Which hash algorithms are supported?

The tool uses the Web Cryptography API to compute SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 digests. MD5 is not included because it is not exposed by Web Crypto in browsers.

How do I hash a binary file?

Click Hash file and select any file. The digest is computed from the raw bytes. Editing the text field switches back to hashing the text content instead.

How does hash comparison work?

Paste two hex strings into Hash A and Hash B. The tool normalizes whitespace and case, then shows whether they match — useful for verifying downloads against a published checksum.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. File contents are read with FileReader and processed only inside your browser using crypto.subtle.digest.

Gerador de hash

Text input

Hashes update automatically as you type. Uploading a file hashes raw bytes instead (shown below).

Compare hashes

Paste two hex digests (spaces ignored, case-insensitive). Useful for verifying downloads.

Hash A

Hash B

Compute cryptographic hashes without uploading anything

SHA-256 is everywhere — verifying downloads, signing payloads, comparing files. Computing a hash in the browser keeps the input on your machine via the Web Crypto API, so you can hash sensitive text or large files locally without trusting a server. The tool also supports SHA-1, SHA-384, and SHA-512 for legacy and high-security needs.

Use the generator when you need to

Verify a download against a published checksum

Hash the file and compare against the project's listed SHA-256 to confirm integrity.

Generate a deterministic identifier

Hash a canonical payload to produce a stable ID for caching, deduplication, or content addressing.

Sanity-check a webhook signature

Compute the expected hash of a payload to validate against the signature header from the upstream service.

How to hash text or files quickly

1
Paste the text you want to hash, or click Hash file and select a file.
2
Pick the algorithm (SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, or SHA-512).
3
Copy the resulting hex digest, or use the compare tool to verify against a published checksum.

Keep going

Generate random IDs

Pick UUIDs when you want randomness rather than a deterministic hash.

Encode hash output as Base64

Convert hex digests to Base64 when an API expects them in that form.

Decode signed JWTs

Inspect token signatures alongside hashing utilities when debugging auth.

Validate signed payloads

Confirm the JSON you're hashing is well-formed before computing a digest.

Common hashing workflows

Verify a release artifact

Hash the downloaded file and compare against the project's published checksum before installing.

Diagnose a webhook signature mismatch

Hash the canonical payload locally to confirm what the upstream signature should be.

Detect duplicate documents

Use the hash of canonical content to identify duplicates without storing the documents themselves.

Perguntas frequentes

A ferramenta usa a Web Cryptography API para calcular digests SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384 e SHA-512. MD5 não está disponível porque não é exposto pelo Web Crypto nos navegadores.

Clique em Hash file e selecione um arquivo. O digest é calculado a partir dos bytes brutos. Se você editar o campo de texto, a ferramenta volta a calcular o hash do conteúdo textual.

Cole duas strings hex em Hash A e Hash B. A ferramenta normaliza espaços e maiúsculas/minúsculas e então indica se são iguais — útil para verificar downloads contra um checksum publicado.

Não. O conteúdo do arquivo é lido com FileReader e processado apenas no seu navegador usando crypto.subtle.digest.
