Expensive licenses. Clunky installs. Sluggish performance.
It's time to leave those behind.
Open your browser and start analyzing.
You spend more time fighting your tools than actually analyzing files. It doesn't have to be this way.
"License renewal is $400/year…
and it doubles every time we add a teammate."
Free forever
MIT open source. $0 for any team size. Stop worrying about licenses and focus on what matters.
"I need to analyze this now,
but setup takes 30 minutes…"
One click to launch
No installer, no admin rights. If you have a browser, you're ready to analyze — on any machine, anywhere.
"Open a large file and
the whole app freezes or crashes."
Handles GB+ files with ease
A native-speed engine lets you browse massive binaries smoothly — no freezing, no crashing.
Built for security researchers, CTF players, and developers alike.
You received a suspicious file and there's no time to install anything. Drop it into HexForge and instantly inspect headers, strings, and entropy — all from your browser.
Complex binary formats are hard to reason about in raw hex. Use the built-in node graph to visually map file structures, trace data flows, and build parsers — without writing a single line of code.
Stop hunting for the same patterns by hand. The built-in script console lets you automate repetitive workflows with a simple API that talks directly to the file buffer.
There's a better way to do the same work.
