Most diff tools are built for code; they're terrible at prose. Essay Diff AI does the opposite: red strikethroughs for deletions, green underlines for additions, a word-count delta as a single percentage, and a 'Generate AI Insights' pass that summarises the rhetorical change — not just the textual one. Built for students, editors, and anyone who tracks how their writing actually evolves draft to draft.
