About this tool
Paste a JWT to instantly decode and view its header and payload as formatted JSON. This tool decodes only — it does not verify the signature.
How to use
- Paste a JWT string into the input box.
- The decoded header and payload appear as formatted JSON.
- Check expiry and claims directly in the output.
FAQ
Does this verify the token's signature?
No. This tool only decodes the header and payload for inspection — it does not verify signature validity, so never treat a decoded token as authenticated.
Is my token sent anywhere?
No, decoding happens entirely in your browser. Avoid pasting production secrets into any online tool regardless.
