FAQ

Is my data safe?

Yes. The comparison runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your text is never sent to any server.

How does the diff algorithm work?

This tool uses a Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) algorithm to identify the minimal set of changes needed to transform one text into another.

Is there a size limit?

There is no fixed limit. Since processing happens in your browser, very large texts may be slower to compare. Most typical use cases work instantly.
