure shows up in Word's own revision marks. Lock stops anyone typing over a figure, and a refresh rewrites only what is inside each Quiriz content control, never your headings, numbering or cross-references.
Does it work with QuickBooks Online?
Yes. QuickBooks Online connects directly to Quiriz. The connection is read-only and refreshes daily, and Quiriz never creates, edits or deletes anything in your QuickBooks account.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Start free, upload up to five files, and use Quick Answer and Generate Report while your monthly usage limit lasts. Scheduled data refresh and scheduled reports come with the Plus plan.
