ABDiff Help

ABDiff compares and merges text, images, videos, folders, and Mach-O binaries.

Most digital work consists of modifying existing information. ABDiff computes and visualizes the exact differences between two versions so changes can be reviewed clearly. Even as AI systems generate more and more content, human review remains necessary to make informed decisions before accepting those changes.

Quick Start

Load files from Help ▸ Samples and play with the available controls.

This tool works great with Git, install the command line with ABDiff ▸ Settings… and configure Git.
