Text Similarity Checker

Compare two texts for overlapping phrases -- not a web-search plagiarism checker

This compares the two texts you paste below against each other only — it has no connection to the internet or any academic database, so it cannot tell you whether your writing matches something published elsewhere. Use it to compare your draft against a specific source you're citing, or two of your own drafts — not as a substitute for your school's actual plagiarism-detection tool.

What is this tool?

Compares two texts you provide against each other and highlights overlapping phrases with a match percentage — a text comparison tool, not a web-search plagiarism checker, since it has no connection to the internet or any academic database.

How to use it

Paste your text and the text you want to compare it against, and the overlapping phrases are highlighted automatically with a match percentage shown.

Use this to compare your draft against a specific source you're citing, or two of your own drafts — it's not a substitute for your school's actual plagiarism-detection tool, which checks against a much broader database.
