About this tool

Generate sortable and random identifiers directly in your browser, with clear guidance on how each UUID version works and how to think about collision risk at scale.

Inputs, results and saved preferences stay in this browser.

When to use it

  • Use UUID v7, ULID, or UUID v6 for time-ordered records in modern databases.
  • Use UUID v3/v5 when you need deterministic IDs from stable namespace + name inputs.
  • Use UUID v4 or NanoID for high-entropy random identifiers in distributed systems.
