Data Forge

Offline deterministic merge and cleaning for messy spreadsheet workflows.

A local, auditable utility for teams that need repeatable spreadsheet merge, cleanup, reconciliation, and review without uploading sensitive files to the cloud.

The week before the model starts

Most analytical work does not begin with modeling. It begins with messy files, vendor mismatches, broken headers, duplicate rows, missing cells, and fragile notebook glue. Data Forge is built for that recurring preparation layer: the workflow teams repeat every month but rarely trust completely.

What it does

Ranked merge

Primary files win. Backup sources fill gaps. Disagreements are logged instead of silently overwritten.

Shape-aware cleaning

Supports panel data, time series, and wide record tables so country-year, entity-time, job, company, SKU, and vendor tables are not forced into the wrong structure.

Local execution

Runs on the user's machine. No cloud upload required.

Audit artifacts

Every run produces a cleaned CSV, cleaning report, and manifest.

Deterministic repeatability

Identical inputs and settings produce identical output hashes.

Private evaluation

Controlled paid evaluations for qualified teams. No source access.

Built for

Financial data operations

Recurring vendor and internal file stacks.

Vendor reconciliation

Entity-time keys preserved.

Job, company, SKU, record tables

Monthly spreadsheet workflows

Same recipe, same hash next month.

Air-gapped review

Desktop workflow for sensitive environments.

Private 7-Day Evaluation

Run Data Forge on your machine with your files (or anonymized stand-ins). You keep every artifact. One week to prove whether a license is worth it — not a free download, not a sales demo you watch us perform.

Enterprise license

Production deploy after evaluation or direct qualification. Written quote on order form — tied to multi-year savings on your side.
