Generate MD5 hashes for checksums, data integrity verification, and legacy applications. Not secure for passwords.
Supported Tools:
Free online tool to create and verify MD5 hashes from text or files directly in your browser.
MD5 (Message-Digest Algorithm 5) is a cryptographic hash function that produces a 128-bit (16-byte) hash, represented as a 32-character hexadecimal string. Created by Ronald Rivest in 1991, MD5 is no longer secure for cryptographic use but remains useful for file integrity checks, generating unique identifiers, and quick hashing in legacy systems. This tool lets you generate and verify MD5 hashes for text or files without installing any software.

Can I generate MD5 hashes for free?
Yes. This online tool allows you to instantly generate MD5 hashes from any text or file directly in your browser.
Who created MD5?
MD5 was designed by Ronald Rivest in 1991 as an improvement over MD4 and became widely used for hashing data.
Can MD5 hashes be reversed?
No. MD5 is a one-way hash function. However, online databases may allow reverse lookups for known hashes.
What is MD5 used for?
MD5 is commonly used to verify file integrity, generate checksums, and quickly hash text or passwords. It is not secure for modern cryptography.
Can I calculate the MD5 hash of a file?
Yes. Upload a file, and the tool will compute its MD5 checksum.
