Encoding and Language Detector

File Upload
Functionality

Determine the encoding and language of text files!

  • Detects 40 languages as well as the appropriate encoding
  • Available as CLI, in Node.js and in the browser
  • Supports .txt, .srt, and .sub
  • Works best with large inputs
  • Completely free, no API key required

For reliable encoding and language detection, use files containing 500 words or more. Smaller inputs can work as well but the results might be less accurate and in some cases incorrect.

Feel free to upload your own files and see if the encoding and language are detected correctly!
