Hash Generator

Compute MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256 and SHA-512 hashes from any text with a single click. Useful for integrity checks, API signing and password hashing experiments. Hashes are computed locally — nothing is transmitted.

Empty input shows the well-known empty-string hashes

Hashes are computed on your device using the well-tested MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256 and SHA-512 implementations. Nothing is transmitted. MD5 and SHA-1 are cryptographically broken — use SHA-256/SHA-512 for security.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between MD5 and SHA-256?

SHA-256 is cryptographically stronger and collision-resistant; MD5 is older and broken for security use but still common for quick checksums.

Can I store passwords with these hashes?

For passwords, use a dedicated password-hashing algorithm like bcrypt or Argon2. Plain MD5/SHA hashes are fast and easy to crack.
