How to use
  1. 01Type or paste any text — the binary conversion appears live as a stream of 8-bit bytes.
  2. 02Keep “space between bytes” on for readable groups, or turn it off for one continuous bit string.
  3. 03Copy the binary code; the byte counter shows how many bytes your text became.
About this text to binary converter
How to convert text to binary: every character is first encoded to bytes using UTF-8, and each byte is written as eight bits. “Hi” becomes 01001000 01101001. To change text to binary manually you would look up each character’s code point and convert it to base 2 — this generator does that instantly for whole paragraphs.
Because the conversion is byte-based, characters outside ASCII produce more than one byte: “é” is two bytes and an emoji is four, which is why the byte counter can exceed the character count. The output round-trips exactly through the binary to text converter. Everything runs locally in your browser.
