Chrome extension — Manifest V3

You can see the table. You just can't have it.

PDF reports, screenshots, legacy dashboards — the Table Snap Chrome extension turns any table visible in your browser into clean CSV. One drag, flagged cells to review, done.

You're on the list. We'll email you at launch.

At a glance

Problem

Data you can see but can't select: PDFs, screenshots, old dashboards. Retyping wastes hours; blind OCR slips silent errors into your spreadsheet.

Input

Any region you drag over in Chrome — a PDF page, an image, a video frame, a dashboard

Output

Clean CSV or clipboard table · column types preserved · low-confidence cells flagged for one-pass review

Data handling

Only the dragged region is captured · sent over TLS, deleted after processing · never used for training

Time to value

Under 60 seconds per table

Price

Free: 10 tables / month
Pro: $7/mo

What it handles

Real tables are messy. These are the cases blind OCR gets wrong — and the ones Table Snap is built around.

Structure

Layout that breaks naive parsers.

Merged cells
Spanned headers and grouped rows are un-merged into rectangular, analysis-ready data
Multi-line cells
Wrapped text stays in one cell instead of spilling into phantom rows
Header detection
Header rows recognized and kept as CSV header; footnote markers (*, †) stripped from values, kept as notes
Values

Numbers that mean what they say.

Number formats
1,234.56 vs 1.234,56 · ¥ and full-width digits · % · negative-in-parentheses (123) → -123, all normalized per column
Column types
Numbers, dates, currency, and text are typed per column so Excel and Sheets don't mangle them on paste
Confidence flags
Blurry or ambiguous cells (0 vs O, 1 vs l) are highlighted for you to confirm — never silently guessed
Sources

If it renders in a tab, it can be snapped.

PDFs
Any PDF open in Chrome; Pro batches the same layout across pages (bank statements, monthly reports) into one CSV
Anything visible
Screenshots, dashboards without export buttons, docs sites, video frames

What extraction looks like

Sample output — illustrative, not a real customer's data.

How it works

  1. Drag over the table

    Click the extension icon and select the region — in a PDF, a screenshot, any tab. Only that region is captured.

  2. Review flagged cells

    The parsed table appears with low-confidence cells highlighted. Fix the two or three that need eyes; everything else is already clean.

  3. Export

    Download CSV, copy as a spreadsheet-ready table, or pipe straight into Google Sheets. Pro keeps your extraction history.

Questions

How accurate is the extraction?

Instead of promising a percentage, Table Snap shows its work: every cell gets a confidence level, and low-confidence cells are highlighted for you to confirm or correct before export. You review three flagged cells, not three hundred — and errors never slip through silently.

What permissions does the extension ask for?

Capture works through Chrome's active-tab permission: it can only see a tab when you click the Table Snap icon on that tab, and only the region you drag over is captured. It cannot read your tabs in the background, and it requests no access to browsing history.

Does my data leave my machine?

The selected image region is sent over TLS to our extraction API, processed, and deleted — it is not stored after the response and not used for training. Nothing else on your screen is captured, only the region you drag over.

Does it work on PDFs?

Yes. Any PDF you can open in Chrome works — drag over the table on the page. Pro adds batch mode: extract the same table layout across a multi-page PDF (think monthly statements) into one CSV.

What about Japanese and other non-Latin tables?

Japanese is fully supported, including full-width digits, ¥ amounts, and mixed JP/EN headers. CJK, Latin, and common European number formats (1.234,56 vs 1,234.56) are handled at launch.

Why not just paste the screenshot into ChatGPT?

You can — and sometimes it works. But a chat reply gives you no per-cell confidence, silently invents values when the image is blurry, loses column types, and takes a prompt-copy-paste round trip every time. Table Snap is one drag, a review pass over flagged cells only, and a clean CSV — every time, the same way.

Which browsers does it support?

Chrome at launch (Manifest V3). It installs and runs on other Chromium browsers like Edge and Brave, and full support for them is on the roadmap after launch.

When does it launch?

Early access ships within a few weeks of this waitlist validating demand, followed by Chrome Web Store review. Signups are invited in order, and founding pricing is locked for your first year. If we decide not to build it, you get one honest email saying so.
