How Our Instagram Comment Picker Works
A transparent, fair, and easy-to-use process for selecting random winners
The Complete Process
Instagram URL Input
Simply paste your Instagram post URL (works with both regular posts and reels). Our system automatically extracts the post ID and validates the URL format to ensure compatibility.
Comment Extraction
Our secure API fetches all comments from your Instagram post, including usernames, comment text, and timestamps. We process this data locally to ensure privacy and security.
Weight Management
Assign different weights to participants to adjust their winning chances. Perfect for giving loyal customers or multiple entries higher odds. Each participant starts with a weight of 1 (equal chances).
True Random Selection with Random.org
We use Random.org's atmospheric noise-based true random number generation for ultimate fairness. Our weighted algorithm ensures every participant has the exact probability based on their assigned weight, with true randomness that's impossible to predict or manipulate.

Powered by Random.org - True Randomness
We integrate with Random.org, the world's most trusted source of true random numbers. Unlike computer-generated "pseudo-random" numbers, Random.org uses atmospheric noise to create genuine randomness that's impossible to predict.
• Atmospheric noise source = truly unpredictable
• Used by lotteries and scientific research worldwide
• Automatic fallback to secure local random if unavailable
• Complete transparency in random number generation
Ultimate Fairness with Random.org
We use Random.org's atmospheric noise-based true random number generation combined with our weighted probability system to ensure complete fairness. Here's how it works:
Total Weight = Sum of all participant weights
Win Probability = (Participant Weight ÷ Total Weight) × 100%
Random Number = Random.org atmospheric noise (truly unpredictable)
Winner Selection = True random × Weighted probability
Random.org uses atmospheric noise to generate truly random numbers that are impossible to predict or manipulate. Combined with our mathematical approach, this guarantees that each participant's chance of winning is exactly proportional to their assigned weight - no bias, no manipulation, pure fairness!
