Epoch time, decoded instantly
Paste a timestamp from a log, database row, or API response and see it as a local date, UTC, and ISO 8601. Or go the other way: pick a date and time and get the epoch value in seconds and milliseconds. The live ticker at the top always shows the current timestamp, one click from your clipboard.
Frequently asked questions
What is a Unix timestamp?
The number of seconds since January 1, 1970 UTC (the “epoch”). It's how most databases, APIs, and logs store time — compact and time-zone-free.
Seconds or milliseconds?
Both — the converter detects which one you pasted by magnitude (13-digit values are milliseconds, 10-digit are seconds) and tells you how it interpreted the input.
What about the year 2038 problem?
Timestamps stored as signed 32-bit integers overflow on January 19, 2038. Modern 64-bit systems are unaffected, and this converter handles dates far beyond that.
