I had a problem last week: I wanted to filter and compare records between two CSV files. It was possible to do this using Numbers (OSX), and would be possible in Excel, but it was a pain... so I made a tool to do it.


You can see a demo here:
View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9GkQbttmIQ


And a super simple landing page here: CSV Data Processing Tool

It's pretty neat and it seems like it, or something similar to it, should be useful to other people.

I've not done something like this before - my background is teaching guitar.

So my questions are:
1. Could this be useful to others?
2. How would I got about promoting it to get some beta testers and refine it? I looked into a few Reddit communities, /r/logistics /r/smallbusiness but they all ban self-promotion

It's a very very barebones project at the moment

thanks!
