UUID Generator

Generate one or many RFC 4122 v4 UUIDs with bulk copy support.

What is the UUID Generator?

A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is a 128-bit value used as a practically unique ID — for database rows, files, API keys and more. This generator creates random version 4 UUIDs that follow the RFC 4122 standard, either one at a time or in bulk when you need a batch. Developers reach for it whenever they need identifiers that will not collide without a central authority handing them out. Generation happens in your browser using secure randomness.

How to use the UUID Generator

  1. Choose how many UUIDs you want.
  2. Generate them.
  3. Copy a single UUID, or copy them all at once.

Frequently asked questions

What is a version 4 UUID?

A v4 UUID is generated from random numbers, which makes accidental collisions extremely unlikely.

Are the UUIDs truly unique?

They are not guaranteed unique in theory, but the odds of a clash are so tiny that they are treated as unique in practice.

Can I generate many at once?

Yes — set the count and generate a batch, then copy them all together.

Is the UUID generator free?

Yes, and it needs no account.
