Event-ready random picker

Lucky Draw

A fullscreen random winner picker for events, annual parties and quick tests.

How to use

From a name list to a big-screen moment.

Paste or import participants, prepare one or more prizes, check the eligible count, then press Start Draw. Use Space to stop on cue and export a clear result log when the event ends.

Key features

Built for a host, not a spreadsheet.

Choose Rolling Names or Grid Highlight, draw up to ten people per round, move between prizes with presentation-remotes, enter fullscreen stage mode, add a local background, and keep a searchable winner history.

Fairness and privacy

Selection first. Animation second.

Every final pick uses unbiased, without-replacement sampling from crypto.getRandomValues(). All participant data stays on this device by default; there is no account, upload, weighting, preset winner or hidden control.

Common uses

One stage, many occasions.

Use it for annual dinners, company celebrations, team events, launches, classrooms, random roll calls, party games, community gatherings and personal tests.

Important

Designed for informal events.

This tool provides browser-based random selection for informal events. For regulated, financial or legally binding drawings, use an independently audited service.

Good to know

Lucky Draw FAQ

Practical answers for planning the room, the list and the result handoff.

Is the lucky draw random?

Yes. Final winners are selected with the browser crypto.getRandomValues secure random source before the presentation animation begins. The animation never decides the result.

Can the same person win twice?

You decide. The default blocks repeat winners across the event; you can instead block repeats per prize or allow repeats.

Can I import names from Excel?

Yes. Copy a single Excel column and paste it into the participant box, or export your sheet as CSV and import name, number, department, group and note fields.

Is participant data uploaded?

No. Participant lists, settings and results stay in your browser. Background and prize images use browser-local storage.

Can I use it on a projector?

Yes. Fullscreen stage mode hides editing controls and keeps winner names large for TVs, projectors and LED screens.

Will it work without internet?

After the page and its local assets have loaded, an interrupted connection does not affect an active draw. Reloading offline requires the browser to have cached the page.

Can I export winners?

Yes. Export winner history as a UTF-8 BOM CSV for Excel, and export the complete activity as JSON for backup or transfer.
