Work With Data Without Installing Anything

What Data Tools Are Available?

Our data tool collection includes file viewers (CSV Viewer with sortable columns, Excel Reader for .xlsx files), comparison tools (CSV Diff for comparing two CSV files side-by-side, Text Diff for line-by-line text comparison), and text analysis tools (Word Counter with character, sentence, and paragraph counts).

We also include content tools for developers and writers — the Markdown Preview renders your .md files with full syntax support including tables and code blocks, the Emoji Picker lets you find and copy emoji characters with search, and the Data Format Validator checks JSON, YAML, and XML files for syntax errors.
