Goodlookup is an innovative tool designed specifically for spreadsheet users to speed up topic clustering work in Google Sheets. This pre-trained model combines the intuition of GPT-3 with the join capabilities of Fuzzy Matching to match similar text strings using semantic relationships, synonyms, and cultural similarities. Unlike traditional fuzzy matching tools that only consider similarities within strings, Goodlookup takes a holistic approach to text data matching, making it a useful tool for text-to-text record linking problems.
Goodlookup functions similarly to popular spreadsheet tools like VLOOKUP or INDEX MATCH, but it offers a new layer of semantic understanding to text data matching, making it a valuable addition to the data ops repertoire. It is available on a subscription basis, with a yearly cost of $15, and it complements rather than replaces traditional fuzzy matching tools. Goodlookup is an ideal solution for modern spreadsheet users who have data living in multiple places without uniform naming conventions, making it challenging to get a clear and unified view of the data.
