Random String Generator

Generate secure random strings for API keys, tokens, IDs and salts. Choose the length, which character sets to include and how many you need. Built with the browser crypto RNG, 100% in your browser, and never sent anywhere.

How to use this random string generator

  1. Length, set how many characters each string should have.
  2. Character sets, tick lowercase, uppercase, numbers and symbols to shape the pool.
  3. How many, choose how many strings to produce at once, then press Generate.
  4. Copy any result with its Copy button. Change any field and the list refreshes instantly.

Nothing is submitted or stored: the strings are created on your device and never leave it, so you can produce secrets and keys privately.

Uses for random strings

Built on the browser crypto RNG

This tool picks every character with crypto.getRandomValues, the browser cryptographically-secure random number generator, not the weaker Math.random. It uses rejection sampling so each character is chosen uniformly from your selected pool, with no bias toward any value. The result is high-entropy output that is suitable for secrets: a 32-character string drawn from letters and numbers is practically impossible to guess.

Because all of this runs locally, the strings never touch a server. That keeps your keys and tokens private and means the tool keeps working even offline.

Frequently asked questions

Are these strings really random?

Yes, they use crypto.getRandomValues, the browser cryptographically-secure generator, with rejection sampling for an unbiased result.

Can you see the strings I generate?

No. Nothing leaves your browser.

What length should I pick for a secret?

Use 32 or more characters with letters and numbers enabled for API keys, tokens and salts.

Can I generate many at once?

Yes, set the "How many" field and you get a batch of strings, each with its own Copy button.
