Hash Generator

Generate MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512 hashes

How to use

1. Type or paste the text you want to hash.
2. Pick a hash algorithm (such as SHA-256).
3. The hash is computed instantly and shown below.
4. Copy the digest for checksums, fingerprints, or verification.

Why use this tool

• Multiple algorithms: Generate common hashes like SHA-1, SHA-256, and SHA-512.
• Instant digests: Hashes are computed as you type using the browser's crypto APIs.
• 100% private: Everything runs in your browser. Your data is never uploaded to a server, so it's safe for confidential content.

Frequently asked questions

What's a hash used for?

Hashes create a fixed-length fingerprint of data — useful for verifying file integrity, comparing content, or storing checksums.

Can I reverse a hash to get the original text?

No. Hashes are one-way by design. Identical input always gives the same hash, but you can't recover the input from the hash.

Is MD5 safe?

MD5 and SHA-1 are fine for non-security checksums but are broken for security uses. Prefer SHA-256 or stronger for anything sensitive.

Is my input private?

Yes. Hashing happens in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
