Free Random List Generator
Running a giveaway or raffle? NToolHub’s Random List Generator draws fair winners from any list you paste — names, ticket numbers, or entries. Control how many picks to draw and whether the same entry can win twice. Every draw is uniformly random, and results appear instantly with one-click copying for announcing winners.
How to Use the Random List Generator
- Paste your entries, one per line.
- Set how many winners to draw and whether repeats are allowed.
- Click “Draw Random Picks” for instant, fair results.
Features
The tool accepts lists of any size, draws between 1 and 500 picks per round, and supports both with-replacement and without-replacement draws. Duplicate prevention is automatic when repeats are disabled, and an over-draw is caught with a clear message instead of a wrong result.
Benefits & Use Cases
Transparent randomness builds trust in giveaways, classroom picks, and team assignments — everyone can see the process is unbiased. Doing it locally means your entry list stays private, which matters for customer or employee data.
Tips
Disable repeats for winner draws so nobody wins twice. For door-prize style draws where each entry should win at most once, draw all winners in a single round. Keep your original list saved in case you need to re-draw.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the drawing really fair?
Yes. Each draw picks uniformly at random using your browser’s built-in random source, so every remaining entry has an equal chance.
What does allow repeats mean?
With repeats allowed, the same entry can be picked more than once, like rolling dice. With repeats off, each entry can only be drawn once, like pulling names from a hat.
How many entries can I paste?
There is no practical limit. Paste hundreds or thousands of lines and the tool handles them instantly.
Can I prove the draw was random?
The draw happens locally in your browser with no server involvement. For audited draws, screen-record the process as you click.
