Shamir's Secret Splitter

Cryptography & Security

Split any secret (seed phrase, password) into cryptographic K-of-N shares using Shamir's Secret Sharing (GF-256). Reconstruct with any K shares. 100% in-browser.

Shamir's Mathematical Secret Splitter

Split sensitive passwords or crypto seed phrases into cryptographic K-of-N shares using Galois Field interpolation.

3/3 Free Daily Uses
100% Zero-Knowledge Client Execution: All polynomial evaluations and cryptographic entropy calculations happen purely in your browser memory. No secrets are ever uploaded or transmitted.
Total Shares (N):5
Total parts to generate
Threshold (K):3
Required parts to unlock
3-of-5 Security Policy: Any 3 of the 5 shares will unlock the secret. Possessing 2 or fewer shares mathematically reveals 0% of the secret.

Generated Cryptographic Shares

Enter secret text and click split to generate cryptographically independent shares.
Tool Overview & Guide

What is Shamir's Secret Splitter?

Split sensitive passwords, crypto recovery seed phrases, and confidential master keys into cryptographic shares using Shamir's Secret Sharing (SSS) algorithm. Reconstruct the original secret only when a minimum threshold (K-of-N) of shares are combined, 100% client-side in your browser.

How to use Shamir's Secret Splitter

3 simple steps to complete your task directly in your browser:

  1. Choose Split or Combine Mode

    Select Split to divide a sensitive text into independent shares, or Combine to paste existing shares and mathematically reconstruct the original secret.

  2. Configure Threshold Parameters

    Choose the total number of shares to generate (N, up to 10) and the minimum threshold required to reconstruct the secret (K <= N, e.g. 3 of 5).

  3. Distribute or Reconstruct Secret

    Safely distribute shares to trusted custodians or hardware backups. Any K shares can reconstruct the secret, while K-1 shares reveal mathematically zero information.

Common uses

  • Crypto Wallet Seed Phrase Backup: Split 12 or 24-word BIP39 seed phrases among family members or safety deposit boxes so no single location can access funds.
  • Corporate Master Password Escrow: Ensure root database or encryption credentials can only be unlocked when 3 out of 5 company executives cooperate.
  • Disaster Recovery & Inheritance: Protect critical master keys against sudden loss while preventing unauthorized unilateral access.
  • Zero-Knowledge Secret Storage: Store separate shares across distinct cloud drives without trusting any single cloud vendor.
