I’m the creator of Tablepilot (https://github.com/Yiling-J/tablepilot), an open-source tool that lets you effortlessly generate or autofill content for tables using AI. Tablepilot comes with both a CLI and WebUI interface, and it allows you to easily switch between different models.

To give you an idea of how it works, I’ve created this 100 AI Generated Recipes example, which includes detailed information and images. The recipes are generated using `gemini-2.0-flash-001` and `gemini-2.0-flash-exp-image-generation`. To ensure diversity in the results, I use three columns as context to guide the LLM: Cuisine, Must Have Ingredient, and Meal.

You can check out the results on this Notion site: https://tabulator-ai.notion.site/1df2066c65b580e9ad76dbd12ae.... The gallery view showcases the images nicely, and you can switch to table view to explore the details of each recipe.

Why Tablepilot?

I've always been interested in spreadsheets, AI, and workflow automation, and Tablepilot is my attempt to combine all these together into one tool. To my knowledge, there isn't an open-source tool quite like this. While you might be able to achieve something similar using platforms like Airtable or Notion, they are not open-source and may come with costs. On the other hand, tools like Dify or LangChain are powerful but often feel overengineered for simple table content generation case. Tablepilot, however, is designed to be simple yet powerful, making it perfect for generating table based data with ease.
