Fuzzycruce is a utility used to clean databases and link records from different sources. The software includes novel algorithms that make it different from other deduplication and record binding programs. One of its special features, that make it unique with respect to the other similar programs, is to be able to link two records where in one of them there is one or more misspelled or even totally deleted words in relation to the other record, for example, the program could link the record "Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci" with the register "Leonardo da Vinci". The program has been successfully tested to clean databases with more than one million records. The utility has several features to automate tasks with the aim of increasing the productivity of its users.
