What do you want to compare?

Upload two tables with a header row. Match records by ID and compare field changes.

CSV File A
CSV File B

Upload both tables or load a sample to choose your matching keys.

A report you can actually check.

01

Choose a stable ID

Upload two CSV or Excel files. Match records using an ID or a combination of key columns.

02

Review what changed

Separate new, removed and changed records. Check before-and-after values and duplicate-key warnings.

03

Export the evidence

Download the CSV or Excel report. Keep your matching rules for the next comparison.

A comparison finds differences; it does not decide which source is correct. Resolve duplicate IDs and review matching rules before acting on a report.
