Overview

Spreadsheets are essential tools for finance and accounting teams. They're flexible, powerful, and deeply embedded in workflows — but as teams grow and complexity increases, they start to break down. Versioning becomes unclear, changes go untracked, and reviews happen over email or chat with no formal record.

Rockhopper fixes this. The platform integrates directly with Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets, connecting to your existing file systems (OneDrive, SharePoint, and Google Drive) so you can keep working in the tools you already use — with structure, oversight, and confidence layered on top.

What Rockhopper does

Version control

Every change to an enrolled spreadsheet is tracked. You can view a detailed change log across cells, tabs, and workbooks, and understand exactly who changed what and when.

Change tracking and auditing

Go beyond knowing what changed — understand why it changed. Rockhopper tracks dependencies, assumptions, and context alongside every edit.

Formal review and approval

Replace email chains and side conversations with structured review workflows. Request reviews from teammates, track approvals, and maintain a complete record of who signed off on what.

Progress and accountability

See which files have uncommitted changes, who's working on what, and whether reviews are pending or complete. Nothing falls through the cracks.
