Frequently Asked Questions

Is it safe to process sensitive JSONL files online?

Yes. Your JSONL data is processed entirely within your browser. No data is ever sent to a cloud server, making it impossible for your information to be stored, sold, or leaked. It's as secure as opening a file in a local desktop application.

Can I run SQL SELECT statements on my files?

Yes. This is a full SQL playground, not just a simple filter. You can write and execute complex SELECT statements on your local files using DuckDB SQL syntax.

What is the difference between JSON, JSONL, and NDJSON?

Standard JSON is a single large object, whereas JSONL and NDJSON store each record on a new line. They're more efficient for large datasets because they can be processed as a stream. Our local engine can load even big files without crashing your browser.

What technology powers this tool?

This local-first tool is powered by DuckDB-Wasm, a high-performance engine that runs natively in the browser via WebAssembly. This allows for complex SQL queries and data transformations at speeds comparable to native desktop software.

Is this utility suitable for enterprise-grade data?

Yes. The zero-server architecture ensures full data sovereignty for enterprise users. It meets high security standards because all processing is contained within your secure browser environment.

Do I need to sign up to use the JSONL tool?

No. You can access all browser-based features immediately without creating an account or providing an email address. Our goal is to make high-quality, private data tools accessible to everyone.

Privacy Note: This tool is safe for sensitive data because your files never leave your computer.
