# Quickstart

> Create your Sourcetable account and start analyzing data in minutes.

## Create your account

**1. Sign up**

Go to [app.sourcetable.com/signup](https://app.sourcetable.com/signup) and create an account with Google SSO or email.

**2. Create a workbook**

After signing in, click **New Workbook** to create your first spreadsheet. You can also upload an existing CSV, XLSX, or JSON file.

**3. Start working with AI**

Press `Cmd+\` (Mac) or `Ctrl+\` (Windows) to open the AI assistant inside a workbook. Ask it anything about your data — generate formulas, create charts, clean data, or run analysis.

You can also press `Cmd+Shift+\` (Mac) or `Ctrl+Shift+\` (Windows) to open the data sidebar for quick access to your data library, connectors, and workbook settings.

## Import your data

You have several ways to get data into Sourcetable:

> [card] Upload a file
>
> Drag and drop CSV, XLSX, JSON, or PDF files directly into your workbook.

> [card] Connect a data source
>
> Connect to databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, or Snowflake, or SaaS tools like Stripe, Salesforce, and HubSpot.

> [card] Retrieve from the web
>
> Ask the AI to find and import data from the web using deep research, web scraping, or the public dataset finder.

## Try the AI assistant

Once you have data in your spreadsheet, open the AI chat and try these prompts:

* "Summarize this data"
* "Create a bar chart of revenue by month"
* "What's the average order value by customer segment?"
* "Clean up the formatting in column B"
* "Write a VLOOKUP formula to match these two tables"

The AI reads your spreadsheet data and responds with formulas, charts, tables, or written explanations — whatever fits the question.
