**Type:** Announcement

## Summary

Hugging Face released an update to AI Sheets, an open-source tool for transforming and enriching datasets without code. The update adds vision support powered by Inference Providers, enabling users to upload images, extract structured data, generate visuals, and perform image edits in a spreadsheet interface. Each column can execute AI actions configured with custom prompts and selected models. For text extraction and reasoning tasks, AI Sheets supports vision language models including Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct and Qwen/Qwen3-VL-235B-A22B-Reasoning, while image transformations use models like Qwen-Image-Edit. Users can iterate on prompts, provide feedback using thumbs-up ratings to create few-shot examples, and export completed datasets to the Hugging Face Hub, CSV, or Parquet.

## Context

Images such as receipts, product photos, charts, and scanned documents contain structured information that previously required manual effort or custom scripting to extract, analyze, or generate.

## Approach / What changed

Hugging Face added vision support to AI Sheets via Inference Providers, allowing users to upload image datasets and configure column-level AI actions for transcription, classification, image-to-image editing, and text-to-image generation directly within a spreadsheet environment.

## Takeaways

- AI Sheets allows column-level AI actions to extract structured text, categorize images, generate visuals from text, or edit existing images in a spreadsheet interface.
- User feedback such as manual edits and thumbs-up ratings acts as few-shot examples to improve subsequent model generation results across a column.
- Completed datasets enriched with visual or text transformations can be exported directly to CSV, Parquet, or the Hugging Face Hub as public or private repositories.
