GetNow.date is a simple API for working with dates and time. It helps with formatting, timezones and dynamic year values across websites, emails and documents. Instead of hardcoding dates or relying on client-side logic, you can fetch consistent values from one place. Useful for footers, scheduled content and anything that tends to break around New Year.
What to expect from an ideal product
- Automatically updates year values in footers, copyright notices, and date references without manual intervention each January
- Provides consistent timezone handling so scheduled posts and events display correct times regardless of user location during year transitions
- Eliminates hardcoded dates that break when New Year arrives by pulling current date values from a reliable API source
- Keeps email campaigns and automated content accurate by fetching real-time date information instead of using static values
- Prevents website downtime and broken displays by centralizing all date logic in one place that handles year rollovers seamlessly
