String Similarity
Compare two strings using various similarity algorithms
Compare how similar two strings are using different algorithms. Each algorithm has different strengths depending on your use case.
Best for short strings like names. Gives higher scores to strings with matching prefixes.
Algorithm Guide
Jaro-Winkler
Best for short strings like names. Gives higher scores to strings with matching prefixes.
Levenshtein
Counts minimum edits (insertions, deletions, substitutions) needed to transform one string into another.
Dice Coefficient
Compares bigram (2-character) overlap between strings. Good for longer text.
Hamming
Counts positions where characters differ. Only works on equal-length strings.
