Paste text to hash, or leave the box empty for the digest of zero bytes.

Hex digest

About SHA-256 Hash

SHA-256 hashes the UTF-8 bytes of everything you paste and prints 64 hex characters. An empty box is the digest of zero bytes, not a blank result.

Uppercase hex writes the same digest with A-F. Leave it off for the usual lowercase form used by most checklists.

MD5 is not available because WebCrypto does not offer it. SHA-1, on its own page, is only for checking old systems. Use SHA-256 for a new checksum.

Frequently asked questions

What does SHA-256 hash here?

The whole input, as UTF-8 bytes, including accents and emoji. The output is 64 hex characters. An empty box is the digest of zero bytes.

Why is there no MD5?

WebCrypto does not offer MD5, so this page does not compute one. Use SHA-256 for new checks. SHA-1 is only for checking old systems.

What does Uppercase hex change?

It prints the same digest with A-F instead of a-f. Turn it on when the value you are comparing uses capital letters.

Is the text I paste uploaded anywhere?

No. This runs in your browser and the text you paste is never uploaded, logged or stored. Google Analytics records page views and feature use, never content.

  • SHA-512 Hash

    Compute a SHA-512 message digest from any text in your browser. The longer hex updates as you type, and your text is never uploaded.

  • SHA-1 Hash

    Check a SHA-1 digest against old systems in your browser. Use it only to compare legacy hashes, and your text is never uploaded.

  • HMAC-SHA256

    Sign a message with HMAC-SHA256 in your browser. Put the key on the first line, then the text, and your text is never uploaded.

  • Lorem Ipsum

    Generate placeholder words, sentences or paragraphs.

  • UUID Generator

    Generate version-4 UUIDs from cryptographic random bytes.

  • QR Code

    Encode text as a QR code and show it as an image.

  • JSON Escape / Unescape

    Turn text into a valid JSON string literal, or decode one back to plain text.
