What timestamps hide inside IDs?
Modern ID formats often embed creation time: UUID v7 and ULID store Unix milliseconds; snowflakes pack a timestamp plus worker/process bits.
Paste an ID to inspect version/variant (UUID), entropy (ULID), or worker/increment fields (snowflake) without leaving the browser.
How to use this tool
- Paste a UUID, 26-character ULID, or numeric snowflake.
- Read the decoded fields and ISO timestamp when present.
Frequently asked questions
Which snowflake epoch is used?
Primary fields use the Twitter epoch; a Discord-epoch timestamp is also shown for convenience.
Is my data sent to a server?
UUID / ULID / Snowflake Decoder runs 100% in your browser. Inputs stay on your device and are not logged or stored by stbox servers.
