Hash Generator

Hash Generator

Generate MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 hashes from text or files instantly.

Features

Everything you need for hash generation

Instant Computation

Hashes are computed in real-time as you type, with no server round-trips.

5 Algorithms

MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 computed simultaneously.

File Hashing

Drag and drop any file to compute its hash instantly.

100% Private

All processing happens locally using Web Crypto API. No data is ever uploaded.

How to Use

Generate hashes in three simple steps

1

Choose Mode

Select Text Mode to hash a string, or File Mode to hash a file from your device.

2

Enter Input

Type or paste your text, or drag and drop a file. Hashes compute automatically.

3

Copy Results

Click the Copy button next to any hash algorithm to copy the result to your clipboard.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

What is a hash function?

A hash function takes an input and produces a fixed-size string of characters (the hash). The same input always produces the same hash, but it is computationally infeasible to reverse the process or find two inputs with the same hash.

2

Is MD5 still safe to use?

MD5 is considered cryptographically broken and should not be used for security purposes like password storage or digital signatures. However, it is still useful for checksums and non-security data integrity verification.

3

What is the difference between SHA-256 and SHA-512?

SHA-256 produces a 256-bit (64 hex character) hash, while SHA-512 produces a 512-bit (128 hex character) hash. SHA-512 offers a larger hash space but both are considered secure for most applications.

4

Is my data sent to any server?

No. Hash computation happens locally on your device. Neither your text input nor uploaded files are ever sent to a server.
