I kept reaching for CyberChef for quick encode/decode/hash/crypto chains, but wanted something that loads instantly and never sends my data anywhere — so I built one into Payload Playground.
Encoding Pipeline — 286 operations, chainable into a recipe
- Base64 / URL / Hex / HTML-entity / Unicode encode + decode
- MD5 / SHA-1/256/512 + HMAC, AES, XOR, ROT13
- Entropy analysis, case/transform ops, and a "magic" auto-decoder
- Shareable recipe links + presets, with intermediate output shown at every step
Everything runs 100% client-side — open your network tab and watch: your input never leaves the browser. No signup, no account.

It's part of a free toolkit (73 tools, 32 payload generators, 65 copy-ready cheat sheets) for pentest / bug-bounty work. Feedback very welcome!

Client-side is the right default for this category. People paste tokens, payloads, hashes, screenshots, and weird production fragments into tools like this, often without thinking about sensitivity. A fast local pipeline with visible intermediate output is both a UX win and a security win.
