Every month, copying and pasting dozens of Excel files from each department into one summary takes 2 full days
What if I pasted something into the wrong place…
Open Excel files in mismatched formats one by one, find the columns you need, and paste them. The work is simple, but with this many files it takes 2 days, and checking for mistakes still remains. With Samurai App, AI does the totals and people focus on checking the result.
The simpler the work, the more time and nerves it takes#
- Open the files from each department one by one
- Find the columns you need and paste them into the summary workbook
- Compare against the original files to check the totals add up
How it changes with Samurai App#
- STEP 1
Hand over the files and ask, and AI totals them in the cloud
Uploads go up to 500MB per file. Even 100MB-class Excel files are read by AI in a cloud runtime, and the totaled and processed result comes back as a file.
See Large Excel processing - STEP 2
View the totals on a dashboard
Build dashboards from Excel or CSV. "View query" on a panel shows the SQL used for the totals.
See AI dashboards - STEP 3
Keep the monthly steps as a skill
Save totaling steps that worked as a skill, and run them the same way next month. Fix them into a script and the result is the same every time.

An estimate of the time saved#
- Today
- 16 h / month
- With Samurai App
- 2 h / month
- Estimated reduction
- About 88%
That works out to about 168 hours freed up in a year.
Assumptions
Totals that take 2 days (16 hours) a month come to 960 minutes a month. With Samurai App, we assumed 120 minutes a month for handing over the files and checking the result.
This is a rough figure calculated from assumptions, not a measured result. With different volumes or steps, the result changes too.
What your days look like once it is solved#
Month-end is no longer something to dread
No more hunting for paste mistakes, and less overtime before closing.
Talk with the numbers in front of you
With totals done sooner, there is time to think about why the numbers moved.
Same result, whoever is in charge
The steps are kept as a skill, so the way totals are done stays the same when the person in charge changes.
Everyday work comes together, connects, and becomes the company's strength.
