At the beginning of this year, big portions of @databricks started running on Genie. When finance started doing all their work with Genie, we noticed that they were combining Genie with a Live Cloud Spreadsheet called Row Zero. This combination is really powerful. We met the Row Zero team and were blown away. Today, we're excited to announce that we've agreed to acquire Row Zero. Stay tuned for an awesome experience of Genie + Row Zero: databricks.com/company/newsr…

Welcome to the team, Row Zero! 🚀 databricks.com/company/newsr…
