  3. Review the visually highlighted differences, showing additions and deletions.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference from a developer diff?

None at the core — it is the same algorithm, presented for writing and documents rather than code.

Can it compare long documents?

Yes, though very large texts are best chunked. The comparison is line-based.

Does my text stay private?

Yes — everything runs locally in your browser.
