Can I paste the TSV directly into Excel?

Yes — copy the TSV output and paste it into Excel or Google Sheets. The data will split into columns automatically.

Is my data uploaded to a server?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your data never leaves your device.

What if my CSV uses semicolons instead of commas?

The parser auto-detects comma or semicolon delimiters. Tab-delimited input is also handled.

Can I do the reverse — TSV to CSV?

Yes — use the TSV to CSV Converter tool.

Why Convert CSV to TSV?

TSV is the native paste format for spreadsheet applications like Excel and Google Sheets. Converting CSV to TSV lets you paste data directly into spreadsheet cells without needing to use the import wizard.

Quote Handling

The CSV parser correctly handles quoted fields (including fields with embedded commas), escaped double quotes ("") and multi-line fields. The TSV output strips quotes since tabs are used as delimiters instead.
