Questions & Answers

As answered by people managing TableRune.
  1. What makes TableRune unique?

    TableRune never uploads your data. Opening, cleaning, reshaping and charting a file all happen on your own computer, inside the browser you already have. That is not a privacy policy, it is how the product is built: there is no upload step to opt out of.

    For anyone working under a confidentiality or data-handling agreement, that removes the question of where the client's data went. It also means there is no upload cap: files of up to 500,000 rows on the free plan and 10 million on Pro, limited only by your plan and your computer's memory.

    Every change is recorded as a step you can read, undo, save and run again on next month's version of the same file.

  2. Why should a person choose TableRune over its competitors?

    Against cloud spreadsheet and data tools, your file simply never leaves your machine, so the confidentiality question never comes up.

    Against Excel, TableRune is built for the files that make Excel slow or that it cannot open at all, up to 10 million rows on Pro, and every cleanup is a saved step you can rerun on the next file instead of redoing it by hand.

    Against local desktop data tools, there is nothing to install, which matters when your work laptop is managed by IT. Everything works from simple menus with no code to write, and there is a Team tier with central seat management.

  3. How would you describe the primary audience of TableRune?

    Solo analysts and small firms, roughly one to fifty people: financial and research analysts, accountants and consultants. The common thread is that they handle confidential client data in files too big for Excel to work with comfortably, and they are not allowed to upload that data to a cloud tool.

    A secondary audience is anyone who simply does not want their spreadsheets sitting on someone else's server.

  4. What's the story behind TableRune?

    TableRune started from a narrow observation: the people holding the most sensitive data often have the weakest tools for big files. Excel slows to a crawl or refuses the file, and the convenient web tools that can handle it ask you to upload it first, which a confidentiality agreement does not allow.

    So we built a workspace that runs in the browser but does all of its work on your own computer, so the convenience of a web tool does not cost you custody of the data. Every cleanup became a recorded step from the start, so the work can be checked, undone and repeated on the next file.
