  3. Set any options provided.
  4. Copy the result. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

Which algorithm should I use?

For security use SHA-256 or SHA-512. MD5 and SHA-1 are broken for security purposes but remain useful as fast, non-cryptographic checksums.
