Are these real people?

No. Every user is generated from pools of names, cities and formats. No record corresponds to a real person.

Which nationalities are available?

Ten: US, Canada, UK, Australia, Germany, France, Spain, Netherlands, Ireland and New Zealand, selectable alone or in combination.

Can I get the same users again?

Yes. Pass a seed string and the same request returns byte-identical users, which makes fixtures reproducible.

From 1 to 100 users per request, filtered by gender and nationality, for 1 token.

Random User API

Realistic fake users for ten countries, internally consistent and seedable, never real people

Generate realistic, fully coherent fake users for demos, mockups, load tests and seeded test fixtures — never real people. Ten nationalities (US, CA, GB, AU, DE, FR, ES, NL, IE, NZ), each internally consistent: a German user gets a German name, a real German city with correct coordinates and timezone, a German street, postcode and phone format; a Canadian gets an A1A 1A1 postcode. Every user carries title and full name, gender, email on RFC-2606 reserved domains (can never reach a real inbox), username, login block with memorable password and UUID, landline and mobile in national formats, full address with coordinates and IANA timezone, date of birth and age, registration date, and avatar image URLs in three sizes. Request up to 100 users per call, restrict nationalities with nat=DE,FR, force gender, and — the killer feature for tests — pass seed=anything to get byte-identical reproducible output on every call. No database, no state, no third-party calls at request time.

Every call needs an X-Api-Key header. A free key includes 500 tokens a month, no card required. 1 token per call, so the free plan covers about 500 calls a month.
