An Excel to JSON converter parses spreadsheet files and outputs structured JSON data. This tool uses the SheetJS library to read XLSX, XLS, and CSV files entirely in your browser — your data never leaves your device.
The tool supports multi-sheet workbooks with a tab selector to switch between sheets. Each sheet is converted to a JSON array of objects, where the first row becomes the property keys. You can adjust the JSON indentation for readability and view row/column statistics.
