Show HN: Tool I created to covert tabular data to a 'pretty' table

Yesterday, my screenshots weren't working at all when sharing them in slack, and I couldn't find a tool out there that could take tabular data and convert it to an easy to navigate table w/ an option to download as a CSV file, so I made my own.

Let me know if you have any questions or comments!

It's also not clear how long the link is active, or that we are even supposed to share the link.

Also, hosting (open) data anonymously is a market niche (since pastebin have a 500kb size) but you may not want to become the anonymous data host for obvious reasons.

For example, from Philips 2018 annual report [0], I copy the income statement, and I get the below when I paste. I found it impossible to get this into Excel or any other table format, without writing a Python program for it. Your tool still made it as one column. If there's a way you can automatically detect the 3 numeric columns below, you can have a large audience of finance folk analyzing PDF documents.
