Editorial interest 81/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A browser-based tool that compares Excel or CSV files by a unique ID, showing added, removed, and changed records without relying on row order.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-26 issue.
For
People reviewing revised inventory or order spreadsheets
Worth noticing
Blank or duplicate IDs stop the comparison; the tool will not guess which records correspond.

Field notes

The workflow requires a worksheet and identifier column in each file; headers must be non-empty and unique, and fully empty rows are ignored. The page gives a worked inventory example and explains that moving a row does not count as an edit. Its stated limits include one million combined cells, and malformed or unsupported files are rejected.
