Random Subset Picker

Random number of items from your list.

Instead of picking just one item, this tool grabs a random handful — a subset whose size lands somewhere between the minimum and maximum you set. It's useful for choosing a few winners, sampling a list, or building a surprise short-list. Both the size and the members are chosen fairly.

Paste. Enter your items, one per line, and set the minimum and maximum subset size.

How it works

  1. Paste. Enter your items, one per line, and set the minimum and maximum subset size.
  2. Pick. Click "Pick subset" to draw a random-sized handful from the list.
  3. Re-roll. Click again for a different subset whenever you want.

Frequently asked questions

How is subset size chosen?

The size is picked uniformly at random in the inclusive range from your minimum to your maximum, so every allowed size is equally likely.

Does order matter?

No. The output shows the order in which items were drawn, but every possible subset has an equal chance of being chosen.

Is the draw really random?

Yes. Both the size and the items are selected with the Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues) for unbiased, repeat-free sampling.

Is my list uploaded?

No. The whole pick happens in your browser and your list is never sent to a server, so it works even offline.
