What is this tool?

Text Diff Checker compares two blocks of text line by line and highlights exactly what changed — added lines in green, removed lines in red — using the same longest-common-subsequence approach used by version control tools. Everything is computed instantly in your browser.

Common uses

  • Reviewing changes between two drafts of a document
  • Comparing two versions of code, config or data

FAQ

Does this compare word by word or line by line?

The comparison works line by line, which is the clearest way to see structural changes in most text.

Is there a limit on how much text I can compare?

There's no hard limit, but very large texts may take a moment longer since the comparison runs in your browser.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No, both texts are compared entirely locally in your browser and never leave your device.
