Spreadsheets are great for crunching numbers, but dense grids make it hard for teams to quickly understand insights and manage projects. Just describe what you need to Gemini, and it transforms your raw data into custom, interactive mini-apps—no coding or complex formulas required. • Prompt-to-app: Build custom visual interfaces in seconds just using natural language. • Two-way live sync: Any edit or move on the canvas instantly updates the underlying sheet cells, and vice versa. • Native & secure: Stays directly inside Google Sheets, keeping all your existing permissions intact.

Abhi Dhar reacted on thisAbhi Dhar reacted on thisAfter fifteen years at Google, I’m ready for a new challenge. This was a decision I did not take lightly, but I was influenced by a hike that I did last year in Jackson Hole. The goal was to climb 29,029 vertical feet on one mountain, over and over again, in under 36 hours. Each step was a challenge, every summit was an accomplishment. But after 19 trips up the mountain, and an amazing sense of accomplishment, it was clear to me that while I will absolutely push myself again, I’ll choose a different mountain. And that’s how I came to a similar decision to leave Google. I had an extraordinary run at Google, working with some of the brightest, sharpest folks I’ve ever encountered. Fifteen years, most recently as VP of Global Partnerships, building the partnership strategy, commercial architecture behind products used by billions of people. I worked with an incredible group of colleagues across Google TV, Chromecast, XR, Messages, Workspace, Gemini, Google Photos, Fi, Health, Home, Pixel, Android, Auto - and of course the Partnerships org. I couldn’t be more proud of what we built together. But after 15 years, I’ve chosen to climb a new mountain. Two things I’m doing next. The first is that I’m launching an exciting new start-up! I’ll be building out a new category in premium health and wellness for people who live active lives, yet run into speed bumps along the way. It’s early, but just thinking about tackling this problem gets my heart-racing. I’ve personally been plagued by this issue countless times as a lifelong athlete playing soccer, field hockey, hiking, swimming, running, Pilates and strength training. (And I know many of you have run into this issue as well.) Most importantly, I am having fun building, learning, flexing new muscles. The second is advisory, board and consulting work at the convergence of where profound technological changes impact business and consumers, with a particular focus in Physical AI and Robotics. My deep expertise crafting strategy, ecosystems, partnerships, GTM approaches across hardware and software is a natural fit with my passion for transformative new technologies. We’re at the precipice of some truly extraordinary changes, and I’m excited and energized to dive in. So, how can you help? Manufacturing, Design, retail, distribution and brand leaders, especially in specialty and premium -- I could use your wisdom, and your contacts. Founders and operators in Physical AI and/orRobotics who need my expertise of building business and partnership strategy at scale -- please reach out or make introductions. Austin folks. I want to meet with folks everywhere, but I am particularly interested in connecting with more folks in and around Austin, and strengthening my local community ties. If any of that sounds like you, follow me at adriennemccallister.com, message me on LinkedIn, or my calendar is open. After 15 years ascending Google mountain, I’m excited to reach my next summit.adriennemccallister.com, message me on LinkedIn, or my calendar is open.

Abhi Dhar liked thisAbhi Dhar liked thisI was one of a hundred folks when I joined JumpCloud seven years ago, after Gregory Keller took a chance on me to build out our strategic alliances. Now, as I close this chapter in the career book, we're just shy of a thousand people across the globe, having more than 10Xed revenue along the way. I was fortunate to wear multiple hats, from alliances to supporting our channel and MSP team as it took shape. Then into business development and M&A as the company scaled. I later became our first Principal Strategist, serving as an evangelist for all things IT and what we were building. Finally, I had the pleasure of leading the most amazing product marketing team. Growth is never linear, and the people who stay curious through the messy parts are the ones who end up shaping what the company becomes. I'm incredibly proud of what we built at JumpCloud, and even more grateful for the people I built it with. I'm not leaving to go somewhere new, but rather to start something new. More to come on that, but first, thank you to Rajat Bhargava and Gregory Keller for giving me the seminal career experience we always talk about at JumpCloud.

Abhi Dhar liked thisAbhi Dhar liked thisAfter eight years at Google, I have decided to move on to a new challenge. Leaving Google was a hard call, but I'm excited about my next chapter (more to follow soon). For those I collaborated with, I am grateful for your time and would like to stay in touch. I'm just a cup of coffee away. I joined Google to work on enterprise security, and stayed on as it became an AI problem. In that time we took Zero Trust from a whiteboard to the default posture for some of the most security-conscious organizations in the world, made Workspace the first productivity suite with end-to-end encryption across the entire suite, and built the governance controls that let enterprises turn AI on rather than block it. Planet scale is an overused phrase, but at Google's scale there is no such thing as a small default. Every setting you ship becomes policy for people who may never open the admin console. None of it was mine. It belonged to product, engineering, security, legal, and policy teams who debated with me constantly and made the work better every time. To the leaders who backed the bets: contextual policies, data egress controls, admin configurations, the anti-hijacking protections nobody demos - thank you. Eight years, one badge, and a lot of coffee. Can't tell if the barista knew today was my last day, but thank you for the latte art that made my morning.

Abhi Dhar reacted on thisAbhi Dhar reacted on thisTwo years ago, EvenUp was about a tenth of the size it is today - fewer people, fewer products, fewer customers, and still very early in what we were building. Two weeks ago, I was back in Montreal for our company offsite, in the same city where I met Saam 16 years ago (Raymond came a few years later). Our theme was “The Next 10x.” Looking around the room at 600+ people, more than half of whom joined in the last year, it was hard not to think about how far we’ve come. But what mattered more was what all that growth has allowed us to do. Every case we touch begins with one of the worst days of someone’s life. Last year, a man I’ll call John was hit by a truck. He suffered 35 life-threatening injuries, spent months in the hospital, and accumulated more than $1M in medical bills. His firm used EvenUp, and his case ultimately settled for $10M without litigation. The number isn’t what stayed with me. It’s the time. It’s that we helped give John years of his life back instead of spending them fighting through the court system. That’s why we’re here. And every outcome like John’s is made possible by people across EvenUp (engineers, designers, operations, salespeople, and so many others) many of whom were together in that Montreal ballroom. To everyone who has helped get us here: thank you. We’ve grown 10x before, but there are still millions of people like John waiting on a system that moves too slowly for them. Reaching them is the next 10x.
