Built by people who've felt the frustration firsthand

Three founders. One very familiar frustration.

It started on the client side

Oliver Ahlberg wasn't a designer — he was a client, trying to follow along as his summer home renovation unfolded across a sprawling Google Sheet. The more he tried to engage with it, the more chaotic it got.

“If it’s this terrible for the client, what's it like for the designers?"

This is what he kept running into:

Trying to pinch-zoom a photo in a Google Sheet to see what it was that he was actually looking at

Forever second-guessing what exactly he was approving and if this was the latest version

Sharing worries

Multiple stakeholders meant paying a game of "Guess whose comment is that"

The big question

The entire process was riddled with inefficiencies, overwhelm and opportunities for human error.

The question didn't go away

So Oliver brought in two partners who recognised the problem from their own experience — a designer who'd seen the same chaos running his own design studio, and a developer who'd watched it play out at scale across the interior design industry. thesheet was what they built together.

The mantra hasn't changed: starting a project in thesheet should feel no harder than opening a Google Sheet. What you get out of it, though, is a whole different story.
