Unique Identifiers on Demand

Every database record, every API resource, every distributed system event needs a unique identifier. Sequential integers work in a single database, but the moment you have multiple services writing records or merging datasets, collisions become a real problem. UUIDs solve this by generating 128-bit identifiers that are statistically guaranteed to be unique across space and time.

Our generator produces cryptographically random UUID v4 values by default, which is the most widely used format in modern software. You can also generate v1 UUIDs that encode a timestamp and machine identifier, or the newer v7 format that combines time-ordering with randomness for better database index performance. Each format has specific advantages depending on your use case.

Generate one UUID or a hundred at once. Copy them individually or as a batch. The generation runs entirely in your browser using the Web Crypto API, so no network requests are made and no identifiers are stored or logged anywhere.

Flexible UUID Generation

Every format you need

UUID v4 (Random)

Cryptographically random 128-bit identifiers. The standard choice for most applications.

UUID v1 (Timestamp)

Time-based UUIDs that encode creation time and node identity for traceability.

Bulk Generation

Generate up to 100 UUIDs at once. Perfect for seeding databases or test fixtures.

Multiple Formats

Output with or without hyphens, uppercase or lowercase, wrapped in quotes or bare.

One-Click Copy

Click any UUID to copy it instantly. Copy all generated values as a list.

Browser-Based

Uses the Web Crypto API. No server calls, no logging, no data leaves your machine.
