Multiple Random Picker
Picks N unique items from your list.
The Multiple Random Picker draws several items at once from any list you paste in. Choose whether picks are unique (without replacement) or can repeat (with replacement), which makes it handy for everything from selecting a few giveaway winners to dealing out cards. Because the draw uses your browser's Web Crypto API, every subset is equally likely.
Paste. Paste or type your items, one per line, into the list.

Frequently asked questions
What is replacement?
With replacement, an item can be picked more than once. Without replacement, each pick is unique — that's the default.
Is the order significant?
No. The displayed order is just the order in which items were drawn, but every possible subset has an equal chance of being chosen.
Is it really random?
Yes. Picks come from the Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues), which produces cryptographically sound, unbiased results — no predictable patterns.
Does my list get sent anywhere?
No. Everything runs entirely in your browser, so your list is never uploaded to any server, and the tool works offline.

- Pick several names at once, not one slow draw at a time
When you need three winners or five volunteers, drawing them one by one invites doubt and double-takes. Here's how a multiple random picker deals a whole batch of unique names in a single click, and when to allow repeats.
- Draw a random-sized sample from a list, not just a fixed number
Sometimes you don't want exactly five — you want "a few, but I don't want to decide how many." Here's how a random subset picker draws both the size and the members of a sample, and when that beats picking a fixed count.
- Pick one thing at random from any list — fairly
When a group can't agree on who goes first or which option wins, the honest move is a flat, equal-odds draw. Here's how a random single picker does exactly that, plus the no-repeats and seed options that make it more than a coin flip.
- Draw a random card when you don't have a deck handy
Playing cards, jokers, or a tarot spread — an online card draw gives you a genuinely shuffled pull without a physical deck. Here's how a fair digital draw works, what 'without replacement' means, and where reversed tarot fits in.
- Shuffling a list without bias: the one-line mistake almost everyone makes
The most popular way to shuffle a list on the web is also subtly broken. Here's why sort-by-random gives you a lopsided order, what a fair shuffle actually looks like, and when you want a shuffle versus a draw.
