A client-side password meter combines compact neural networks to estimate guessability with a regression-weighted set of 21 characteristics that generate concrete text feedback and suggested password edits. A 4,509-participant online experiment finds the data-driven meter yields materially stronger passwords under a common 8-character composition policy while memorability does not decrease. Code and a live demo are open-sourced, and the meter runs with only a few megabytes sent to the browser.
