Proton is slowly rolling out Proton Sheets, a new privacy-focused spreadsheet tool inside Proton Drive.
The tool is designed for people and teams who want an easy way to manage data without worrying about tracking, surveillance, or their files being used to train AI systems.
Proton wants to offer a safer option, and that is where Proton Sheets comes in. Every spreadsheet you create is protected with end-to-end encryption, which means no one else, including Proton, can see your data. Everything inside the file, even small details like filenames, is encrypted automatically. You can work with your data, manage budgets, plan tasks, or track projects without worrying about data leaks or unwanted access.
The tool feels familiar to anyone who has used spreadsheets before. You can enter numbers, use formulas, create charts, and collaborate with other people in real time. Proton Sheets also supports importing and exporting files, so you can bring in your existing CSV or Excel documents and protect them with encryption. Access controls make it easy to decide who can view or edit your sheet, and you can remove their access anytime. You can also open your spreadsheets securely from any device.
All of this is backed by Switzerland’s strong privacy laws, which offer far more protection than the laws in most countries where Big Tech companies operate. This makes Proton Sheets a helpful tool for businesses that need to protect customer information, consultants who work with external partners, journalists who handle sensitive data, and organizations that want to avoid having their documents scanned or used for AI training.
Proton Sheets joins the growing collection of Proton services, which already includes Proton Mail, Proton Calendar, Proton Drive, and Proton Docs. Together, they create a fully private workspace where emails, files, documents, and spreadsheets stay secure by default. As cyberattacks continue to increase each year, using encrypted tools can help organizations show that they are serious about protecting their data and respecting the privacy of their users.
