Spreadsheet

Lido adds powerful paradigms on top of ordinary spreadsheets, enabling you to build structured data pipelines, automate actions, and connect to external data sources—all within a familiar spreadsheet interface.

What makes Lido spreadsheets different?​

Lido extends the standard spreadsheet with several core paradigms:

  • Tables — Structured, named datasets with columns that can pull in external data, perform calculations, and store per-row data
  • Actions — Spreadsheet-defined operations that execute when triggered, enabling automation directly from your formulas
  • Formulas — A rich set of Lido-specific formulas for messaging, AI, file management, JSON, scripting, and more
  • Concepts — Features like named cells, local-only cells, and custom lambdas that extend what a spreadsheet can do
