The Excel VBA AI Assistant integrates artificial intelligence directly into the Visual Basic Editor of Microsoft Excel. It supports users who create, maintain, or analyze VBA macros by enabling code-related tasks entirely within Excel instead of switching to external tools.
Key functions include generating code from natural language descriptions, explaining complex macros, and creating documentation. Existing code can be optimized by identifying inefficient constructs such as cell-by-cell loops or the use of Select and Activate, with alternatives like array processing suggested. The assistant also detects compile-time and runtime errors, proposes corrected versions, and provides standardized error-handling templates with optional logging.
A snippet manager with more than one hundred reusable routines allows frequently used solutions to be stored, searched, and reused directly in the editor.
The Excel VBA AI Assistant is available as an Excel add-in.
