Compare Text Online

Spotting what changed between two versions of a document usually means reading every line twice. CompareText.pro skips that step — paste or upload your original text into one panel, your updated version into the other, and it shows you exactly what's different.

See every change instantly

The comparison engine breaks edits down into four types, so you know not just that something changed, but what kind of change it was:

  • Added text, highlighted in green
  • Removed text, highlighted in red
  • Moved lines, highlighted in blue
  • Modified words, marked directly within the line

Split view

Both documents sit next to each other with lines kept in sync, so you never lose your place while scrolling through long files. It's a good fit for:

  • Reviewing document revisions
  • Comparing contracts
  • Editing articles
  • Reviewing source code
  • Comparing AI-generated texts
Split view Two documents, aligned line by line

Unified view

Prefer reading changes as one continuous document instead? Switch to Unified View to see additions and removals together in a single stream — handy for smaller edits or when you're preparing something for review.

01

Live comparison

Turn it on and results update as you type — no compare button to press after every edit.

02

Search within results

Jump straight to a specific word or phrase instead of scanning a long comparison line by line.

03

Word wrap

Long lines wrap automatically so nothing runs off the edge of the screen on smaller displays. Toggle it off anytime if you'd rather scroll horizontally.

04

Hide unchanged lines

In a large file, the parts that didn't change just take up space. Turn this on to see only the edits.

05

Ignore whitespace

Filters out differences that are just extra spaces, tabs, or formatting — useful for source code, Markdown, JSON, and config files.

06

Ignore letter case

Treats Hello, HELLO, and hello as the same word — useful when comparing imported or standardized content.

Changes summary & visual map

Before you dig into individual edits, a quick summary tells you how different the two versions really are: similarity percentage, difference percentage, and counts of added, removed, moved, and unchanged lines.

The Changes Map gives you a bird's-eye view of the whole document, with colored markers for additions, removals, and edits — so you can jump straight to a section instead of scrolling through a long file looking for it.
