Split Sheets
Split an Excel workbook into one XLSX file per sheet, downloaded as a ZIP.
About Split Sheets
Split Sheets takes one multi-tab Excel workbook and produces a separate .xlsx file for each sheet, delivered as a single ZIP download. Use it when a workbook bundles several distinct datasets and you need each as its own file — for distribution, version control, or per-team handoff. The split runs in your browser, so the workbook never leaves your device.

Frequently asked questions
How is the output delivered?
As a single ZIP archive containing one .xlsx file per sheet in the source workbook.
How are the output files named?
Each file corresponds to a sheet, so the sheet names drive the file names inside the ZIP.
What input does it accept?
A modern .xlsx workbook (OpenXML spreadsheet format).
Is my workbook uploaded?
No. Splitting happens locally in the browser, and the ZIP is built on your device.
What if the workbook has only one sheet?
You'll get a ZIP with a single file — the operation still completes cleanly.
