FAQ

What algorithm does this tool use?

The tool runs the Myers Diff Algorithm entirely in your browser. Myers diff is the standard algorithm used by GNU diff and most version-control systems — it finds the shortest edit script between two sequences.

Is my text sent to a server?

No. All comparison logic runs client-side in your browser. Your text never leaves your device.
