Convert GEDCOM (.ged) genealogy files exported from Ancestry, MyHeritage, or FamilySearch into structured Excel spreadsheets and CSV tables directly in your browser. 100% private in-browser converter.
Detailed side-by-side format architecture for GED Document (.ged) and Comma-Separated Values (.csv). Every conversion executes strictly within isolated browser memory without network transit.
Drag and drop your .ged file onto the working surface or use the system file dialog. File magic bytes are verified locally on device.
Select a quality preset (Lossless, Visually Lossless, Balanced, Smallest) or adjust advanced encoding switches in the options panel.
Click CONVERT to execute local WebAssembly compilation. Save the finished .csv directly to local storage, or stage it for chaining.
Prefer local shell scripting? Run this standard POSIX command on your machine to achieve equivalent transcoding without a web interface:
# Convert GED to CSV locally
pandoc input.ged -o output.csvWorking with files across multiple web pages? The official convrtr Chrome Extension adds native Side Panel docking, right-click context menu media extraction, and visible viewport capture. Powered by the same zero-upload client-side WebAssembly engine.
GEDCOM (Genealogical Data Communication) is the universal open standard for exchanging genealogical information between family history software (such as Ancestry.com, FamilySearch, MyHeritage, Gramps, and RootsMagic).
Dedicated genealogy programs and websites often require expensive monthly subscriptions or specialized desktop software. Converting your family tree to CSV allows you to open, search, filter, and analyze ancestors in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or Notion databases.
Yes. convrtr cross-references GEDCOM individual records (INDI) with family records (FAM) to automatically populate father, mother, and spouse names alongside each ancestor's vital dates and birth/death locations.
Never. All parsing and CSV spreadsheet generation happen 100% locally inside your web browser memory. No names, birth dates, or living relative details ever leave your device.
GED Document (GED) and Comma-Separated Values (CSV) serve distinct roles across the digital workflow. Converting to CSV provides optimized compatibility, modern compression efficiency, or standardized playback across web browsers, operating systems, and media production environments.
The output format (CSV) is inherently lossless or supports lossless operation. Your original visual or audio fidelity is mathematically preserved without quantization artifacts.
Never. convrtr is architected with a strict zero-upload model. All processing, decoding, decompression, and encoding happen 100% locally on your machine using sandboxed WebAssembly and Web Workers. Your data never touches an external server, database, or analytics collector.
You can execute this conversion locally via command-line utilities such as ffmpeg, cwebp, or ImageMagick. For example: see the developer terminal recipe provided in the technical specifications dossier above. convrtr provides the identical local-first capability directly inside your browser without installing CLI packages.
Yes. You can drop multiple .ged files into the instrument to process them concurrently in browser Web Workers, or click 'Open in Master Studio' to queue mixed formats, configure individual targets, and export as a single ZIP archive.
Extract individuals, dates, birthplaces, and family relationships from GEDCOM genealogical files into CSV spreadsheets without uploading sensitive ancestry data to the cloud.
