Text Compare FAQ
What do the colors mean?
Green lines with a plus sign were added in the second version. Red lines with a minus sign were removed from the first version. Lines with no color are unchanged.
Can I compare two versions of a document?
Yes. Paste each version into a box and compare. It is useful for spotting edits between drafts, contract versions, code snippets, or config files.
Does it compare word by word or line by line?
This tool compares line by line, which is the clearest way to see structural changes. Each line is marked as added, removed, or unchanged.
Is my text private?
Yes. The comparison runs entirely in your browser on your own device. Neither block of text is ever sent to a server.
Do I need to sign up?
No. The text compare tool is free with no account and no limits.
