tldr: Sometimes I just need a table to hold text and numbers, so I wish it could have a template to make it more compact, to fit regular text inside.

Background:

Today, a table’s default size, padding, cell sizes, fit elements like notes, cards, etc’. It serves more as a visual guideline than an excel sheet, which fits some use cases but not all. One need I constantly have is pasting/writing tabular data so that I can discuss it with others.

Problem:

To fit regular text, ‘sheet style’, requires effort that I end up doing elsewhere. It’s easier and faster to write/paste tabular content on a notion/figjam/whimsical/sheets table and copy paste or screenshot then it is creating a miro table, working on its sizes, text sizes, column and row width and height, bold titles, backgrounds, (not even touching alternating row backgrounds).

I might later spend time on beautifying the table, but doing it up front and adjusting for any change during brainstorming takes too much time and effort.

Solution idea:

  1. A table template suitable for text.
  2. Pasting tabular data will automatically use this template

Outside of scope: 

I don’t need a full google sheets alternative
