Random Date / Time Picker
Random date or time in a range.

It's handy for scheduling, sampling, giveaways, and picking surprise dates, with options to limit results to weekdays or round times to neat intervals. Set your range, pick, and you're done.

Frequently asked questions
Why "weekdays only"?
Schedulers and giveaways often need a business-day date, so this option skips weekends when it draws a date.
What does granularity do?
It rounds time results to the nearest N minutes, so you get tidy round times instead of odd values.
Is the result genuinely random?
Yes. Dates and times are drawn with the Web Crypto API, so every value in your range has an equal, unbiased chance.
Is anything I enter sent online?
No. The picker runs entirely in your browser, so your range settings stay on your device and it works offline.
