XLS to DSL
Free yourself from Excel's limits. XLS to DSL turns your spreadsheets into tailored business applications, built on a domain-specific language (DSL) that captures your rules exactly. This is the same approach that gave rise to Kopek.
Why XLS to DSL?
Go beyond spreadsheet limitations
Transform your complex calculations and processes into intuitive, accurate, and reliable business modules. No more hard-to-maintain Excel sheets.
Unify and standardize processes
Reduce divergences between employees with standardized operations that are easy to express and execute consistently across your organization.
Improve productivity
Simplified business interfaces allow your teams to focus on what matters most and save valuable time with LowCode/NoCode access.
Automate and scale
Apply your calculations to large data volumes with compiler-inspired optimizations for maximum performance.
Separate rules from data
DSLs enable you to store your data in an exploitable and secure way, separately from calculations.
Secure your sensitive data
Work explicitly without the risk of inadvertent data transmission or viruses, protecting your workstations.
Kopek: from spreadsheet to DSL
The film industry used to compute revenue distribution on fragile, opaque Excel sheets. With Kopek, we replaced those calculations with a domain-specific language: more accurate, fairer for every player in the industry, and auditable to the cent.

Frequently asked questions
How does XLS to DSL differ from other no-code platforms?
XLS to DSL is built around Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) and compiler-inspired optimizations. Unlike generic no-code tools, every application is tailored to your specific business domain, rules, and workflows, giving you maximum performance and accuracy.
Can I keep using my existing Excel files?
Yes. XLS to DSL transforms your existing Excel calculations and processes into structured business applications. Your domain expertise and business rules are preserved and enhanced with better reliability, security, and scalability.
Who can use the applications built with XLS to DSL?
Applications are designed with LowCode/NoCode interfaces so business teams can directly manipulate data and processes without depending on developers for every change.
How long does a typical XLS to DSL project take?
Projects follow a structured approach: an initial workshop to define scope, a proof of concept with regular feedback, then deployment. Timeline depends on complexity, but the framework accelerates delivery significantly compared to traditional development.
Is my data secure with XLS to DSL?
Yes. XLS to DSL separates calculation rules from data, limiting the risk of errors or information leaks. There is no inadvertent data transmission or virus risk, protecting your workstations and sensitive information.
