Tidyset app logo Tidysetdeterministic data janitor

Turn messy data into clean data — deterministically, offline.

Tidyset is a focused data-cleaning workspace for CSV, TSV, Excel and JSON: reviewable suggestions for whitespace, inconsistent labels and missing values, column profiling with histograms, clustering, formulas, global find & replace — and every action becomes a reversible, reusable recipe.

Tidyset workspace showing a dataset with smart cleaning suggestions, column profiling and the recipe of applied steps.

No black boxes. Every fix is a visible step.

Tidyset never guesses silently: it proposes fixes you review, shows a diff of what changed, and records every action as a step in a recipe you can undo, audit and re-run on next month's export.

What it does

Professional cleaning tools without the cloud.

The workflow of a data janitor, in one calm desktop app.

1

Reviewable smart suggestions

Whitespace, inconsistent labels, missing values and type issues — proposed, previewed, and applied only when you approve.

2

Column profiling

Distributions, histograms, uniqueness and null counts for every column at a glance.

3

Clustering and fuzzy matching

Group near-identical labels ('NYC', 'New York City', 'new york') and normalize them in one action.

4

Formulas and transforms

Derive columns, split and merge fields, and reshape data with visible, replayable operations.

5

Global find & replace

Across the whole dataset with diff highlighting before you commit.

6

A quality score dashboard

Watch the dataset's health improve as the recipe grows.
