What this tool gives you

similarity score
Paste two texts

Fix list

Compare two texts

Paste the original and the page to check. Analysis runs locally in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere.

What this checker looks for

Near-duplicate pages split ranking signals — one of them should earn the spot.

5-gram overlap

Shared phrase blocks reveal copied passages.

Identical sentences

Full copied sentences are the clearest flag.

Verbatim runs

12+ words in a row deserves a rewrite.

Unique vocabulary

Distinct pages bring their own words.

Thin inputs rejected

Under 20 words the score would mislead.

Local analysis

Texts never leave the browser tab.

How to use the checker

Paste both versions, then rewrite the shared passages first.

1

Paste both texts

Original on the left, page to check on the right — 20 words minimum each.

2

Read the overlap

Similarity carries the most weight, then identical sentences and verbatim runs.

3

Rewrite shared blocks

Change the angle and examples, not just synonyms — or canonicalize one page.

When overlap becomes a problem

Some shared boilerplate is normal — copied passages are not.

Duplicate content FAQs

What counts as duplicate content?

Substantive blocks of identical or near-identical copy across pages — full sentences or passages, not single shared phrases. This tool flags 5-gram overlap, identical sentences and verbatim runs.

How much overlap is too much?

Under 15% phrase overlap reads as distinct; 15-35% means shared boilerplate worth rewriting; over 35% risks search engines treating the pages as duplicates and splitting ranking signals.

Is this a plagiarism checker?

It compares the two texts you paste against each other — it does not search the web. Use it to catch accidental duplication between your own pages before publishing.
