Encrypt or decrypt text with Caesar cipher or ROT13 instantly using this free online tool. Shift letters by any amount (1-25) to encode or decode messages. Perfect for learning cryptography, creating puzzles, or encoding spoilers. No installation needed—easy, fast Caesar cipher and ROT13 encoding for any text.
How to Use the Caesar Cipher & ROT13 Converter
Operation options:
- ROT13:
Applies a fixed shift of 13 positions to each letter.
Letters A–M map to N–Z, and N–Z map back to A–M. Non-letters remain unchanged. - Custom Caesar Cipher:
Enter a shift key (1–25). Each letter in your text is shifted by that key.
For example, with shift 3, A→D, B→E, …, X→A, Y→B, Z→C.
How to use:
- Paste or type your text into the Input area.
- Select ROT13 or Custom Caesar Cipher.
- If using Custom Caesar, enter a shift key between 1 and 25.
- Your encoded or decoded result appears instantly in the Output area.
- Use Copy to copy the result, or Clear to reset and start over.
Tips:
- Non-alphabetic characters (digits, punctuation, spaces) are not changed.
- Case is preserved: lowercase stays lowercase, uppercase stays uppercase.
- ROT13 is a special case of Caesar Cipher with a fixed shift of 13.
- For military or puzzle use, choose a shift key that is hard to guess.
