Julius is an assistant that specializes in numbers.

What Julius does
Who it’s for: anyone who receives data exports without being comfortable with Excel formulas: sales reps, financial controllers, marketing, HR.
Charts on request
You describe the chart you want: bar, line, pie, scatter plot. Julius draws it from your data, and you change it in one sentence.
Clean up a file and get it back
Julius spots duplicates, badly written dates, and empty cells, then gives you a clean file. You ask for the result in Excel or CSV, and a download link appears in the conversation.

- Reports and dashboards ready to share
- A presentation built from your numbers
- Connect your data sources

Julius pricing
Julius publishes its prices in dollars. Unused credits are lost at the end of the month and you can’t buy more: you have to change plans. A subscription bought in the iPhone or Android app is canceled through Apple or Google, not on the site.
| Plan | Price | Who it’s for |
|---|---|---|
| Free Recommended to start | $0 | Trying it on a real file |
| Plus | $20 per month, or $16 per month billed yearly | Analyzing files every week |
| Pro | $45 per month, or $37 per month billed yearly | Heavy use, company data |
| Max | $200 per month, or $166 per month billed yearly | Very large volumes, one person |
| Business | $450 per month, or $375 per month billed yearly | A team, up to 50 users |
| Enterprise | Custom pricing | Large organizations |
What the free plan includes
25 welcome credits, then 25 credits per day. Enough to ask a few questions about a file. Files are erased after one hour of inactivity, and exporting reports, charts, and presentations requires a paid plan.
Nova’s advice
Start for free: 25 credits per day are enough to test Julius on a real export and see whether it reads your columns correctly. Move to Plus if you analyze files every week or need to export your charts and reports. If your company already provides ChatGPT, Claude, or Copilot, try their file analysis first: it covers simple needs.
A first try, in 5 minutes
Your data. Julius doesn’t train any AI on your files, but all data is stored and processed in the United States.
What it does less well
- Julius can get things wrong: misread a column, mix up two dates, or go in circles on a vague request. Always check a total you know before sharing a figure.
- The cost of a request in credits isn’t known in advance. A full analysis can empty the day’s free allowance in one or two questions.

- Choose your sales export in Excel or CSV. First remove the columns that contain people’s names.
- Paste the prompt below and send it.
- Julius shows the steps of its calculation, then the chart. Check a total you already know to make sure it read the file correctly.
- Ask for a tweak in one sentence: “Keep only the top three regions” or “Switch to a line chart, month by month.”
- Right-click the chart to copy or save it, then paste it into your email or presentation.
The prompt to copy
Here is my sales export. Give me revenue by region, ranked from largest to smallest, in a bar chart. Then tell me, in three simple sentences, what changed most compared with the previous month.
