Text Diff

Compare two texts line by line — additions and removals highlighted instantly.

How to compare two texts

  1. Paste the original text on the left and the changed version on the right.
  2. Press Compare — removed lines show red with −, added lines show green with +.
  3. Use Swap sides to reverse the comparison direction.

Frequently asked questions

How are the texts compared?

Line by line, using the classic longest-common-subsequence algorithm — the same approach behind git diff. Pure additions, pure deletions and edits of a line are all detected.

Is my text sent to a server?

No. The comparison runs entirely in your browser — contract drafts, logs and private notes never leave your machine.

What do − and + mean?

− marks a line that exists only in the original (removed), + marks a line that exists only in the changed version (added). Unchanged context lines are shown dimmed.
