About Base36

Base36 uses 36 symbols: digits 0–9 and letters a–z. It produces a purely alphanumeric string with no special symbols, making it safe in URLs, IDs, and filenames.

How it works: the data is treated as a large number and converted to base 36. The result is more compact than hexadecimal while still containing only URL-friendly characters.

Base36 is often used to build short IDs, slugs, or unique codes from numbers, because it is dense and easy to type with no confusing characters.

FAQ

Can this Base36 tool both encode and decode?

Yes. This is a single page with a toggle — use Encode mode to transform text, and Decode mode to reverse it. No need for two separate pages.

Is my data sent to a server?

No. Base36 is processed entirely in your browser. The text you enter never leaves your device.
