Random Picker
Enter a list and let it pick one item at random.
Enter a list of options and let the tool choose one at random. Type or paste your choices one per line, and it shows how many items you have and each one's chance of winning; press Randomize Selection and it spotlights the pick. It's handy for prize draws, choosing where to eat, assigning a task, or settling any decision fairly. Everything runs in your browser and your list is never uploaded.
Enter your options
Type or paste your choices into the box, one per line. As you type, Total Items counts the non-empty lines — blank lines and spaces around an entry are ignored — and Winning Chance shows each item's probability, which is 100 divided by the number of items, to two decimals. So ten items each read 10.00%, and four items each read 25.00%. Randomize Selection then draws one line and displays it as the selection.
How it picks
Every item has exactly the same chance. The winner is a uniform random pick from your list using the browser's Math.random, with no weighting and no bias toward longer, shorter, earlier or later entries. After a pick, the list is hidden and the result is spotlighted on its own; Pick Another returns you to the full list so you can draw again. Your list itself is left unchanged between picks.
Repeats between picks
The tool does not remove a chosen item, so every Randomize Selection draws from the whole list again — which means the same item can win twice in a row across separate picks. It selects one winner at a time and has no multi-winner or elimination mode. For a draw where each entry should win only once (like pulling names without putting them back), delete the last winner from the list yourself before picking again. Everything is computed in your browser.
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I enter my items?
One per line in the box. Blank lines and spaces around an entry are ignored, and the Total Items counter shows how many valid lines it found.
Does every item have the same chance of winning?
Yes. Each item's chance is 100 divided by the number of items — shown live as Winning Chance — and the winner is a uniform random pick with no weighting.
Does it avoid picking the same item twice?
No. It does not remove a winner, so picking again draws from the whole list and the same item can come up again. Delete the last winner yourself if you need draws without repeats.
Can it choose more than one winner at once?
No. It selects a single item per pick; use Pick Another to draw again from the same list. Everything runs locally in your browser and your list is not uploaded.
