Work in Parallel and Become an Efficient Reviewer

Treat Crunched as your personal analyst or intern. If you instruct Crunched well, your new AI co-worker can work for 5-15 minute sprints at a time.

Productivity Boost

The difference between a 30% and >2x boost in productivity is your ability to cross additional items off the to-do list.
We encourage you to answer emails, make a slide, clean notes or even grab lunch/coffee while Crunched works. Crunched often catches its own mistakes and iterates until it feels it is ready to provide you a deliverable. Review it once Crunched hands it off, and if the output is not good enough, hit undo and run it again with a clearer prompt.

​
What to Do When You Are Ready to Review

When Crunched completes a task, follow these steps to efficiently review its work:
  • Ask Crunched to explain - Request an explanation of how it linked the model and what changed
  • Request details in Excel - If needed, ask Crunched to add explanations directly in the Excel in a dedicated column
  • Use cell references - Click on the cell references and gray “edited” boxes in the chat to see exactly where Crunched made edits
  • Ask for explanation columns - Have Crunched add notes about its changes in adjacent columns
  • Request step-by-step walkthrough - Ask Crunched to explain the analysis without making edits
  • Review cell references - Click through the edited cells shown in the chat
  • Verify calculations - Spot-check key formulas and outputs

Efficiency Tips

Batch Similar Tasks

Group similar operations together for Crunched to handle in one session

Clear Instructions

Spend an extra minute clarifying your prompt to save review time later

Use Templates

Save effective prompts for recurring tasks

Start Fresh Threads

Begin new conversations for new tasks to maintain performance
Do not edit the Excel file while Crunched is working as this can disrupt its understanding of the sheet structure. However, you can work on other tasks (emails, presentations, other files) while waiting for Crunched to complete its work.

​
When Output Isn’t Perfect

If Crunched’s output doesn’t meet your expectations:
1

Use the Undo Button

Click undo to revert the changes
2

Refine Your Prompt

Add more specific instructions or context
3

Try Again

Start a new message with the improved prompt
4

Break It Down

Consider splitting the task into smaller steps
The more you use Crunched, the better you’ll understand how to structure prompts for optimal results. Every interaction is a learning opportunity!
