    3 Ways to Input CSV Data

    Load CSV or TSV data by selecting a file, dragging it onto the page, or pasting delimited cells. CSV rows stay in the browser for all three methods.

    Click to select

    Click the file area to open your browser's file picker, then choose a .csv or .tsv file from your device. AskCSV reads the supported delimited file locally in the browser.

    Drag and drop

    Drag a .csv or .tsv file onto the upload area. This uses the same local browser-processing path as file selection.

    Paste from the clipboard

    Copy delimited rows from a website, Excel, Google Sheets, Numbers, or another spreadsheet tool, then paste them into AskCSV. Pasting cells is supported; directly opening an Excel .xlsx workbook is not.

    What stays local

    CSV or TSV rows, questions, SQL, results, charts, and chats are not sent to AskCSV or a cloud AI provider. Saved datasets and chats can remain in this browser until you delete them. The app, DuckDB assets, and on-device AI model still use network downloads, and optional account, billing, analytics, or advertising services follow the choices described in the Privacy Policy.

    The first analysis may download about 1.8 GB for the on-device model. WebGPU support and performance vary by browser and device.
