Paste data copied from a PDF, email, website or CRM. Remove duplicates, stray spaces, blank rows and broken line breaks — then download a clean CSV for Excel.
The short answer
An Excel data cleaner removes the formatting problems that break formulas: leading and trailing spaces, duplicate rows, blank lines, non-printing characters and inconsistent capitalisation. Paste your data, choose the fixes, preview the result and download a clean CSV that opens directly in Excel.

Everything runs in your browser — the data is never uploaded. The download is UTF-8 CSV with a BOM, so Excel opens accents correctly. For repeatable cleaning, use Power Query: Data → Get Data → From Text/CSV.
Select the data, go to Data → Remove Duplicates, choose the columns that define a duplicate and confirm. This cleaner does the same job before the data enters Excel, and lets you compare case-insensitively.
In Excel, TRIM removes leading, trailing and repeated spaces, while CLEAN removes non-printing characters. Line breaks inside a cell need SUBSTITUTE(A1,CHAR(10)," "). This tool applies all three in one pass without formulas.
No. Cleaning runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is transmitted, which makes the tool safe for customer lists, payroll extracts and other confidential data.
A UTF-8 CSV with a byte-order mark, so Excel opens accented characters and non-Latin text correctly. Choose comma, semicolon or tab as the delimiter before downloading.
