What is Unix Time?

Unix time (also known as Epoch time or POSIX time) measures time as the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC. It is used extensively in programming and operating systems as a simple, timezone-independent way to track time.

Seconds vs Milliseconds

This tool auto-detects whether your timestamp is in seconds (10-digit) or milliseconds (13-digit). JavaScript's Date.now() returns milliseconds, while many server-side systems use seconds. Both formats are shown in the parsed details for easy reference.
