Random Text Generator
Generate random text for testing and placeholders. Make random strings from letters, digits, hex or your own characters; or draw words from a list of more than 600 common English words and build sentences and paragraphs from them. Without a seed the tool uses your browser's cryptographic random generator; with a seed the same settings always return the same text, which is useful for repeatable tests.
Generate Random Text
Output is meaningless random text for testing. Do not use seeded output for passwords or secrets; a seed makes the result predictable.

Summary
How to Use the Random Text Generator
- Choose what to generate: strings, words, sentences or paragraphs.
- Set the count and the options that appear for that mode, such as string length and character set.
- Optionally enter a seed if you need repeatable output.
- Press Generate, then copy or download the text.
About This Tool
Developers and testers who need fixtures, designers who need filler text that is not Latin, teachers building exercises and anyone who needs random identifiers or tokens for non-security purposes.
Input: Your options · Output: Random text.
Features and Limitations
Features
- Random strings of 1–1024 characters from preset or custom character sets.
- More than 600 common English words, assembled into random sentences and paragraphs.
- Unbiased crypto-random selection by default; optional seed for repeatable results.
- Choose newline, space or comma separators and download the result as a .txt file.
Limitations
- Sentences and paragraphs are random word sequences, not grammatical or meaningful text.
- A seed switches the tool to a simple pseudo-random generator that is predictable. Never use seeded output for passwords, keys or tokens.
- The word list is common English only.
- Limits per click: 1,000 strings, 10,000 words, 2,000 sentences or 200 paragraphs.
- Results are computed in your browser; nothing you enter is sent to a server.
Example
Five random strings of 16 letters and digits might look like q7LmZ2xB9RkT4vNa, one per line. With seed “demo” the same settings produce the same output every time.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from the Lorem Ipsum generator?
Lorem ipsum produces the traditional pseudo-Latin placeholder text. This tool builds random strings from character sets and random sentences from common English words, and can repeat its output with a seed.
What does the seed do?
It initialises a deterministic pseudo-random generator. The same seed and the same settings produce identical text, which helps reproduce a test. It also makes the output predictable, so it is not secure.
Can I use the strings as passwords?
Only if you leave the seed empty, since then they come from the secure browser generator. For passwords, the dedicated Password Generator offers entropy estimates and character-set guarantees.
Are the words offensive or copyrighted?
The list contains ordinary common English words such as nouns, verbs and adjectives chosen for neutrality. A random combination can still read oddly.
Does it send text to a server?
No. Generation happens entirely in your browser.
