Octo connects to your sheet and cleans it on command: standardize formats, remove duplicates, fix text-vs-number problems, and trim blank rows — in plain English, no formulas or scripts.
Add Octo to Chrome — freeReal data is rarely tidy. Formats drift ((555) 123-4567 next to 555.123.4567), duplicates creep in, numbers get stored as text, blank rows break your sorting, and stray spaces quietly wreck your lookups. Cleaning it by hand — or with stacked REGEXREPLACE formulas — is the slowest part of any spreadsheet job.
Describe the fix in plain English and Octo does it across the whole column or sheet:
Phone numbers, dates, and categories forced into one consistent style.
You: "standardize the phone column to (555) 123-4567"De-dupe rows by any column — even when the rest of the row differs.
You: "remove duplicate rows based on the email column"Turn numbers-stored-as-text back into real numbers so formulas work.
You: "convert column D to real numbers"Strip extra spaces, fix capitalization, and clear blank rows.
You: "trim spaces and fix the capitalization in column B"Every one of these is doable by hand — here's the shortcut. (Our guides cover the manual method if you'd rather do it yourself.)
| Cleaning job | The manual way | With Octo |
|---|---|---|
| Standardize phone numbers | REGEXREPLACE + TEXT formulas | "standardize the phone column" |
| Remove empty rows | Filter, sort, or a script | "remove the empty rows" |
| Remove duplicates | Data ▸ Data cleanup ▸ Remove duplicates | "remove duplicate rows by email" |
| Fix text-vs-number | Wrap in VALUE(), reformat | "convert this column to numbers" |
Describe the outcome; Octo handles the REGEX, VALUE, and cleanup steps.
