The Tiller Community has created dozens of free templates for spreadsheets powered by Tiller.

The easiest way to browse these is in the Tiller Community Templates gallery, where new templates are added regularly.

We thought it might be helpful to share a list of the top ten most popular templates for 2024 so far. “So far,” because the most popular templates change throughout the year.

This list looked different at the end of 2023, as people ran reports and created budgets for the new year ahead. And as tax season picks up, this list will change again.

We’ll update this list at the end of the quarter in March, and again at the beginning of July.

Note: “Tiller Community Solutions” indicates templates created by our team members, often @Randy.
