OpenAI Startup Fund has led a $14 million funding round for Endex, a startup that CEO and Thiel Fellow Tarun Amasa said on X has created the first AI agent for Microsoft Excel. The agent is designed to help process data, handle financial tasks, and write memos, a move described by Business Insider as potentially transformative for spreadsheet users.
"Finance professionals don't just need search results; they need structured thinking and deep analysis," Amasa told Business Insider, adding that he envisions a future where every firm can access digital teams of analysts to augment time-intensive workflows.
