About Your Spreadsheet Stack
Many indie founders track metrics manually in Google Sheets or Notion. While spreadsheets are flexible, they require constant maintenance, lack automation, and provide no real-time insights. It’s easy to forget an update, and you’ll never get proactive alerts from a spreadsheet.
