Remove duplicate rows from a CSV

Turn on Deduplicate and repeated rows collapse to their first occurrence. Detection runs after whitespace trimming, so two rows that differ only by a trailing space are still treated as duplicates.

A badge shows how many rows were removed, and the export contains exactly what you see in the preview. The whole operation is client-side.

Frequently asked questions

How are duplicates defined?
Rows are duplicates when every column matches exactly. Comparison happens after trimming.
Which copy is kept?
The first occurrence; later copies are removed.
Can I deduplicate on one column only?
Not in this release. You can hide other columns to compare more narrowly, but full-row comparison is the default.
Is the row order preserved?
Yes, the surviving rows keep their original order.
