Order IDs and ZIP codes kept as text, dates read day-first, amounts typed as currency.

How it works

  1. Upload the CSV

    Drop in a CSV, TSV or text export from any system. Chatly detects the delimiter, the encoding and whether the first row is a header.

  2. Check the column types

    Each column gets a proposed type, text, number, date or currency, with a preview. Fix anything it read wrong before the conversion runs.

  3. Download the .xlsx

    You get an Excel workbook with typed columns, a frozen header row, filters and sensible widths. Ask for a pivot or a chart and it goes into the same file.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my CSV look wrong when I open it in Excel?

Excel guesses each column's type on open, which strips leading zeros, reformats long numbers and misreads dates. Chatly sets the types explicitly before writing the .xlsx.

Is the CSV to Excel converter free?

Yes. There is a free plan available, and converting a CSV to .xlsx works on it.

Does it work with semicolon or tab separated files?

Yes. The delimiter is detected automatically, including semicolon, tab and pipe, and you can override it if the file is unusual.

Can I convert several CSV files at once?

Yes. Upload multiple files and choose one tab per file or a single merged sheet joined on a shared column.

Can I convert Excel back to CSV?

Yes. Any sheet in Chatly exports to CSV as well as .xlsx, with the encoding and delimiter you choose.
