Why do duplicates happen?

You might have the same person in multiple groups, or you might have chatted with them separately. When you do a bulk export, this can result in the same number appearing 5-10 times.

Manual Cleaning is Hard

In Excel, you can use "Remove Duplicates", but you have to be careful not to delete different people who share a similar name.

WaVault's Auto-Dedupe

WaVault solves this before you export.

  • It checks the unique phone number ID.
  • It merges data if found in multiple places.
  • It ensures that your final Excel/CSV file has unique, clean rows only.

This saves you hours of spreadsheet cleanup time.
