What is a Textvergleich (Ähnlichkeit in %)?

Where Text Diff Checker shows what changed, this reduces the comparison to a single similarity score — useful for a quick "how close are these two" check on product descriptions, survey responses, or duplicate-content screening.

How to use the Textvergleich (Ähnlichkeit in %)

  1. Paste the first text
  2. Paste the second text
  3. A similarity percentage appears instantly, on your device

Example

Comparing "The cat sat on the mat" against "The cat sat on the rug" returns a high similarity score, close to 90%, since only one word out of six differs.

Frequently asked questions

How is the similarity percentage calculated?

From the Levenshtein edit distance — the minimum number of single-character insertions, deletions, or substitutions to turn one text into the other — expressed as a percentage of the longer text's length.

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No — Textvergleich (Ähnlichkeit in %) runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript/WebAssembly. Your text is never sent to a server.

What similarity percentage should I treat as 'duplicate' content?

There's no universal cutoff, but many SEO tools flag anything above roughly 80% as near-duplicate — treat the score as a signal to review manually rather than an automatic pass/fail threshold.
