Draw Secret Santa names in one click
Type everyone’s names, hit draw, and Pickly randomly assigns each person someone to buy a gift for. The draw always produces a valid circle where no one is assigned themselves and everyone both gives and receives once.
Keeping it secret
For an in-person group, the organizer can reveal each line privately — screenshot a single row and send it to that person, or read them out one at a time. Because it draws instantly, you can redraw as many times as you like before sharing.
Great for any group
Offices, families, friend groups, classrooms — it works for any size from three people up. No sign-up, no email addresses, and names never leave your browser.
How does the Secret Santa generator work?
Enter everyone's names and draw. Each person is randomly assigned someone else to give a gift to, and no one is ever assigned themselves.
Can I keep the assignments secret?
The organizer can screenshot or note each line privately. For a fully blind draw, have one person run it and share each assignment individually.
How many people do I need?
At least three. It works for any group size, and the more names you add the better.
Is it free and private?
Yes — free, no sign-up, and names stay in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
