Frequently Asked Questions
How does column-based deduplication work?
The tool parses your CSV headers and inspects the selected column (such as Email, User ID, or Phone). If two rows share the same column value, the duplicate is purged while keeping the first (or last) occurrence.
Can I deduplicate simple plain text lists?
Yes! Switch to "Deduplicate Entire Line" mode to remove duplicate lines from email lists, IP logs, or plain text notes.
Are my confidential customer spreadsheets uploaded to any server?
No! 100% of parsing and deduplication executes locally in your browser memory via client-side PapaParse and JavaScript Sets. 0 bytes are uploaded.
Can I choose whether to keep the first or last duplicate?
Yes! Use the "Duplicate to Keep" selector to preserve either the first occurrence or the latest updated occurrence.
