Binary Encoder is a free online tool that converts text characters into their binary (base-2) representation. Each character is converted to its UTF-8 byte value and displayed as an 8-bit binary number. This is useful for understanding how text is stored in computers, debugging data encoding issues, and learning about binary number systems.
The tool supports full Unicode and UTF-8 characters, so it correctly handles text in any language, emojis, and special characters. Multi-byte UTF-8 characters produce multiple 8-bit binary groups. All processing happens entirely in your browser — no data is sent to any server.
