Generate sortable unique identifiers — ULIDs are time-based and lexicographically ordered
Yes, PivaBox ULID Generator is completely free to use. There are no charges, subscriptions, or hidden fees.
No. All ULID generation happens entirely in your browser using the <code>crypto.getRandomValues()</code> API. Your identifiers never leave your device.
A ULID (Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier) is a 26-character identifier that encodes a 48-bit timestamp followed by 80 bits of randomness. Unlike UUID v4 which is purely random, ULIDs sort chronologically by creation time, making them ideal for database primary keys. The Crockford Base32 encoding ensures readability and URL-safety. The first 10 characters represent the timestamp, and the remaining 16 characters provide uniqueness.
