UUID Tools

Free online UUID tools to generate and validate universally Unique Identifiers.

What are UUID Tools?

UUID Tools is a collection of utilities for working with Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs). UUIDs are 128-bit values used to uniquely identify information in distributed systems.

Our tools can generate RFC 4122 v4 random UUIDs in batch, and validate UUID strings with version and variant detection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a UUID?
A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is a 128-bit value represented as 32 hex digits in 5 groups (8-4-4-4-12).
What is UUID v4?
UUID v4 uses random numbers to generate the identifier. It is the most common version, suitable for database keys and tokens.
Can UUIDs collide?
The probability is astronomically low. You would need about 2.71 x 10^18 UUIDs for a 50% collision chance.
