🔒 100% Local — No Upload, No Dependencies

Reshape CSV and JSON Files on Your Own Machine, Without Uploading Data

A single command-line toolbox for the data wrangling tasks analysts hit every day — format conversion, splitting, merging, validation and sampling — running fully offline so confidential operational and financial data never reaches a third-party server.

Why Browser and Online Converters Keep Letting Analysts Down

Data files from real systems are large, inconsistently encoded and often confidential. Generic web tools are built for small, clean samples.

📤

Upload size and privacy limits

Online converters cap file size and require the upload, which is a compliance problem when the CSV contains customer records, transactions or employee data.

🧱

Broken headers after splitting

Naive split tools divide rows but drop or repeat the header on every shard, forcing manual cleanup before each chunk can be opened or imported.

🧪

Silent format errors

JSONL with one bad line or a CSV whose column count drifts midway often passes conversion and fails much later, inside the database import.

What It Does

The high-frequency operations data, ops and finance teams run on exported files, packaged into one local toolbox.

🔁

CSV to JSON and back

Convert CSV/Excel exports to JSON or JSONL using the header row as field names, and reverse JSON arrays back into clean CSV.

✂️

Header-aware splitting

Split oversized CSV by row count while preserving the header on every shard, sized for upload limits or parallel processing.

🧲

Shard merging

Recombine multiple split files back into one consistent dataset with a single command.

✔️

Batch validation

Check column-count consistency across rows and validate JSON/JSONL legality, producing a report that flags the exact bad lines.

🎲

Fast sampling

Pull random or first-N rows to inspect a huge file quickly without opening the entire dataset in a spreadsheet.

🔐

BOM and encoding safe

Handles the UTF-8 BOM that Excel exports add and runs with no external dependencies, file in and file out.

From Raw Export to Clean Data in Four Steps

Drop in your file

Point the toolbox at a CSV, JSON or JSONL export on your local machine; nothing is uploaded.

Pick the operation

Choose convert, split, merge, validate or sample with a single explicit command.

Run it offline

Processing happens locally with no dependencies or API calls, even on very large files.

Collect the output

Get consistently headed shards, validated JSON or a sample ready for import, analysis or sharing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does my data get uploaded anywhere?

No. The toolbox runs entirely on your local computer as a command-line utility with no network calls, so sensitive CSV and JSON data never leaves your machine.

Can it handle the BOM added by Excel CSV exports?

Yes. It detects and handles the UTF-8 byte-order mark that Excel adds, so the first column name is read correctly instead of carrying hidden characters.

How does splitting keep headers intact?

When you split a CSV by row count, every output shard automatically repeats the original header row, so each chunk opens and imports correctly on its own.

What does validation actually check?

It verifies that every CSV row has the expected number of columns and that JSON/JSONL content is legal, then reports the specific lines that fail instead of failing silently at import time.

Do I need Python packages or an API key?

No external dependencies and no API key. It runs with a local runtime and a single command, file in and file out.
