What Is a Random Number Generator?

A random number generator (RNG) is a tool that produces numbers that cannot be predicted. Random number generators are used whenever you need a fair, unbiased selection — from picking raffle winners and running competition draws to assigning teams and choosing lottery numbers.

There are two types of random number generators: pseudo-random generators (like JavaScript's Math.random()) which use mathematical formulas and are technically predictable, and cryptographically secure generators (like crypto.getRandomValues()) which use hardware-level entropy and are virtually impossible to predict.

Our random number generator uses cryptographic randomness — the same technology used by password managers, encryption software, and security systems. This makes it suitable for any situation where fairness and unpredictability matter, including official competition draws, raffle ticket selections, and giveaway winners.

Why Use Our Random Number Generator?

More than just a basic number picker — get cryptographic security, an animated reveal, and a verifiable audit trail, all completely free.

Cryptographically Secure

Uses crypto.getRandomValues() for true randomness — far stronger than Math.random() used by most online generators.

100% Client-Side

No data is sent to any server. Your random numbers are generated entirely in your browser for complete privacy.

Full Audit Trail

Every draw gets a unique ID, timestamp, and recorded settings — proof that your random number selection was fair and transparent.

Video Recording

Record the animated number reveal as a downloadable video — perfect for sharing competition draws on social media.

No Duplicates Mode

Generate multiple unique random numbers with no repeats — ideal for raffle draws where each number must be different.

Flexible Ranges

Generate random numbers from 1–10, 1–100, 1–1000, or any custom range up to 1 billion. Quick presets for common ranges.

Random Number Generator FAQ

Is this random number generator truly random?
Yes. Our random number generator uses crypto.getRandomValues(), the same cryptographic randomness used by password managers and security software. It produces true random numbers that are far more unpredictable than Math.random() used by most basic online generators.
Can I generate a random number between 1 and 100?
Yes! Use the “1–100” quick preset button, or manually set 1 as your minimum and 100 as your maximum. You can also generate random numbers between 1 and 10, 1 and 50, 1 and 500, 1 and 1000, or any custom range you need.
Can I use this for official competition draws?
This random number generator provides cryptographically secure results with a full audit trail (timestamp, draw ID, range, results) and optional video recording. For name-based draws, we also offer a Pick a Winner tool. For a full overview of Australian competition law and permits, see our guide to running competitions and state-by-state permits guide.
What is the maximum range for this random number generator?
You can generate random numbers from 0 up to 999,999,999 (nearly 1 billion). This covers virtually any raffle, lottery, or competition draw scenario you might need.
Can I generate random numbers with no repeats?
Yes! By default, our random number generator does not allow duplicates. Each number in your result set will be unique. You can toggle the “Allow duplicates” option if you need numbers that can repeat.
Is this random number generator better than Google’s?
Our random number generator uses crypto.getRandomValues() for cryptographic-grade randomness, which is stronger than basic pseudo-random generators. You also get features Google’s doesn’t offer: an audit trail with a unique draw ID and timestamp, video recording of the draw, and multi-number generation with no-duplicates mode.
Can I use this random number generator for raffle ticket draws?
Absolutely! Set the range to match your raffle ticket numbers (e.g. 1–500), generate the winning number, and copy the result with the full audit trail. If you have a list of names instead of numbers, try our Pick a Winner tool. For planning tips, see our competition planning guide.
How many random numbers can I generate at once?
You can generate 1, 2, 3, 5, or 10 random numbers in a single draw. Each number is revealed with its own animated ball. You can run as many draws as you like — the history panel keeps track of every result.
Is this random number generator free to use?
Yes, completely free with no sign-up required. There are no limits on how many times you can generate random numbers. The tool runs entirely in your browser — no data is sent to any server.
Can I record the random number draw as video?
Yes! When you click Generate, you’ll be asked if you want to record the draw. The animated number reveal is captured as a downloadable video file (WebM format) that you can share on social media or use as proof of a fair draw.
