How to verify the result

A useful tool should let you verify its output. Start with a small test, keep the original and only then use the result in production. The scenario below helps catch problems before you copy, download or share anything.

Practical check

Use two short lists with one repeated item, one unique item and extra spaces; verify duplicate and normalization rules.

What this tool does not replace

Results depend on the input and browser support. Review fields, units and final format; the tool is not a substitute for professional analysis when a decision has legal, financial, medical or security consequences.

Data handling

Three results at once

Instead of comparing by hand, the tool splits everything into three colored panels: items only in List A, items in both lists and items only in List B. Each panel has a copy button and an item count.

Smart options

Turn on "ignore case" to treat "Mary" and "mary" as equal, "trim extra spaces" to clean data pasted from spreadsheets, and "remove duplicates" to tidy the results. Everything recalculates instantly.

100% private and offline

The comparison happens entirely in your browser. Your lists are never sent to any server — perfect for sensitive data like customer emails or internal codes.

Frequently asked questions

How should I separate items?

One item per line. Just paste your lists straight from a spreadsheet, notepad or email.

Is the comparison case-sensitive?

By default yes, but you can enable the "ignore case" option so that "ABC" and "abc" count as the same item.

What does the "remove duplicates" option do?

It works inside each list: if the same item is repeated within your list (for example "banana" twice), the result shows it only once. Turn it off to see every repetition. This is unrelated to the items shared between the two lists, which show up in the "in both lists" panel.

Is there a size limit?

There is no practical limit. Since everything runs in your browser, you can compare thousands of lines without sending anything to the internet.
