HTML Entity Encoder / Decoder
Escape text into HTML entities, or turn entities back into plain text — live in your browser.
Free online HTML entity encoder & decoder
The Ajenza HTML Entity tool encodes text into HTML entities so it renders literally instead of as markup, and decodes entities back to plain text. When encoding you can escape only the HTML-special characters (& < > " ') or every non-ASCII character too, and choose named entities like © or numeric ones like ©. Decoding understands named, decimal and hexadecimal entities. It all runs locally — nothing is uploaded.
Is it free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, download or watermark.
Named or numeric entities?
Both render identically. Named ones are more readable; numeric ones work for any character. Toggle the option to switch.
Is my text uploaded?
No — everything runs in your browser.
