Our Random Name Picker uses Web Cryptography API (CSPRNG) algorithms to guarantee truly unbiased random selections. Every single entry has an exact, provably equal probability of being picked.
Need to run raffle drawings where participants have multiple entries or tickets? Simply append a weight to any line (e.g. John = 5). Our engine automatically calculates weighted probabilities for fair contest draws.
When picking multiple winners or running elimination raffles, enable Elimination Mode. Selected winners are automatically removed from the pool so no participant is picked twice in the same session.
Add excitement to live streams, classrooms, and webinars! Switch to the Lucky Spin Wheel tab for physics-based wheel spinning, or enable Secret Draw Mode for dramatic full-screen winner announcements with confetti.
Easily divide students, employees, or players into fair teams. Select the Team Generator mode, choose your desired number of teams, and our algorithm instantly shuffles entries into balanced group lists.
Your data stays completely private. All list cleaning, duplicate removal, file imports (TXT/CSV), and drawing logic execute locally inside your browser. No list names or emails are transmitted over the internet.
