ModelMint vs TTS Turbo Macros
TTS Turbo Macros, from Training The Street, is a well-known keyboard-shortcut and formatting pack that includes a precedent tracer and color schemes. ModelMint overlaps on tracing and color but leans harder into auditing and safe sharing. Here is an honest look at where each one fits.
Shortcuts and formatting vs audit and ship
TTS Turbo Macros is built around speed: a deep library of keyboard shortcuts plus consistent formatting and color schemes that match how banking models are styled. It also ships a precedent tracer. If you want to fly through formatting and cell navigation, that is its strength.
ModelMint is narrower and aimed at the audit-clean-ship loop. It traces formulas, finds dependents and hardcodes, scrubs defined names, and prepares or sends workbooks. Color Coder and Format Cycler cover styling, but the product is not a full shortcut suite.
- TTS strength: broad shortcut library and banking-standard formatting.
- ModelMint strength: auditing, hardcode and link cleanup, and safe handoff.
Side-by-side
TTS publishes a precedent tracer and color schemes, and its shortcut breadth is greater than ModelMint's. ModelMint adds dedicated hardcode and external-link tools plus sharing.

Pricing and trial
TTS Turbo Macros is a per-user annual subscription with a free trial, but the price is not published, so you request it. The trial is a real advantage if you want to try before you commit.
ModelMint lists its pricing openly at $10/month or $89/year and offers a monthly plan you can cancel anytime. ModelMint does not currently offer a free trial, so the monthly plan is the low-risk way to evaluate it.
Can they coexist?
Yes. If you already rely on TTS for shortcuts and formatting muscle memory, ModelMint slots in for the audit and sharing steps without conflicting. They target different habits.
If you are choosing one and your main pain is risky workbooks and messy handoffs rather than typing speed, ModelMint is the closer fit.
Formula Trace

Does ModelMint replace the TTS shortcut library?
Not fully. TTS has a broader keyboard-shortcut library. ModelMint covers tracing, hardcodes, color, and sharing rather than a full shortcut suite, so heavy shortcut users may prefer TTS for that part.
Which has a free trial?
TTS Turbo Macros offers a free trial. ModelMint does not currently, but its monthly plan at $10 with cancel-anytime serves a similar low-risk purpose.
Does ModelMint find hardcoded numbers and external links?
Yes. Find Hardcodes flags constants buried in formulas, and Hardcode Links converts external workbook links to values. TTS does not publish equivalents.
