Text Diff Checker

Paste two versions of a text and see exactly what changed — line by line or word by word, entirely in your browser.

About Text Diff Checker

Text Diff Checker compares two pieces of text and highlights every difference between them: added content in green, removed content in red, and everything unchanged left as plain text. Switch between line-level diffing — ideal for comparing paragraphs, articles, contracts or config files — and word-level diffing, which pinpoints the exact words that changed inside an otherwise identical sentence. It's built for writers checking a revision against a draft, developers comparing two versions of a text-based file, translators verifying an update, or anyone who's ever squinted at two documents trying to spot what's different. The comparison runs entirely in your browser using a proper diff algorithm (the same family used by version control tools), so nothing you paste is ever uploaded, logged or stored anywhere.

How to compare two texts

  1. 1

    Paste your two texts

    Paste the original version on the left and the changed version on the right.

  2. 2

    Pick a comparison mode

    Choose "Lines" to compare paragraph by paragraph, or "Words" to spot exact word-level changes within a line.

  3. 3

    Review the highlighted diff

    Added content is highlighted in green, removed content in red — copy the full diff report with one click if you need to share it.

FAQ

Does this tool upload my text anywhere?
No. Both texts are compared entirely in your browser and never sent to a server.
What's the difference between "Lines" and "Words" mode?
"Lines" mode compares text line by line, showing which whole lines were added, removed or unchanged. "Words" mode compares at the word level, so a one-word change inside a long, otherwise identical sentence is highlighted precisely instead of marking the whole line as changed.
Can I compare code or structured text?
Yes — line mode works well for anything line-based, like config files, CSV rows or code snippets, though it isn't a dedicated code diff tool with syntax highlighting.
Is there a size limit on the text I can compare?
There's no hard limit, but very large documents (tens of thousands of lines) may take a moment longer to compute since everything runs on your device rather than a server.
How do I save the comparison result?
Click "Copy diff" to copy a plain-text report of the comparison — including added/removed/unchanged counts and every changed line or word — to your clipboard.
