About SpinDuty

SpinDuty is a free random name picker built around one idea: the fastest way to make a choice everyone accepts is to let chance make it, in the open.

Why we built it

Every group runs into the same small problem — who goes first, who does the task nobody wants, whose turn it is. Picking by hand invites accusations of favoritism, and most online tools bury the answer behind sign-ups, clutter, or clunky interfaces. We wanted something you could open on any device, use in ten seconds, and trust to be genuinely fair.

How it stays fair

When you spin, SpinDuty selects the winner first using your browser's random number generator, then animates the wheel to land on that result. Every name occupies an equal segment, so everyone has the same odds — the animation is just for show. Want to weight the draw? Add a name twice and it gets two segments. Nothing is predetermined and nothing can be nudged.

Private by design

There are no accounts and no servers storing your lists. The names you add live only in your own browser so your wheel is ready next time you visit. Details are on the privacy page. SpinDuty is supported by unobtrusive ads, which is what keeps it free for everyone.

Who it's for

Teachers cold-calling students, teams rotating chores and standups, families settling whose turn it is, and streamers running live giveaways all use the same wheel. See the use cases for real examples, or just open the wheel and give it a spin.
