GoCrack is a management frontend and API server for coordinating password cracking tasks, currently supporting hashcat 6.x+ as a cracking engine. It is written in Go and lets teams distribute and track cracking jobs across workers.

Use cases

  • manage hashcat password cracking tasks from a web UI
  • distribute cracking jobs across multiple workers
  • track status of password cracking tasks via an API
  • self-host a frontend for hashcat
  • coordinate team-based password recovery jobs

When to choose

  • you run hashcat and need multi-user, multi-worker task management
  • you want an API-driven frontend for cracking jobs
  • you need a self-hosted cracking management platform

When to avoid

  • you only need to run hashcat locally for a one-off crack
  • you use cracking engines other than hashcat
  • you need a fully GUI desktop cracking tool like Hashcat's own interfaces
