UUID generator

Generate universally unique identifiers (version 4) — as many as you need, copy-ready.

About this tool

UUIDs here are version 4 — 122 bits of randomness from your browser’s cryptographic random generator (crypto.randomUUID / getRandomValues), the same quality operating systems produce. The odds of a collision are effectively zero: you could generate a billion a second for a century and still expect no duplicates.

Common questions

What is a UUID used for? Unique IDs for database rows, files, sessions, and API resources — anywhere many systems must mint IDs without coordinating or colliding.

Are these stored anywhere? No. They are generated on your device and shown only to you; the page keeps no copy.

Private by design: this tool runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you type or open here is uploaded, stored, or tracked.
