Status
The underlying engine is stable and has been used inside other tools on this site. The standalone version is in active development. The rules editor for non-technical users is being refined based on feedback from the teams piloting it.
Why it exists
The VNE tool solves one specific shape of cleanup: name matching. The Workbook Cleaner is the generalist. Different rules, different column types, same end goal. A single analysis-ready master file.
Early access
If your team is waiting on a tool like this, get in touch. Early-access users shape the rules editor and the output format.
