Row Zero for Students

Row Zero makes big data accessible in a familiar tool. Unlike legacy spreadsheets that slow down or crash with big data, Row Zero lets students and researchers analyze massive datasets. Easily open and edit big CSVs, Parquet, JSONL, etc. or connect directly to a data warehouse like Snowflake, Databricks, or Postgres

Row Zero's 350+ built-in spreadsheet functions let you write Excel-compatible formulas to calculate millions of rows instantly. Build dynamic pivot tables, charts, and dashboards to visualize data or use built-in features to quickly clean big datasets. You can also leverage Python to build custom spreadsheet functions or analyze data with Python packages like numpy, scipy, pandas, etc.

Row Zero makes it easy to open and analyze large public datasets from government agencies and research studies. These files are often too big to open in Excel and require complex tools or code to work with. Row Zero lets you open with a simple file import and analyze in a familiar spreadsheet. You can explore large datasets from the U.S. Census, Worldbank, and CMS in our free datasets tool or open any large file directly.

Row Zero makes it easy to publish large files and datasets. You can share publicly, with specific users, or within an organization. Accessing published datasets is as simple as clicking a link. When data is shared publicly, viewers do not need to login to view the spreadsheet. This makes Row Zero a great way to publish research data, share public data sets, or comply with open data records requirements.
