Your inputs are processed locally. Review the method and limitations before relying on the estimate.

Upload a CSV file (maximum 3 MB) or paste its text below. Nothing is transmitted to our server. For spreadsheet CSV exports, formula defense may change raw cell text; use JSON when exact data preservation is essential.

Browser processing is bounded to 3 MB per file and at most 15,000 parsed CSV rows. Download the output to keep a copy; nothing is saved here.

Worked example

Extract 500 data rows from a larger 2,000-row file.

Frequently asked questions
