YouTube Comment Picker – Random Comment Selector Tool

YouTube Comment Picker

Pick a random winner from your YouTube comments for giveaways.

The Fairest Way to Pick a YouTube Winner

Running a giveaway on your YouTube channel is one of the best ways to increase engagement and subscribers. But counting comments manually is impossible. Our **Random Comment Picker** automates the process, ensuring a fair, transparent, and exciting draw for your community.

Anti-Spam Filter

Our "Filter Duplicates" feature ensures users who comment 50 times only get one entry, keeping it fair for everyone.

Visual Shuffle

Record your screen! The tool features a fun name-shuffling animation before revealing the winner to build hype.

100% Secure

We use the official YouTube Data API. We do not require your channel login or password.


How to Run a Successful YouTube Giveaway

Giveaways can explode your channel growth if done correctly. Here is the blueprint:

1. Clear Rules

In your video, clearly state what users need to do. Usually, it's "Subscribe, Like, and Leave a Comment." Be specific about the comment (e.g., "Comment your favorite pizza topping"). This helps you spot real entries vs. generic bots.

2. Use a Random Picker

Never pick a winner by scrolling manually. Viewers will accuse you of bias. Using a tool like ours provides a mathematical, unbiased selection. Screen record the process of clicking "Pick Winner" and post it on your Community Tab or Instagram Stories for proof.

3. Verify the Winner

Once the tool picks a user, click the "View on YouTube" button. Check their channel to ensure they aren't a bot account. Reply to their comment pinned to the top of your video to notify them.
Warning: Watch out for scammers impersonating you in the comments. Never ask winners to message you on WhatsApp.

Frequently Asked Questions

By default, no. We look for top-level comments to keep entries clean. However, you can toggle "Include Replies" on if you want to count every single message.

The tool fetches up to 2,000 comments for performance reasons. For most channels, this covers the entire comment section.

Ensure the video is Public (not Unlisted/Private). Also, check if you pasted the correct link. Sometimes, YouTube API quotas limit usage; if that happens, try again in a few hours.
