Hot take: an AI tool saved my week of spreadsheet hell

Last Tuesday I had to clean up a mess of 2,000 customer records from our old CRM. I spent like 3 hours manually fixing typos and duplicate entries. Then my buddy told me to try this free AI thing that spots mismatched data automatically. I gave it a shot and it flagged 47 errors I totally missed in like 5 minutes. Honestly I felt dumb for not trying it sooner. The tool even suggested corrections for weird address formats and phone numbers. Has anyone else found a specific AI plugin that handles messy data without needing to code everything?

Three hours of manual data entry is barely a problem lol.

Honestly I used to think the same way but then I had to do data entry for like 6 hours straight with no breaks and yeah no that changes a person real fast lol
