Frequently Asked Questions
What can I encode and decode here?
You can run Base64 encode/decode and URL encode/decode operations on text values.
Can this help with API debugging?
Yes. It is useful for testing query parameters and encoded payload values.
Is encoded data uploaded anywhere?

How it works
This tool splits the binary input on spaces, parses each 8-bit chunk with parseInt(chunk, 2) to get the character code, then uses String.fromCharCode() to convert each code to a character. Processing runs in your browser.
Common use cases
- Decode binary-encoded strings found in CTF challenges or debugging output
- Convert binary representations back to readable ASCII text
- Inspect binary encoding of specific characters
