OfficeHero

Spreadsheets, Automation & Mail-Merge Simulator

Master the productivity skills every workplace runs on. Write real spreadsheet formulas against live grids, chain no-code automations from triggers to actions, run personalized mail-merge campaigns, and clean up messy datasets โ€” duplicates, mangled phone numbers, and broken dates โ€” before they poison the reports.

Built for

Grade 9โ€“12 students, first-job seekers, and anyone who wants the spreadsheet and automation skills offices actually hire for.

Key features

๐Ÿ“Š

Live Formula Engine

Six tiered challenges with a real formula evaluator โ€” SUM, AVERAGE, IF, SUMIFS, VLOOKUP, and INDEX/MATCH, complete with the #N/A and #DIV/0! errors real spreadsheets throw.

๐Ÿ”—

No-Code Automations

Build five workflows from block palettes: triggers, actions, and condition blocks with TRUE/FALSE branch routing โ€” the way modern integration platforms actually work.

โœ‰๏ธ

Mail-Merge Campaigns

Connect data to templates with merge tags, filter to the exact audience, and preview every generated email โ€” plus the anti-spam and privacy rules of bulk communication.

๐Ÿงน

Data Hygiene Drills

Diagnose and repair four messy imports: duplicate rows, phone numbers in four formats, impossible dates like Feb 30, and a final everything-at-once cleanup combo.

๐Ÿ“–

4-Track Academy

40 quiz questions across spreadsheets, automation, mail-merge, and data hygiene โ€” each with a full explanation, so wrong answers teach too.

๐Ÿ…

Badges & Certificate

Earn Formula Guru, Workflow Integrator, Merge Master, and Data Janitor badges, climb the leaderboard, and unlock a completion certificate at 100%.

Built for the classroom

Completely self-contained sandbox โ€” no internet required when run locally in the classroom.

Educational simulation only โ€” all customers, services, emails, and payments are fictional. No real messages are ever sent.

๐Ÿ“š Take-home homework

Every session ends with a quick 15โ€“20 min real-world task that turns the simulator into a habit โ€” research and observation only, no accounts or spending.

This week's challenge

Build a personal mini-budget sheet with SUM, AVERAGE, SUMIFS, and an IF budget check โ€” on your own real (or realistic) numbers.

Four formulas, zero hand-typed totals
Spot one automatable task in your week
Find a duplicate contact in your phone

๐Ÿ”’ Privacy-first โ€” realistic fake numbers are fine; nobody has to disclose real spending.
