CS Demo Analyzer vs valab

CS Demo Analyzer is a free command-line tool for analyzing and exporting Counter-Strike 2 and CS:GO demo files. It produces CSV, JSON, or CSDM output, and an optional flag adds entity positions such as player and grenade locations. Users can force a demo source, with supported options including FACEIT, ESEA, ESL, and Valve. Developers can use the Go API to analyze a demo or analyze and export it. The @akiver/cs-demo-analyzer NPM module wraps the Go CLI and supplies TypeScript types and constants. The project uses the demoinfocs-golang parser, created by Markus W. and maintained by him and AkiVer. It is distributed under the MIT License, which permits use, modification, and distribution subject to its conditions. The linked CS Demo Manager companion application lists statistics, grenade finding, heatmaps, VAC tracking, video generation, downloads, search, and exports; that app can export XLSX or JSON or provide SQL access to its database. CS Demo Analyzer is intended for developers extracting data from Counter-Strike demos and supports Linux, macOS, Windows, and API use.

valab is a web service for analyzing VALORANT .vrf replay files. Uploads become browser playback, scouting reports, heatmaps, and statistics based on game data recorded in the replay rather than video estimates or a stats API. The viewer places all ten players on a map and shows their view angles, health, weapons, credits, abilities, and round events. Reports can cover you, teammates, or opponents, using every uploaded match in which a player appears. Regularly queued teammates are grouped automatically, while named stacks can be reviewed as one record. Metrics include opening duels, trades, clutches, headshot rates by gun and range, and round impact. The site checks replay builds against verified versions and flags unrecognized builds. Uploaded match data and reports stay private to the uploading account, with real identities removed before browser delivery. Original replay files are deleted after processing, while processed data remains until removed. A local inspector can read a .vrf entirely in the browser without uploading it.
