CER/WER Diff Viewer
Compare two texts and inspect character- and word-level differences.
About this tool
Forget confusing diff outputs. Our tool visualizes the Levenshtein distance with an intuitive, color-coded system to give you an at-a-glance analysis.
- DELYellow on Hypothesis line — deletions from the Reference.
- INSGreen on Reference line — insertions present in Hypothesis.
- SUBWhite on marker line — substitutions between Reference and Hypothesis.
Built for CJK, perfect for all text. This visual analysis is powered by flawless CJK alignment with a fixed-width Unicode font, ensuring Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters stay perfectly aligned. No more broken comparisons—get accurate, intuitive visual diffs for evaluating CER/WER in ASR, OCR, and text-processing models.

How to Read
Three-line view: Reference (top), Hypothesis (middle), and a marker line (bottom). Green squares on the Reference indicate insertions; yellow squares on the Hypothesis indicate deletions; white squares on the marker line indicate substitutions.
