A local revision instrument
Turn of Phrase
Put two versions of a passage beside each other. This small tool traces the actual token-level spine they share, then lets you touch the turns where the prose changes. It keeps a record, not a score.
The local trace is ready. Pick any thread to inspect the exact words.

What changed, without pretending to judge it
The breathing of the two versions

Your text stays in this browser tab unless you deliberately download a local record. The trace uses word and punctuation alignment; it cannot know why a change was made, whether it improved the writing, or what an author intended.
