Migrate from spreadsheets

Your spreadsheet CRM
is holding you back.

Google Sheets, Notion tables, and Airtable bases work great for one person. They break the moment a second person touches them, and they have no memory of why a deal is where it is. Import your data into Michi in under 5 minutes.

The problem

Why spreadsheets break
for deeptech relationship management.

👥

Breaks at 2+ people

The second your co-founder edits a row you're editing, you lose the update. There's no activity log, no owner, and no history of who changed what.

🧠

No institutional memory

The reason that grant is in column H is locked in someone's head. When they leave or take a week off, the context goes with them.

🔔

No automatic reminders

Grant deadlines don't remind you. Pilots gone quiet don't flag themselves. You need to remember to check the sheet — and you'll forget.

🔗

No cross-record context

Contacts live in one tab, companies in another, deals in a third. There's no way to see that the three people at Mass General are linked to the same pilot.

No AI layer

Your spreadsheet cannot brief you before a meeting, draft a follow-up email, or tell you that this investor backed two competitors last quarter.

🔒

No access control

Anyone with the link can see everything. There's no row-level security, no audit log, and no way to share a subset without copying and sharing another tab.

How it works

Import in 3 steps.

Works from any spreadsheet tool: Google Sheets, Excel, Notion, Airtable, or plain CSV.

01

Export your data as CSV

From Google Sheets: File → Download → CSV. From Notion: Export → CSV. From Airtable: Grid view → Download CSV. From Excel: File → Save As → CSV.

02

Paste or upload into Michi

Go to any empty state (Companies, Contacts, or Investors) and click "Paste from spreadsheet". Upload your CSV or paste directly. Michi detects columns automatically.

03

Review and confirm

Michi shows you a preview: how many rows it found, which columns mapped to which fields, and any rows with missing required data. Confirm to import.

What imports

Everything that matters.

Contacts

Name, email, phone, title, company, LinkedIn URL, custom tags

Companies

Name, website, country, industry type, stage, notes

Deals / Opportunities

Name, stage, value, close date, owner, associated company

Investors

Fund name, partner name, stage focus, check size, portfolio notes

Column mapping is automatic but editable. Michi never overwrites data you don't approve.
