Code & Data Tools

ROT13 Encoder/Decoder

Apply ROT13 to rotate Latin letters by thirteen positions and reverse the result with the same operation.

Use UTF-8 text unless the tool specifically asks for encoded data or a file. Your input stays in this page during the text conversion; some specialized pages load libraries from a CDN.

About ROT13 Encoder/Decoder

ROT13 is a simple letter rotation often used for puzzles or hiding spoilers in plain text. Applying ROT13 twice restores the original letters.

How to use ROT13 Encoder/Decoder

  1. Paste the text to transform.
  2. Select Apply ROT13.
  3. Copy or download the rotated output. Run it again to reverse the transformation.
Important information: ROT13 is not encryption and provides no confidentiality. It rotates basic Latin letters while leaving other characters unchanged.

Helpful tips

Keep an unchanged copy of important input before making transformations. Test the output in the target application or validator, especially before using generated code, configuration, links, or converted data in production. The tool does not execute the code you paste.
