GridPick - Web Table to Excel, CSV, JSON par Jessy Shen

GridPick turns any table on a web page into something you can actually work with.

Click the toolbar icon and it lists every table it can see on the page. Pick one,
and you can copy it straight into Excel or Google Sheets, save it as CSV, or open
it to choose columns and export to Excel, JSON or Markdown.

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT

No row limits. The free version exports the whole table, however many rows it has.
Ten rows or fifty thousand, same result.

It finds grids other tools miss. Modern web apps rarely use real markup.
GridPick reads ARIA grids too, so the div-based data grids that React, Angular,
AG Grid, MUI DataGrid and similar libraries render come out properly. It also
reads tables inside iframes and inside open shadow roots.

Merged cells come out right. Rowspan and colspan are expanded into a proper
rectangular grid, so a merged header does not shove every column one place to the
left. You choose whether a merged value repeats down its rows or leaves blanks.

Nothing is uploaded. The whole conversion happens inside your browser. There is no
account, no sign-in, no server, no analytics. The extension only reads a page when
you click its icon, and only that page.

It warns you when a grid is only half loaded. Tables that stream rows in as you
scroll only keep the visible ones in the page. GridPick tells you how many rows are
actually there versus how many the grid claims, instead of quietly giving you 50
rows out of 2,000.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Copy to the clipboard, ready to paste into Excel or Google Sheets
• Save as CSV, with a comma, semicolon, tab or pipe separator
• Save as a real .xlsx workbook, headers in bold, numbers stored as numbers
• Save as JSON, one object per row, using the table's own headers as keys
• Save as a Markdown table
• Export every table on the page into one workbook, one sheet each
• Tick and untick columns before exporting
• Filter rows before exporting
• Clean numbers for spreadsheets: strip currency symbols, thousands separators and
  percent signs so Excel reads them as numbers
• Pull out link URLs into their own column
• Read tables inside iframes

WHERE PEOPLE USE IT

Pulling share prices, fund holdings and financial statements into a spreadsheet.
Copying league tables and sports statistics. Getting figures out of admin panels,
CRM and ERP systems that have no export button. Lifting reference tables off
Wikipedia and documentation sites. Saving analytics and search ranking tables for
a report. Anywhere you would otherwise select, copy, paste, and then spend ten
minutes putting the columns back where they belong.

BUILT FOR SPREADSHEETS, NOT AGAINST THEM

CSV files carry a BOM so Excel reads UTF-8 without mangling accents and Chinese
characters. Cells that begin with =, +, - or @ are neutralised so a spreadsheet
cannot execute something a web page put there. Numbers with leading zeros stay text, so
postcodes and IDs survive. Sheet names are trimmed and de-duplicated to what Excel
accepts.

FREE AND PRO

Free covers copying to the clipboard, CSV export, column picking, row filtering and
merged-cell handling. It works on any table on the page, including div grids, with
no cap on rows or columns.

Pro adds Excel, JSON and Markdown export, exporting every table on the page as
one workbook, number cleaning and link extraction. One payment, no subscription.

PRIVACY

GridPick asks for activeTab rather than access to all your sites, which means it
can only read a page at the moment you click its icon. Table contents never leave
your browser. The single network request it can ever make is checking a Pro licence
key with the payment provider, and only when you type one in.<table>
