How to use this text tool

  • Paste or upload your text into the input box.
  • Choose the conversion format and any repair or live-preview options.
  • Run the tool, then copy, download, or export the result.

What this tool does

Base64 output = UTF-8 bytes grouped into 6-bit values and mapped to the Base64 alphabet.

Base64 output = UTF-8 bytes grouped into 6-bit values and mapped to the Base64 alphabet.

Base64 increases size by roughly one third. It is not encryption and should not be used to hide secrets.

Example

Example input: Hello CallText. Run the tool to generate the converted result and view integrity metrics.

Use cases

  • Programming and debugging
  • API and web development
  • Encoding lessons and documentation
  • Data cleanup before import or export

Tips for better output

  • Use auto-detect when pasted data has mixed separators or formats.
  • Check the data integrity score before copying output into code.
  • Use JSON or CSV export when documenting conversion results.
  • For non-ASCII text, prefer Unicode or UTF-8 workflows.

Processing details

This tool runs locally in the browser and performs deterministic text conversion without uploading your input. Metrics include size, validity, and character-level analysis where relevant.

Browser text decoding may display binary data as replacement characters. For sensitive secrets, remember that encoding is not encryption.

FAQ

How do I encode text to Base64?

Paste plain text and run the encoder. The tool converts UTF-8 bytes into a Base64 string.

Why is Base64 longer than the original text?

Base64 represents binary data using text-safe characters, which usually increases size by about 33 percent.

How do I create URL-safe Base64?

Enable URL-safe output to replace + and / with - and _ and remove unnecessary padding when appropriate.

Can I encode JSON to Base64 for an API?

Yes. Paste the JSON as text, encode it, and use the size and validation metrics before sending it to an API.

Is Base64 encryption secure for passwords?

No. Base64 is reversible encoding, not encryption. Do not use it to protect passwords or secrets.
