JWT Decoder

Decode a JSON Web Token to inspect its header and payload. Decoding only — no verification, all in your browser.

Runs in your browser — files never leave your device

This decodes the token only — it does not verify the signature.

How it works

Paste a JWT to see its decoded header and payload as formatted JSON.

Useful for debugging auth flows and inspecting claims like exp and iat.

Frequently asked questions

Does this verify the signature?
No — it only decodes the header and payload so you can inspect the claims. Verification needs the secret/key.
Is my token uploaded?
No — decoding happens entirely in your browser. Still, avoid pasting production tokens you consider secret.
