- Read the status of each name, then download the matches as CSV or Excel.
Questions
How is the score worked out?
It is the higher of two measures. Jaro-Winkler compares letters in order and rewards a shared start. The token score compares the words, so a name whose words are all in the other name scores 100. Read a 100 with care when one name has extra words.
What does Ignore company words do?
It drops words such as Inc, Ltd, LLC, GmbH, Co and Corp before comparing, so Acme Inc. and Acme Ltd match. Accents and punctuation are always ignored.
Is my list uploaded?
No. Both lists are read and compared in your browser. Large lists are compared in a background worker on the same device.
