File fingerprint
Hashes to verify a file, compare files and check a hash.
Free, no sign-up. It runs inside your browser: your files never leave your device.
Get a file's hash (SHA-256, SHA-1, MD5 and SHA-512) to check that it has not changed. Compare files, or check a file against a hash someone gave you.

- Drop one or more files of any type.
- Read the hashes shown for each file.
- To check a file, paste a hash in "Check against a hash". Add two or more files to compare them.
- Click "Save report" to keep a copy.
