Free Password Generator & Strength Checker
Weak, reused passwords are still one of the most common causes of account breaches. This tool generates strong, random passwords using your browser's built-in cryptographic random number generator, and lets you test how strong any password is β both run entirely on your device, with nothing ever sent to a server.
How to use it
- Adjust the length slider and character-type checkboxes, then click Generate password.
- Use Generate 5 more to get a quick batch to choose from.
- Paste an existing password into the checker to see its estimated strength and crack-time.
- Copy your chosen password directly and store it in a password manager rather than reusing it elsewhere.
Password best practices
- Use at least 12β16 characters with a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols.
- Never reuse the same password across multiple accounts.
- Avoid dictionary words, names, and predictable patterns like "123456" or "password".
- Use a password manager to generate and store unique passwords for every account.
- Enable two-factor authentication wherever it's available, in addition to a strong password.
Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to generate a password on a website?
This tool runs entirely in your browser using the Web Crypto API and never transmits anything over the network. For your most sensitive accounts, a dedicated password manager is still the gold standard.
How long should a password be?
At least 12 characters as a minimum, 16+ for important accounts, combined with a mix of character types.
How is strength calculated?
From entropy based on length and character variety, converted into an approximate crack time under both fast offline and throttled online attack scenarios.
