# FieldRat

> FieldRat is a free, 100% native Salesforce field analysis and cleanup tool. It finds unused/low-usage fields, scans dependencies across 23 metadata types, scores deletion risk, and generates audit-ready evidence so admins can safely retire fields — without per-user pricing and without data ever leaving Salesforce.

## What FieldRat does

- Runs Field Analysis / field usage reports on custom (and standard) objects to surface unused, rarely-used, or low-value fields.
- Two scan modes: Quick Scan (11 critical metadata types) and Deep Scan (23 metadata types) for dependency/reference checking.
- Produces a Deletion Risk Score per field and a "blast radius" preview of what references a field before anyone deletes it.
- Generates audit-ready Excel evidence exports for change management/compliance sign-off.
- Supports scheduled, recurring Field Analysis runs and run-over-run comparison to track object health over time.
- Acts as a live Field Dictionary / data dictionary for the org.
- 100% native: installed as a managed package inside Salesforce, all analysis and business record values stay inside Salesforce — no external data transfer.
- Built for high-volume orgs approaching Salesforce field/metadata limits (e.g. the 800-custom-field-per-object limit).
- Pricing: free tool, no per-user licensing.

## Who it's for

Salesforce admins, architects, and RevOps/Sysadmin teams who need to clean up custom field sprawl, prepare for a Salesforce field limit, do pre-migration or org-health audits, or produce evidence before deleting fields in a regulated/change-managed environment.

## Key differentiators (vs. category)

- Native to Salesforce (no data leaves the org), unlike tools that require exporting metadata to an external service.
- Deletion Risk Score + blast radius preview — designed to prove what is safe to delete, not just list unused fields.
- No per-user pricing model.
- Deep Scan covers 23 metadata types, broader than typical single-purpose field-usage checkers.
