Quadratic review
A collaborative spreadsheet that brings AI, code, and live SQL analysis into one workspace.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Quadratic brings spreadsheet work together with natural-language AI assistance, Python, SQL, and JavaScript. It is aimed at individuals and teams analyzing structured data who want to work with files or connected databases, create charts, and share results in a collaborative workspace. Users can import CSV, Excel, Parquet, PDF, and Google Sheets data, then analyze it alongside spreadsheet formulas and code. This breadth makes Quadratic a fit for analysts and teams whose work moves between spreadsheets and SQL; someone seeking only a simple standalone spreadsheet may not need its additional tools.
Database access is a central strength. Quadratic lists connections for PostgreSQL, MySQL, Snowflake, BigQuery, MariaDB, Microsoft SQL Server, CockroachDB, Supabase, and Neon, among others. Direct SQL connections return live query results, while QuickBooks, Google Analytics, Mixpanel, Plaid, Google Sheets, and MCP-compatible AI clients broaden its ecosystem. Teams can collaborate in real time, use permissions and admin-controlled export settings, and schedule data refreshes. Exports include Excel, CSV, Quadratic Grid, PNG, and PDF. That combination suits shared analysis workflows, though teams should consider whether their preferred data sources and export formats match the listed options.
The Personal plan is free and has limited AI usage, sharing, files, connections, and support. Pro costs $18 per user per month with annual billing and includes $20 in AI credits per month, additional privacy controls, and unlimited sharing, files, and connections. Business costs $36 per user per month with annual billing; it includes $40 in AI credits per month, on-demand additional AI credits, and everything in Pro. Enterprise offers custom AI usage, Single Sign-On, a self-hosting option, and dedicated support. The free tier is a starting point for lighter work, while paid plans fit users needing broader collaboration or controls. Enterprise is the option for organizations that require self-hosting or dedicated support.
