pydictor is a Python-based wordlist (dictionary) builder for brute-force and dictionary attacks. It generates general, custom, and social-engineering password wordlists with filtering, leet mode, and plugin/encode extension support.

Use cases

• generate a password wordlist for brute-force attacks
• build a custom dictionary based on web content
• create a social engineering password list from personal info
• filter and dedupe an existing wordlist by length or regex
• generate weak password lists for penetration testing

When to choose

• you need highly customizable password wordlists for authorized penetration tests
• you want leet-mode, regex filtering, or plugin-extendable dictionary generation
• you need a cross-platform Python 2/3 compatible wordlist tool

When to avoid

• you need a general-purpose password manager or generator for real credentials
• you want a GUI-based cracking tool like hashcat with GPU acceleration
• attacking targets without consent - unauthorized use is illegal
