Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, absolutely. Diff Guru is a free online tool. There are no hidden costs, usage limits, or premium features. Our goal is to provide a powerful and accessible utility for everyone.
Your privacy is our top priority. All text comparisons are performed directly in your web browser. The data you paste is never sent to our servers, stored, or logged. What you compare stays on your computer.
No. Diff Guru is a hassle-free web application. There's no need to create an account, register, or install any software or browser extensions. Just open the website and start comparing.
You can compare any plain text content. This makes it ideal for source code (like JavaScript, Python, HTML, CSS), configuration files (JSON, XML), documents, articles, and any other text-based files.
When a difference is found, you will see options to merge the change from left to right, or right to left. Clicking a merge button replaces the content in one document with the content from the other for that specific change block, allowing you to selectively combine your texts.
While there are no hard limits, performance may degrade with extremely large text inputs (e.g., millions of lines) as all processing is done in your browser. For most practical use cases, you won't encounter any issues. You can use the tool as often as you like.
