Plain text only · 100,000 characters per input. Line diff: 1,200 lines; character diff: 1,500 Unicode code points. No semantic or fuzzy comparison.
THE METHOD / 01
A clear wayfrom start to finish.
Lists are treated as sets, using trimmed lines and optional case folding; blank lines are omitted.
Keep the assumptions clear
Matching is exact after selected normalization; there is no fuzzy matching or automatic language correction.
A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS
Good to know.
Are my inputs uploaded?
No. Processing runs locally in your browser. The host still receives normal requests for website pages and assets.
Can I keep my result?
Use the download controls for the current tool or print from your browser. Seating plans, flashcards and document drafts autosave in this browser; see the privacy page.
Do I need an account?
No sign-up, paid API or subscription is required. Both languages use the same tools. English always opens at the root address.
