01

Generate Strong Passwords

Create cryptographically secure random passwords with customizable length, character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols), and pronounceability. Our generator uses the Web Crypto API for true randomness, not Math.random().

02

Check Password Strength

Evaluate any password's strength with entropy analysis, pattern detection, and estimated crack time calculations. Get specific feedback on weaknesses and actionable suggestions for improvement — all computed locally without sending your password anywhere.

03

Generate Cryptographic Hashes

Compute MD5 and SHA-256 hashes from text or files. Use MD5 for checksums and legacy compatibility, and SHA-256 for security-critical applications like file integrity verification, digital signatures, and blockchain.
