UUID v4

Universally Unique Identifier

A UUID is a 128-bit randomly generated identifier represented as 32 hexadecimal characters split into 5 groups with hyphens. UUID v4 is entirely random, making collisions practically impossible.

ULID

Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable ID

A ULID encodes a timestamp in the first 10 characters and randomness in the remaining 16. This makes ULIDs sortable by creation time — a major advantage over UUIDs in databases and logs.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about UUIDs, ULIDs, and this generator tool.

What is a UUID and why is it used?

UUID stands for Universally Unique Identifier. It is a 128-bit label used to uniquely identify objects in computer systems. UUIDs are used in databases as primary keys, in APIs as resource identifiers, and in distributed systems where unique IDs must be generated without a central coordinator — eliminating the risk of duplicate IDs.

Can two generated UUIDs ever be the same?

Technically yes, but the probability is astronomically low. UUID v4 generates 2¹²² possible values — roughly 5.3 × 10³⁶. The chance of generating a duplicate even across billions of IDs is negligible for any practical use case. You can treat them as practically unique.

When should I use ULID instead of UUID?

Use ULID when the order of creation matters. Because ULIDs embed a millisecond-precision timestamp, they sort chronologically by default — making them ideal for database primary keys, event logs, order IDs, and any scenario where you want to know which record was created first without storing a separate timestamp column.

Are the generated IDs truly random and unique?

Yes. UUID v4 uses your browser’s crypto.getRandomValues() API — a cryptographically secure random number generator — ensuring high-quality randomness. ULID combines the current timestamp with cryptographic randomness for the remaining bits.
