Wax (https://www.wax.run/) lets you build internal tools on top of existing Google Sheets your team already uses. We help you automate annoying DevOps tasks like updating data in SQL. You can create a bidirectional link between Google Sheets and your database (Postgres, Snowflake, MySQL, Redshift, and SQL Server) in a couple clicks. You can also attach buttons in Sheets to Python and SQL scripts (e.g. hit an API using values from the current Sheet, process the results with Python, and return the results to Sheets). Actions can be scheduled to run hourly, daily or whatever cadence works for you.

Here's a demo of building reports:
