In plain words

XLSX is a browser-based tool that scans Excel workbooks to identify hidden sheets, broken formulas, volatile functions, external links, and text stored as numbers. It pinpoints issues to exact cell locations without uploading files. The free version detects and locates problems, while the Pro version offers one-click fixes including unhiding content, removing links, and converting text to numbers, plus CSV exports and file previews.

Workbook Audit runs 54 checks on an Excel file: broken formulas, hidden sheets, external links, manual calculation, personal details. In your browser.

Workbook Audit runs 54 checks on your file and flags what Excel won’t warn you about: broken formulas, hidden sheets, links to other workbooks, manual calculation, and your name in the file’s details. Pro fixed three in one click: text converted to a number, the external link replaced by its value, and the Rates sheet unhidden. The broken reference and NOW() stay flagged for you to review. Every finding says why it matters and how to fix it in Excel. Pro does the fixing, scans the file again, and hands you a report for whoever gets it next. No daily limit and nothing uploaded. Every tool runs in your browser. Syntax, a worked example and the gotchas for 90+ Excel functions. One Excel…from xlsx.com

  • Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1.
