About This Tool

Look, sometimes you just need to turn text into binary. No fancy interfaces, no ads, no nonsense. That’s what this ASCII to binary converter is for. You type in some text—like your name, a sentence, or even a dumb inside joke—and it spits out the binary equivalent. Each character gets turned into its 8-bit binary code, just like the old computers used to read it. It’s not magic. It’s just how computers see text. Every letter, number, or symbol has a number assigned to it in the ASCII table. This tool takes that number and converts it to binary. Simple as that. I built this because I got tired of opening Python just to convert a string for a quick script. Now I can do it in two seconds. Maybe you’ll find it useful too.

FAQ

Wait, what’s ASCII again?
Yeah, I forget too. ASCII is basically a system that gives every character a number. Like 'A' is 65, 'a' is 97, and a space is 32. This tool takes those numbers and turns them into binary—so 65 becomes 01000001. That’s how your keyboard talks to the computer.

Can I convert binary back to text with this?
Nope. This only goes one way: ASCII to binary. If you need the reverse, you’ll have to use a different tool. But hey, now you know what to search for.
