Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get my comments into the tool?

Open your Instagram post on desktop, click "View all comments", select and copy the comments, then paste them into the tool — one per line in @username: comment format.

Can I filter by keyword?

Yes. Enter a required keyword (like "done" or "entered") and only comments containing that word will be eligible. The tool also removes duplicate entries from the same user.

Can I re-draw if a winner doesn't respond?

Yes. Click "Exclude & re-draw" next to any winner to remove them and pick a new winner from the remaining qualified commenters.

Do I need to log in or connect my Instagram account?

No. There is no login, no account connection, and no permissions request — you paste comments in as text and the draw runs in your browser. Nothing about your account is accessed or stored.

Is the picker really free, with no entry limit?

Yes. There is no cap on how many comments you paste, no watermark, and no paid tier gating the draw. It runs client-side, so there is nothing for us to meter.

Is the winner selection genuinely random?

Yes — the draw uses the browser's built-in random number generator over the pool of qualified entries after filtering and de-duplication. Every eligible entry has the same chance. For contests with legal requirements, screen-record the draw: the animation gives you a verifiable moment to show entrants.

Does it work for Facebook giveaways too?

Yes. The tool works on any pasted list of comments in the same one-per-line format, so Facebook, TikTok, or YouTube comments work as well as Instagram.
