Fix Broken CSV Files

CSV files look simple.

Rows.
Columns.
Values separated by commas.

Until one file does not open correctly.

Wrong delimiter.
Broken quotes.
Shifted columns.
Encoding problems.
A messy export from another system.

Then the “simple” CSV becomes the file that blocks everything else.

CSV Repair is built for that moment.

CSV Repair helps you inspect and repair CSV files before importing them into another app, database, spreadsheet, or workflow.

Open a file, check how the data is interpreted, fix common structure problems, and export a cleaner CSV.

The goal is simple: make the CSV readable again.

CSV Repair is part of Beaver Tools, a collection of small Mac utilities focused on solving one clear problem at a time.

CSV Repair is available on the Mac App Store:
