Estimate how long a password would take to crack.

## What It Does

Estimate how much work a password represents by measuring its entropy, assuming a specific number of guesses per second, and reporting how long a cracking rig would need. It is an estimate with stated assumptions rather than a verdict, which is the honest way to present this.

## Questions

### Why does my password score badly?

It may be short or include one of the common words this tool checks. The estimate mostly uses length and character types; it cannot spot every predictable pattern. A high score is not a reason to reuse a password.

### Is my password sent anywhere?

The tool computes its estimate in your browser. Still, the field displays your text openly. Use made-up examples, not a password from a real account.
