Fair, private, and built for repeat use
PickForMe behaves more like a lightweight decision workspace than a one-off animation. It works well for classrooms, raffles, teams, and everyday decisions that happen again and again.
Crypto random source
Results use the browser crypto random source where available instead of relying on plain Math.random.
Lists stay local
Reusable lists and history are stored in this browser. No account is required for the core workflow.
Weights and no-repeat rounds
Use text like Pizza | 3 for preferences, or enable elimination mode when results should not repeat.
Share and embed
Copy tool links, share configured lists, or embed a picker inside another page.
Copy-ready list templates

Frequently asked questions
Can I choose the number of groups?
Yes. Use the by-team-count mode to choose how many groups to create from the roster.
Can I make groups of a specific size?
Yes. Switch to the by-team-size mode and set how many people should be in each group.
What happens when the roster does not divide evenly?
PickForMe keeps every participant in the output and creates the fairest possible group sizes. For example, an uneven roster may produce one smaller final group.
