About the Unit Converter

A free all-in-one unit converter built for everyday use — cooking, travel, coding, studying, and more.

What it is

The Unit Converter handles twelve measurement categories in one place. Pick a category, choose your units, type a value — the result appears instantly. Edit either side and the other updates live; a swap button flips the direction in one tap. No page reloads, no sign-up, no data sent anywhere.

Each category also shows a panel of common conversions so you can grab frequently needed answers without typing at all.

How conversion works

All linear conversions go via a base unit — for example, length converts through metres. Any value is first converted to the base, then converted to the target. This approach keeps all factor relationships exact and makes it trivial to add new units.

Temperature is the exception: Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, and Rankine each have an offset, so they use explicit formulas (e.g. °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32) rather than a single scale factor. The base unit for temperature is Celsius.

Fuel economy is also non-linear because L/100 km and MPG are reciprocal scales. The converter applies the correct reciprocal transformation for each direction.

Digital storage uses binary prefixes (IEC): 1 KB = 1024 bytes, 1 MB = 1024 KB, and so on. Bit-rate units (Kb, Mb, Gb) use SI decimal factors (1 Mb = 1,000,000 bits).

Convert km to miles, Celsius to Fahrenheit, and litres to gallons when abroad.

Students & researchers

Switch between SI and imperial for physics, chemistry, and engineering problems.

Cooks & bakers

Convert between cups, tablespoons, ml, and grams when following international recipes.

Developers & IT

Convert between bits, bytes, MB, GB, and TB when working with storage or bandwidth.
