FAQ
- Is this character-level or line-level?
- Line-level. Each line is either unchanged, added, or deleted — no inline highlighting within a changed line.
- Do you save the text I compare?
- No, both texts are processed entirely in your browser and are never sent to or stored on any server.
- Can I compare text from files?
- Yes, you can paste content from any file; the tool works with plain text copied into the input fields.
