About

Unlock the full story behind every Google Doc.

WhatsInDocs is the ultimate revision history tracker and writing analysis tool for teachers, editors, and writers. Go beyond the basic "Version History" and see exactly how a document was created, step-by-step.

Whether you are a teacher verifying student work, an editor reviewing a draft, or a writer analyzing your own productivity, WhatsInDocs gives you the insights you need.

🚀 Key Features
🎥 Interactive Document Replay Watch your document being written character-by-character, just like a video!

Time-Lapse View: See the entire creation process from blank page to final draft.
Smart Auto-Scroll: The view automatically follows the active typing position, so you never miss an edit.
Pageless View: Seamlessly scroll through long documents without awkward page breaks.
Adjustable Speed: Watch at 1x, 2x, or even 10x speed to review long sessions in minutes.
🕵️‍♂️ Advanced Paste Detection Instantly spot where content came from.

Visual Markers: Orange markers on the replay timeline show exactly when text was pasted.
Highlighting: Click any marker to jump to that moment and see the pasted text highlighted in orange.
Dual Detection: Detects both real-time copy-pastes (while you write) and historical large insertions (from past revisions).
📊 Comprehensive Writing Analytics Get deep insights into the writing process.

Total Time Spent: Calculate the actual active writing time, excluding idle breaks.
Writing Sessions: View a detailed timeline of every session—who wrote it, when, and for how long.
Word Count Progress: Visualize how the document grew over time with interactive charts.
Typing Speed: Analyze Words Per Minute (WPM) to find your most productive flows.

One-Click Analysis: Get instant stats without leaving your workflow.
Works Offline: Cached analysis lets you review stats even without re-scanning.
🎓 Perfect For...
