AI formatting, model routing, SSH, performance

May 30, 2025

May was a busy month at Quadratic. We shipped two major releases that spanned AI improvements, database connections with SSH, large performance gains on file imports, and various other features and bug fixes discussed below.

AI formatting

Format and prettify your sheets using AI formatting in Quadratic. Learn more about AI formatting here.

AI get cells

AI now intelligently picks when to go find the data relevant to answering your data questions. In most scenarios, AI doesn't need to grab extra information from the sheet, but in some advanced scenarios, this becomes necessary. AI can now intelligently read and work with any data in the sheet.

Model routing

With the release of Claude 4, Gemini 2.5 Pro I/O edition, GPT-4.1, and other SOTA models, our evaluations began to show that various models succeeded at different tasks within Quadratic. Our model router now intelligently routes the user's prompt to the model that best serves the prompt in question.

SSH database connections

Companies that require SSH for database connections can now use SSH in Quadratic for PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MS SQL Server.

Onboarding questionnaire

~25% of users upon sign-up will now be presented with an onboarding questionnaire. Based on the user's responses, the AI Chat will construct a prompt relevant to the user's industry, constructing some sample data, a chart, and details on the basics of how to use Quadratic.

Autocomplete in tables

You can now autocomplete data that exists inside of tables. Data can be autocompleted within the table and expanded outside of the table.

Start a new AI chat suggestion

As an AI chat grows, the quality of the chat may start to degrade. Our AI chat now counts the number of messages in the chat and alerts the user if the current chat has exceeded 15 messages, encouraging users to clear the chat for better performance.

Performance

We shipped a significant performance improvement, enabling our test cases to upload up to 100MB CSVs into Quadratic without major performance degradation.

Bug fixes

We shipped numerous bug fixes and stability improvements in May. You can view the complete list of bug fixes here.
