string2string Studio Compiles String Algorithms to WebAssembly, Reporting Up to 2,500x Speedups Over Its Python Predecessor

Six modules — alignment, distance, similarity, search, generation metrics, and BLAST homology search — run at character, word, token, line, and residue level entirely client-side, with no installation and no data upload. The C++ core compiles to WebAssembly and reports faster global/local alignment than a general-purpose native C aligner, with exact agreement against independent references under declared settings and client-side blastn closely matching NCBI BLAST+ rankings. Every score ships with its evidence (alignments, edit paths, metric matches, search hits, homology traces), which is the practical differentiator for debugging eval metrics.
