About Us | SAIdNumberGen.co.za

We built this South African ID Generator to solve a simple but critical need: generating realistic, algorithmically correct test data without compromising real identities..

Our Story

Founded in 2024, our team—a group of South African developers—noticed how often software projects needed test ID numbers. Rather than risking privacy violations with real data or using flawed patterns, we engineered this tool to:

• Generate IDs that follow exact government specifications (YYMMDD + gender digit + checksum)
• Prioritize speed and accuracy for testing workflows
• Eliminate ethical concerns with 100% synthetic generation

Who Uses This?

• 🏢 Software Teams: Populate test databases safely
• 🎓 Students: Learn about ID number algorithms
• 🛡️ Compliance Officers: Verify system handling of ID formats

"We believe ethical test data shouldn’t be hard to find."
