Compare two documents
Finds differences between two versions or related documents.
Use this workflow when you have two versions of a document and need to understand what changed. AI can spot differences, but important changes should be checked yourself.
Label the documents clearly as version A and version B. Remove private information if needed, and decide whether you want a summary, table or decision list.
Input: Two versions of a client proposal. Output shape: key differences, added sections, removed sections, wording changes and items that may need approval.
Check important changes against the original documents. Pay attention to figures, deadlines, commitments, legal wording and anything that affects a decision.
