Frequently Asked Questions

Is this tool really free?
Yes, completely free with no limits. No sign-up, no hidden fees, no watermarks on videos.
Is the draw truly random?
Yes. We use crypto.getRandomValues(), the same cryptographic randomness used by password managers and security software. It's far more random than Math.random().
Is my data safe?
Your data never leaves your browser. Everything runs 100% client-side — no uploads, no server processing, no database storage. Close the tab and it's gone.
Can I pick multiple winners?
Yes! Select up to 5 winners per draw. Each winner is picked sequentially with their own animation. Previous winners are automatically excluded from subsequent picks.
What video format is downloaded?
The video is exported as WebM, which works on most platforms. For the best compatibility, record in Chrome or Edge. The video is suitable for social media sharing on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube.
Can I use this to pick an Instagram giveaway winner?
Absolutely! Export your Instagram comments as a CSV (using any comment exporter tool), upload it here, and run the draw. Record the animation to share in your Instagram Stories as proof of a fair draw. You can also simply copy and paste the commenter names.
How do I run a fair Facebook competition draw?
Paste the names of everyone who entered your Facebook competition, run the animated draw, and download the video. The audit trail includes a timestamp, unique draw ID, and entry count — everything you need to prove the draw was fair. Don't forget to use our T&C Generator to create proper competition rules.
Does this work on mobile?
Yes! The tool is fully responsive and works on phones, tablets, and desktops. You can paste entries and run draws on any device. Video recording works best on desktop browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox).
What animation styles are available?
Choose from 5 professional animation styles: Slot Machine (vertical scrolling reel), Roulette (spinning wheel), Cards (shuffling deck), Raffle Drum (tumbling cage), and Name Rain (cascading names). All styles use the same cryptographic randomness and can be recorded as video.
