What is RSA Generator and how does it work?
Generate an RSA public and private key pair for SSH, TLS or JWT signing, using your browser's own audited Web Crypto engine. No upload takes place: the file is read and written locally in your browser. With the processing in the browser tab you are reading this in, there is no trial to start and no subscription waiting at the end.

How to Use RSA Generator - Step-by-Step Guide
Follow these simple instructions to get the best results with our online tool:
- Step 1: Choose your key size — 2048 bits is the sensible modern default.

The only safe way to generate a key
Local generation with the browser's own audited crypto means your private key is never exposed to the network.
Detailed Technical Overview
Generate a public and private RSA key pair directly in your browser with our free RSA key generator. RSA underpins a huge amount of everyday security: SSH access to servers, signed software releases, encrypted email, JWT signing and TLS certificates all lean on this kind of key pair.
The pair works on a simple principle. The public key can be shared with anyone and is used to encrypt data or verify a signature; the private key must stay secret and is what decrypts data or creates signatures. Keys are produced using the Web Crypto API built into your browser — the same audited, standards-compliant cryptography that secures HTTPS connections — rather than a hand-rolled implementation.
This is the part that matters most: your private key is generated on your device and never transmitted anywhere. It is not sent to us, not logged, and not recoverable by anyone but you. A key generator that sends your private key over the network is worthless, which is exactly why this one does not.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my private key sent to your servers?
No. Generation happens entirely in your browser through the Web Crypto API. The private key never leaves your device and we never see it.
Which key size should I choose?
2048 bits is the current practical baseline and is widely accepted. 4096 bits gives a larger security margin at the cost of slower operations.
What is the difference between the two keys?
The public key is shareable and encrypts data or verifies signatures. The private key is secret and decrypts data or creates signatures. Never share the private key.
What if I lose the private key?
It cannot be recovered, by us or anyone else. Anything encrypted to the matching public key becomes permanently unreadable, so back it up somewhere safe.
Can I use these keys for SSH or TLS?
Yes. Keys are produced in standard PEM format, which is what SSH, TLS and JWT tooling expects.
Are my files safe and private?
Nothing is uploaded. Your private key is generated entirely inside your browser, so it never reaches our servers — and the tool keeps working even if your connection drops.
Is the RSA key generator really free?
Yes. The RSA key generator costs nothing — no subscription, no watermark stamped on the result, no account to create, and no daily cap on how many times you run it.
