System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Compare two versions of a legal document to quickly surface additions, deletions, and modifications so reviewers can focus on substantive edits instead of manual line-by-line review.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Extract text from PDF, DOCX, and TXT files and align content at paragraph and word levels for accurate diffs.
  • Produce a side-by-side visual comparison (comparison.html), a change heatmap (change_heatmap.html), a human-readable summary (comparison_summary.txt), and a structured change log (change_log.json) for downstream processing.
  • Use cases include contract version review, policy updates, litigation document tracking, and preparing redlines or change summaries for clients or opposing counsel.

Quick Start

Compare the original and revised files to generate a visual side-by-side diff, heatmap, and structured change log for review.
