i-net PDFC
i-net PDFC compares documents and detects changes in text, tables, layout, and structure. It supports PDF, DOCX, TXT, PNG, JPEG, BMP, and GIF comparisons; the product page also lists ODT. Structured comparison examines elements such as styles and shapes and recognizes tagged PDF and PDF/UA structure. Additional capabilities include table comparison by key columns, OCR, language detection, and exports of results and reports. The desktop application keeps files local for single-user work, while the server application supports multiple accounts, groups, and browser dashboards. Task Planner can schedule batch comparisons and other tasks. Developers have a RESTful interface, Java and.NET SDKs, and JUnit and NUnit libraries for verification workflows. Comparison files and data remain on the local computer or user's server rather than going to third parties, though optional server features may send configured data to external services. Platforms include Windows, Linux/UNIX, macOS 13+, Docker, and a browser interface for server use. A 30-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. Standard yearly costs $199 a year; prices exclude VAT.
