Password generation workflow
Generate a strong password in seconds
Weak passwords are the reason accounts get compromised. The password generator creates random passwords with real entropy, lets you choose length and character sets, and never sends the result anywhere.
The fast workflow
Follow the same short workflow every time so the result is predictable.
Set the length
Choose 16 or more characters for accounts that allow it; longer is always safer.
Pick the character sets
Enable uppercase, lowercase, digits, and symbols as the site allows.
Exclude ambiguous characters
Remove look-alikes such as 0, O, 1, l, and I for easier typing.
Copy and store it safely
Copy the password into a password manager, never into chat or email.
Why random beats memorable
Crackers do not guess one password; they run billions of combinations per second. A 16-character random password with all character sets has far more combinations than any human-memorable pattern.
The generator uses the browser crypto API, so the randomness is cryptographically strong, not a predictable formula.
Common problems
- Passwords based on dictionary words are cracked in seconds
- Reusing one password across sites turns one breach into many
- Writing passwords in notes apps leaves them readable by anyone with the device
Best practices
- Use a password manager so each site gets its own password
- Prefer passphrases for accounts where the generator is not allowed
- Rotate passwords after any service you use reports a breach
Frequently asked questions
Is the generated password truly random?
Yes. The generator uses the browser crypto API, which produces cryptographically strong random values locally.
What is the minimum safe length?
16 characters is a good baseline for most sites; use 20 or more where the service allows it.
Why exclude look-alike characters?
Characters such as 0 and O look the same in many fonts, which causes typos when you type the password manually.
Does the generator store my passwords?
No. Passwords are created locally in your browser and are never transmitted or stored by the site.
Your data stays local
Everything runs in your browser. Files and values are never uploaded or stored.
