Show HN: Simple List Merge Tool Built So You Don't Have To

4 points by dougSF70 ↗ HN
We spend a lot of time matching items in one list in another list...it's time consuming. Speaking with our fractional CFO, he said he also spends too much time match items in one list in another. So we built https://robomerge.com/ so you don't have too. It is free for now and allows for anonymous sessions created by your ip address, we will be allowing user registrations soon, and we also have an api in the works. Feedback welcome.

No idea what this means.

A use case for what we built is if you have a customer list from Salesforce and a customer list from Hubspot (or another CRM system) - these lists might have been entered manually to each application. As a result they are not 100% the same where they should be the same. Robomerge lets you reconcile one list against another accounting for misspellings, different abbreviations, etc. This is not an easy thing to do in Excel / Google Sheets so we built something to do it quickly, reliably and securely.
