Accelerate is a comprehensive toolbar offering additional features in Excel.

Developed by former M&A and Transaction Advisory Services (TAS) professionals, it addresses real-world challenges faced by professionals daily. You'll find everything from customizable formatting shortcuts and enhanced navigation capabilities to automations like converting PivotTables to formatted normal cells.

Technically, Accelerate is an Excel add-in that requires downloading and installation. Once installed, the Accelerate ribbon will appear among your Excel ribbons, giving you access to all its features.

Accelerate is ideal for professionals in:

• Financial due diligence (FDD)

• Transaction advisory services (TAS) / transaction services (TS) / deal advisory

• Investment banking / mergers and acquisitions (M&A)

• Strategy consulting and other consulting/advisory roles like financial modeling and valuation

• Finance & accounting roles (controlling, FP&A, etc.)

• Excel power users in general

Its intuitive and user-friendly design becomes even more powerful with regular use—a given in these Excel-heavy industries.

Everything you can do with Accelerate, you can also do without it—the difference is the time it takes.

Over six months, professionals in financial due diligence (FDD) / transaction advisory services (TAS) can perform their Excel work at least twice as fast using Accelerate.

Features are easily accessible through the Accelerate ribbon in Excel. Additional options become available in task panes once a tool is started.

Demo videos for every tool, practice files, case studies and tooltips ensure you become proficient in no time.

Designed with practicality in mind, this comprehensive toolbox will make a noticeable impact, even if you start by using just a few tools.

Most third-party or in-house add-ins prioritize basic formatting, such as brand and company colors. While Accelerate includes essential formatting tools, its primary focus is on the technical side, enhancing number crunching, data preparation, and overall Excel efficiency.

In this regard, we find that other Excel add-ins are often either too broad and lack necessary depth or too complex and focus on cases we consider irrelevant.

Our aim is to balance these extremes by offering a toolbox that is both comprehensive and user-friendly. Take our Copy & Paste tool, for example—it perfectly illustrates our approach. It combines numerous features into a single, intuitive task pane, catering to a wide range of applications without being overly complicated.

Yes, we offer a 30-day free trial of Accelerate with full access to all features, no restrictions. No sign-up needed. Download, install, restart Excel, and your trial begins automatically.

Make the most of your trial by exploring our tutorials and case studies, which include examples and instructions on how to use the tools effectively.

Note: Accelerate is compatible only with desktop versions of Microsoft Excel on Windows.
