TSV (Tab-Separated Values) files are one of the most common data exchange formats, especially in bioinformatics, data science, and database exports. Unlike CSV, tabs in data values don't need escaping, making TSV simpler to parse. This tool lets you manipulate TSV columns without writing code.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between TSV and CSV?

TSV uses tab characters as delimiters; CSV uses commas. TSV is generally easier to parse because tabs rarely appear in text data, so no quoting is needed. CSV requires quoting any field that contains a comma.

How do I convert TSV to CSV?

Use the delimited column tools with tab as input delimiter and comma as output delimiter, or simply paste your TSV and replace tabs with commas using the whitespace converter.
