Levenshtein ratio (lite)

Client

Similarity ratio from edit distance.

Similarity ratio vs distance

Ratio is 1 − distance/max(len(a),len(b)). Empty strings and Unicode code units follow the same rules as the standalone Levenshtein tool. Processing runs in your browser—Toolcore does not need your paste for the core operation on this page.

Deterministic text transforms; homoglyphs and Unicode normalization may change scores.

How to use

Paste or type in the main field, then read the output below. Use Load example when available, or open the page with ?q= / ?qb= so tickets and agents share the same input.
