How do I convert TSV to JSON?

Paste your tab-separated data into the input panel. The first row is treated as column headers. The JSON array output appears instantly on the right.

TSV stands for Tab-Separated Values — a plain text format where each row is a line and columns are separated by tab characters. It is similar to CSV but uses tabs instead of commas.

Is the conversion done in the browser?

Yes, completely. No data is sent to any server.

TSV Format

Tab-Separated Values (TSV) is a plain-text table format exported by spreadsheet apps like Excel and Google Sheets:

Name	Age	City
Alice	30	London
Bob	25	Berlin

TSV vs CSV

TSV uses tab characters as delimiters; CSV uses commas
TSV avoids quoting issues when data contains commas (e.g., addresses)
Both formats are natively exported by Excel and Google Sheets
