String Scout — Localization CSV Checker
A downloadable tool
Check your game’s string table for missing translations, duplicate keys, and mismatched simple placeholders — locally in your browser.
Free sample results preview
Download the free demo below to inspect two synthetic CSV samples, their generated findings, and an English HTML walkthrough before you buy. This is a static results preview; it cannot analyze your files. The full offline checker remains US$5.
Open the supplied HTML file, choose your CSV, and select key, source, and target language columns. Review findings and export a CSV report with source line references. Your original file is not uploaded, translated, or changed.
Included in the full tool
One self-contained offline HTML utility, English instructions, and two synthetic English/Korean/French sample files. Checks blank keys, duplicate keys, blank source/target text, and simple placeholder names and counts such as {player_name} and {0}. Unsupported brace syntax generates warnings and unverified comparisons.
Supported files
One UTF-8 CSV at a time, up to 2 MiB, 5,000 data rows, and 30 columns. Comma, tab, and semicolon separators; quoted and multiline cells. English interface. Tested in desktop Chromium.
Limitations
Structural checks only: no translation-quality, grammar, text-overflow, markup, or game-engine validation. ICU, escaped double braces, and format specifiers require manual review. Printf tokens such as %s and dollar tokens are not checked. Zero errors does not mean all comparisons were verified. Keys are compared exactly, including spaces and case. No corrected translation file is produced.
Screenshots and samples contain synthetic data.
