What Is a Torrent Info-Hash?
The info-hash is the SHA-1 hash of a torrent's info dictionary — its unique fingerprint on the BitTorrent network. Magnet links use this hash to find peers without needing a tracker or .torrent file. Convert yours now: Torrent to Magnet →
Why Switch to Magnet Links?
- No file to store — a magnet link is a short text string you can copy anywhere
- Works without trackers — DHT finds peers even if all trackers are offline
- Never expires — permanent link that always works
- Smaller — under 200 bytes vs kilobytes for a .torrent file
- Easy to share — paste into any modern torrent client
Batch Conversion
Drop multiple .torrent files at once and get a magnet link for each. Perfect for converting an entire torrent library to magnet links in one go.
100% Private
Your .torrent files are parsed in your browser using JavaScript. The SHA-1 info-hash is computed locally using the Web Crypto API. Nothing is uploaded to our servers.
