Avatar Generator (identicon)

Generate a unique, deterministic identicon avatar from a name or email — perfect as a default profile picture. 100% local processing in your browser (WebAssembly).

Example:

The same input always generates the same avatar.

How it works

Has a new user signed up on your app but hasn't uploaded a profile picture yet? Automatically generate a unique, recognizable "identicon" avatar from their name or email, rather than showing the same generic icon for everyone. Enter the text, click "Generate" and download the result as an SVG.

Is the avatar always the same for the same input?

Yes: generation is deterministic. The entered text is hashed, and this hash determines both the shape (a symmetrical 5x5 grid) and the color. The same text therefore always produces the same avatar, which lets you, for instance, regenerate a user's avatar on the fly without having to store it.

Can I use this avatar in production?

The generated SVG is self-contained (no external dependency) and can be displayed directly, converted to PNG, or embedded as a default profile picture in your interface.

100% local processing: generation happens in your browser via our WebAssembly module — your data is never sent to a server.
