What is Hash Generator?

A text hashing tool. Pick an algorithm and type or paste text to instantly get its hexadecimal digest, ready to compare against known values.

How it works

SHA-family digests are computed with crypto.subtle.digest; MD5 uses a small bundled implementation because Web Crypto deliberately excludes it.

Frequently asked questions

Is MD5 safe to use?

MD5 is broken for security purposes (collisions are practical). Use SHA-256 or SHA-512 for anything security-sensitive; MD5 remains fine for checksums of non-adversarial data.
