I built CSV GB+ by Data.olllo, a local data tool that lets you open, clean, and export gigabyte-sized CSVs (even billions of rows) without writing code.

Most spreadsheet apps choke on big files. Coding in pandas or Polars works—but not everyone wants to write scripts just to filter or merge CSVs. CSV GB+ gives you a fast, point-and-click interface built on dual backends (memory-optimized or disk-backed) so you can process huge datasets offline.

Key Features: Handles massive CSVs with ease — merge, split, dedup, filter, batch export

Smart engine switch: disk-based "V Core" or RAM-based "P Core"

All processing is offline – no data upload or telemetry

Supports CSV, XLSX, JSON, DBF, Parquet and more

Designed for data pros, students, and privacy-conscious users

Would love feedback! I’m actively improving it based on real use cases.

It is 2025 and CSVs still dominate data interchange between organizations.

parquet is also popular.

Absolutely—CSVs are still everywhere, especially for simple interchange between teams and tools. I designed Data.olllo with that in mind.

That said, I also plan to add support for Parquet and other formats soon—definitely agree it's gaining traction for larger, structured datasets.
