Parsing your spreadsheet
On upload, WorkMax detects sheets, identifies header rows, classifies each cell (text, number, date, boolean, formula, error), and computes per-column statistics. This structured context β not just raw text β is what the AI sees.
Reasoning and generation
Your request plus the parsed context goes to the language model, which returns a formula, a transformation, a chart spec, or an explanation. Output streams back token by token so you see progress immediately.
Verifiable, not just plausible
WorkMax favors output you can check: formulas come with an explanation of each part, and generated code (SQL, VBA) is shown in full so you can review it before running.
