Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the Text Compare.

Which comparison mode should I use?

Use “Lines” for code and lists, “Words” for documents and articles, and “Characters” to spot tiny changes like typos or punctuation.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No. The comparison runs entirely in your browser, so it's safe for contracts, code and other private documents.

Can I compare code?

Yes. Line mode works well for any source code, config file or CSV, and whitespace is preserved exactly.
