Q: Sorry, wrong language :-) I have tested documents in German and have encountered several problems.

In my imported documents, all umlauts are replaced by "?". An umlaut is a symbol that is written over vowels in German and some other languages to indicate how they should be pronounced. For example, the word "fΓΌr" has an umlaut over the "u". Also, in Word documents, the spaces for lists, e.g. in numbered sections, are filled with "?". Consequently, I would have to replace these spaces and the umlauts in order to carry out a check correctly. However, this is not the purpose of software that is supposed to perform a quick check. The error is reproducible, and now what?

A: Unfortunately, it's not currently feasible. The app's primary function is to compare similarities among multiple documents. Implementing storage and querying features would entail a completely different product, and I'm uncertain if such additions are planned for the future.

A: Reports are generated online through the app and are easily accessible via a shareable link. I assume that report verification won't be necessary in this case, but it would indeed be a great addition to the product, especially for offline reports.

Q: Hello, I am very interested in the features provided by SimilarDocs and would appreciate some assistance ...

in gaining a better understanding of the current and planned functionalities.

I'm wondering if the AS plan 3 corresponds to the enterprise plan that is shown on your pricing page.

I have observed that the roadmap only includes the heatmap report. Are there any other features currently being developed or under consideration?

I have come across some interesting feature requests in the Q&A section on AS. I am curious if API and webhook functionality are being considered, given the workflows implied by the use cases on your website.

Lastly, what is the maximum number of users permitted per code?

Do you provide any sample reports, and can they be viewed in a web browser?

Thank you for taking the time in answering my questions as I strongly consider Plan 3 being offered.

Q: Three days ago, I emailed the support team but have not received a response yet.

I want to know the word limit per document for checking. The official website does not offer trial credits. Perhaps offering trial credits for checking 2 to 3 documents would be beneficial. Otherwise, seeking a refund after purchase can be a hassle.

Q: Did I get it right, that SimilarDocs only compares my own docs for similarity?

So when I write a blog / an article with AI it doesn't check if there is another document in the web similar to mine?

A: SimilarDocs currently checks for plagiarism or similarity score against your own documents, not against the websites. For example, if you are a content creator, editor, or professor, you may have many documents with potential similarity issues.

A: Similardocs facilitates the comparison of two or more documents. One practical application of two documents checking is when dealing with annual lease agreements for a rented property. These agreements, often lengthy and subject to slight changes each year, can be efficiently analyzed by Similardocs to identify alterations without the need for a line-by-line review.

Another scenario is in the role of an editor, where one is tasked with tracking changes in a document. Similardocs proves beneficial in swiftly pinpointing modifications by highlighting similarities, saving considerable time compared to manual reading.

Additionally, for individuals seeking to enhance their writing skills, Similardocs provides a useful function for comparing old and new work side by side. This feature aids in the self-improvement of writing by identifying changes and similarities between different versions.

I hope this helps.

Q: The image that you have under "see the difference side by side".

I dont understand why only the red portion is highlighted. Both content are exactly same, it should be 100% (says only 45% in the image). Is this just lazy and sloppy demo image or am i missing something here ?

A: Grammarly is a slightly tool that focuses on grammar and sentence structure of single document, with some plagiarism detection features, whereas SimilarDocs is mainly designed for people checking for repetitions in their own or other documents, and produces reports that highlight all similarities, no matter how small.

This product is ideal for individuals who write frequently, including bloggers, proofreaders, and professional writers ✍️. It is also valuable for those in academia πŸŽ“ who need to validate and grade work by identifying similarities in submissions.

Hope this helps!😊
