Hello @mcewanbr! 👋

1Password in the browser has a standalone password generator: Create a custom password

But, generally, the idea is that you'll save all of your passwords in 1Password so the workflow in the 1Password for Mac app incorporates both the generation of passwords and the saving of them so that you don't have to do both steps separately with the insecurity of a middle-step of copying generated passwords to your clipboard just so that you can paste them back into 1Password.

I hope that helps. 🙂
