Purpose-built starts
Open the tool already set up for your task.
Each session is shuffled once with Web Crypto. The animation only reveals a result already locked in.
Lists, names, feedback, and history stay in local browser storage. Analytics never receives candidate text.
Copy or export winners, teams, and orders. Reset rules make repeat sessions predictable.
Questions
What happens to my list?
Are picks actually random?
Yes. A session uses the browser's cryptographic random generator to lock a shuffled order before the reveal begins.
Can I avoid repeat winners?
Yes. Pick One and Pick Winners remove selected entries from the current cycle. You control when that cycle resets.
Does the site upload names?
No. Names and candidate lists remain on your device. Shared name shortlists are encoded in the link itself.
Can I use a CSV?
Yes. Import a CSV or paste names separated by lines, commas, or semicolons. Duplicate labels are removed.
