The original JavaScript obfuscator · trusted since 2004

The best way to protect the JavaScript your customers download.

Your browser code is visible to anyone who opens the page. JavaScript Obfuscator makes that code difficult to read, copy, modify, and reuse while keeping it working for real customers. Try it online in seconds, then move to the desktop app when a real project should stay on your computer.

Find Your Fit

Choose the reason you want protection.

Different projects need different levels of protection. Start with the situation that sounds closest to yours.

Recommended: Standard preset. A good first step when you want to make public code harder to copy and edit. The Free tier is enough to test it — no credit card required.

Open Standard Preset ›

Recommended: Maximum preset. Use the strongest preset when your code contains valuable business logic, pricing rules, licensing checks, or other work you do not want competitors to study. Available in every paid tier from $29/month.

Open Maximum Preset ›

Recommended: Desktop app + Maximum preset. Use the desktop app when you need to protect larger folders, repeat the same settings, or keep sensitive source code on your own workstation.

How To Use It

Start small, then protect full projects when you are ready.

You do not need to redesign your website to use JavaScript Obfuscator. Try a short sample online, choose the protection level that fits, and use the desktop app when you need to protect more files at once.

Preview online Paste a small piece of JavaScript, choose a preset, and see how the protected result looks before changing anything else.
Choose a preset Use Standard for basic copy resistance, Balanced for stronger everyday protection, or Maximum for high-value production code.
Move to desktop Protect folders, larger projects, and embedded JavaScript files from a local Windows app when the online tool is no longer enough.
Best for Web apps, commercial widgets, licensing checks, client-side business logic, dashboards, games, and scripts you do not want copied easily.
What to expect The protected code still runs in the browser, but it becomes much harder to read, rename, understand, or modify.

What Protection Changes

Readable browser code becomes hard-to-follow protected code.

JavaScript still has to run in the browser. Obfuscation helps by removing the easy clues people use to understand and reuse it.

Meaningful names disappear. Helpful names like totals, discounts, checks, and user state are replaced with hard-to-read identifiers.
Important strings are hidden. Text values and clues that make code easy to search are encoded before the file is published.
The structure is harder to follow. Maximum protection changes how code flows, making casual reading and quick modification much more difficult.

Trust

Know where your code is handled.

Use the online tool for quick tests. Use the desktop app when you want source code to stay on your workstation. Either way, the product is clear about what it does and what it does not claim.

Online test available Desktop app available Published pricing
Online for samples Paste code into the browser tool when you want a fast preview.
Desktop for sensitive work Use the Windows app when you prefer to keep source files local.
No magic claims Obfuscation raises the effort to understand code. It does not replace server-side authorization or access control.

Desktop App

Use the Windows desktop app when you prefer local processing, need to protect many files, or work with JavaScript embedded in HTML, PHP, ASP, ASPX, or JSP pages. It is the easiest next step after a successful online test.

Frequently Asked

Common questions before you protect JavaScript.

Plain answers about what obfuscation does, what it cannot do, and which version to use first.

Can AI tools or people still read my protected JavaScript?
Obfuscation makes the code much harder to understand. It removes useful names, hides strings, and changes the structure of the file. It is not a promise that no one can ever study the code, but it raises the effort dramatically compared with publishing readable JavaScript.
Is the original source recoverable from the obfuscated output?
No. The protected output does not contain your original comments, names, and readable structure. Anyone viewing the published file sees the transformed version, not a clean copy of your source.
Can it protect JavaScript embedded in HTML, PHP, ASP, ASPX, or JSP files?
Yes. The desktop app can process mixed web files, including JavaScript inside HTML, PHP, ASP, ASPX, and JSP templates.
Is Maximum protection included in the lower-priced plans?
Yes. Maximum protection is available in every paid tier starting at $29/month. You do not need an enterprise plan to use the strongest preset.
Should I use the online tool or the desktop app?
Use the online tool for a quick test or small file. Use the desktop app when you need to protect larger folders, embedded scripts, or source code you prefer to keep on your own computer.
Will obfuscation break my code or hurt runtime performance?
Obfuscation is designed to preserve behavior, but you should always test protected code before publishing it. Stronger settings can add some overhead, so choose the level that fits your project and test the final protected files in the browser.
