Human-readable password generator
These passwords use only letters and digits and leave out characters that look alike, such as 0 and O or 1, l and I. You can read one aloud or copy it from a screen by hand without mistakes.

At a glance
- Characters used
- 56: 24 capitals (no I or O), 24 lower-case letters (no l or o) and the digits 2–9
- Strength per character
- log2(56) ≈ 5.81 bits, against log2(87) ≈ 6.44 bits with every letter, digit and symbol
- 16 characters
- 16 × 5.81 ≈ 92.9 bits (the meter shows 92); 20 characters ≈ 116 bits
- NIST minimum length
- 15 characters for a password used on its own; 8 when it's one part of multi-factor authentication

Keep a page for the right people only
On Liite Pro you can protect a page with a password, so a client area, a price list or a guest page is only seen by people you give it to.
Human-readable password generator: what to know
This page starts the password generator for this case. For every option and how to use it, see the password generator.
When an easy-to-read password helps
Use it for any password a person will read and type rather than paste: a Wi-Fi password on a card by the door, a code you read out over the phone, a login typed on a TV remote or a games console, or a password you write on a label for a shared device.
If the password lives in a password manager and is only ever pasted, readability doesn't matter. Use the full character set there.
Making up for the missing characters
Dropping symbols and look-alikes shrinks each character's choices from 87 to 56, so each one carries about 0.64 bits less. Over 16 characters that's about 10 bits, less than two extra characters' worth. This page starts at 16, one above NIST's minimum; at 18 it beats a 16-character password that uses every symbol (104.5 bits against 103.1).
If a site still insists on a symbol, tick Symbols. The look-alike filter stays on, so you won't get characters that are easy to misread. For something easier still to say out loud, switch to words and use a passphrase.
Questions
Which characters are left out?
0 and O, o, 1, l and I, the characters most often misread in common fonts and handwriting. Symbols are off too; if you turn them back on, the tool's symbols never include | ` ' or ".
Is a human-readable password less secure?
Slightly, per character: about 5.8 bits instead of 6.4. Add two characters and it's at least as strong as a full-set password of the original length, up to 18 characters.
