What we sell
Grid Export Available
Copies data tables out of web applications and into Excel, Google Sheets, or a CSV file.
Existing table exporters read the HTML <table> tag. Most
business software no longer uses it. Salesforce list views, Workday reports,
admin dashboards and React data grids build tables out of layered
<div> elements, and the large ones only keep the rows you can
currently see — scroll down and the earlier rows are discarded by the page.
That is why the usual tools return an empty file, or the first thirty rows of a
four thousand row report.
Grid Export recognises a table by how it is laid out rather than which tag it uses, follows it as it scrolls, and reassembles the whole thing in the right order. It then cleans up what it finds: currency symbols and thousands separators become real numbers, footnote markers are dropped.
$14 one-time · not a subscription
The free version copies any table it can find to your clipboard, with no row limit. The paid version follows grids that discard rows as you scroll, reassembles the whole thing in order, and saves it as a CSV file.
Install Grid Export from the Chrome Web Store — free. The paid tier is $14 here, once.
How it works
- Runs locally. The extension reads the page already open in front of you. Your table data is never transmitted to us or to anyone else, because there is no server to transmit it to.
- Minimal access. It asks for permission to read the current tab when you click the button, and nothing more. It cannot see pages you have not pointed it at.
- Bought once. Payment is handled by Stripe. We never see or store your card details.
