How it works
Encode with TextEncoder; format each byte as eight binary digits. Decode groups of eight bits using fatal UTF-8 validation.
Input definitions
- Text or space-separated 8-bit bytes
- Plain text; maximum 200,000 characters.
- Direction
- Choose Text to binary / Binary to text.
A worked example
- Text or space-separated 8-bit bytes
- Hi
- Direction
- Text to binary
Assumptions & limits
UTF-8 only; binary input requires complete eight-bit bytes. No file parsing or execution.

Common questions
Does this tool execute the code or data I paste?
Inputs are treated as data under the stated parser or transformation. Output is displayed as text. Parsing or formatting does not establish that the content is safe to execute elsewhere.
