Crunched review
A specialist AI analyst for complex Excel, PowerPoint, and firm-specific review workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Crunched is an AI analyst platform for consulting, finance, and other advisory firms that work extensively in Excel and PowerPoint. Its specialized agents build financial models, create presentation slides, extract information, and review deliverables. The product is aimed at teams that need structured support for complex workbooks, presentation production, and firm-specific processes rather than a general-purpose spreadsheet assistant.
Access is granted firm by firm, and the vendor states that a senior conversation precedes every deployment. That makes the buying process more consultative than a self-serve subscription. The platform also offers regional data residency and local deployment options, which may matter to firms with specific handling requirements. Published product details identify Slack, email, and Microsoft Teams integrations, while the primary working environment is Microsoft Excel alongside PowerPoint.
Crunched’s strongest distinction is its review layer. It checks Excel workbooks, decks, charts, and related materials for errors and inconsistencies, including formula issues, cross-slide consistency, and chart reconciliation. Financial and advisory teams can also define custom workflows, reuse prompts to standardize house style, coordinate parallel work across Excel, PowerPoint, and data rooms, and maintain an audit trail covering AI and human edits. Firms seeking this combination of review controls and bespoke processes should consider Crunched; teams wanting a lightweight spreadsheet assistant or a self-serve purchase may prefer a narrower, simpler tool.
