Guide: step by step to your dashboard

Three steps to a result

The tools are built so no tutorial is needed. Still, the guides walk through every step in detail.

• Pick a tool – choose the right one of five.
• Load a file or enter values – everything stays local in your browser.
• Adjust and export – configure, preview, download.

A guide for every single tool

Each of the five tools has its own illustrated guide. It shows how to load an Excel file into the data dashboard and map columns, how to design a chart from scratch in the Mockup Studio, how the spreadsheet converter switches between formats, how Clean Studio removes typical errors, and how to merge, split or extract tables from PDFs.

Avoid common pitfalls

The guides also answer typical questions: how are German number formats detected correctly? Why does your data stay private? Which export is best for sharing, which for archiving? So you find the answer quickly without a long search.
