Doggy64 🐶

This program can encode arbitrary text or data into a series of doggy sounds

For example, "Hello world!" becomes:

howl arrrrf blat moan rrrr arrrrf yarf grrr rrrrr chew yarr sniffle rrrr arrrrf yaff grr

This works by mapping the base64 character set to a number of dog noises.

Why Doggy64?

A massive generational step forward in dog-based encoding technology, Doggy64 boasts massive improvements over its predecessor, doggymorse.

Versatility 🪛

While doggymorse could only encode text, and wasn't case sensitive, doggy64 can encode any arbitrary data, images, video, web-traffic, your diary, you name it!

Blazing Fast 🔥

Encode and decode massive files like the 12 kiB sample image dog.jpg in mere fractions of a second! We used ALGORITHMS and AI to ensure enterprise-grade SCALABILITY. Never let performance hold you back.

Space Efficiency 💾

Using state-of-the-art encoding ALGORITHMS we've reduced the space requirements from doggymorse to use up to 81% LESS SPACE. This allows you to store more data, images, etc., and stream more videos, while reducing your business's CLOUD costs and SAAS overhead.
