What is ULID Generator Online?

ULIDs solve the main weakness of UUID v4 for databases: they are not sortable. A ULID encodes a millisecond-precision timestamp in the first 10 characters, followed by 16 characters of cryptographic randomness. This makes ULIDs ideal for event logs, ordered feeds, and any system that benefits from natural chronological ordering without sacrificing uniqueness.

How to Use ULID Generator Online

  1. Click "Generate" to instantly produce a new ULID.
  2. The timestamp portion on the left encodes the current millisecond.
  3. Copy the result with the Copy button or click the value.

Example

A 26-character ULID

Output

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a ULID compare to UUID?

ULID is 26 characters vs 36 for UUID, is URL-safe (no hyphens), and sorts chronologically. UUID v4 is purely random and does not sort.

Is a ULID case-sensitive?

ULIDs are case-insensitive by spec. Uppercase is canonical, but lowercase variants are equivalent.
