Ask the pixie.
A passphrase you can actually type, or a sour little password when a form insists.
A passphrase generator that runs nowhere but your browser
PassPixie builds every secret on the page you are looking at. There is no account, no server round-trip, and no record of what it made. Close the tab and the string is gone for good, which is exactly how a generated password should behave.
Words are drawn from the EFF
Dice-Generated Passphrase lists — 7,776 words on the long list, 1,296 on the short
one — using crypto.getRandomValues with rejection sampling, so no word is
quietly more likely than another. Strength is reported as the honest size of the recipe
in bits rather than a crack-time estimate that flatters the result.
What it makes
- Passphrases — several random words joined by a separator you choose, with optional digits, a symbol, and capitalisation rules. Long enough to be strong, shaped enough to type from memory.
- Random passwords — any length from 8 to 128 characters, over the character classes you enable, with lookalike characters (
O 0 I l 1) removed by default. - Secrets that fit hostile forms — set a maximum length and the generator will shorten the word list to squeeze through a 16- or 20-character field, and tell you plainly when a limit is costing you strength.
How to use it
Pick a recipe, press Generate, press Copy, and paste the result straight into a password manager. PassPixie is a generator, not a vault — it keeps nothing. If you want a deeper explanation of the randomness, the entropy maths, or why there is no “test my password” box, the frequently asked questions cover all of it.
