# TikTok Comment Picker

https://aicommentexporter.com/tiktok-comment-picker/

Pick random giveaway winners from a TikTok video's comments, with tag-a-friend rules and backup winners. Free for videos with up to 1,000 comments, no account.

Paste the link of your TikTok giveaway video (the short one from the share button works too) and the picker reads every top-level comment on it. Most TikTok giveaways ask people to tag friends: set how many different @names an entry needs, and comments that tag fewer are left out before the draw.

Each draw can get a public result page with every entry, your rules, the winners and a check anyone can run, so when someone asks if it was rigged you send a link instead of a screen recording. Videos with more than 1,000 comments still get a fair draw: export the comments with replies off, then pick from the file with the same rules.

1. **Paste the video link**: Copy the link from TikTok's share button or your browser and press Load comments. Top-level comments are entries; replies aren't.
2. **Use the rules you announced**: Winners and backups, one entry per person, how many friends an entry must tag, a word it must contain, a deadline and names to leave out.
3. **Draw and tell the winner**: Each winner shows with their @name and comment. Reply to their comment or message them from your account, and keep the backup ready in case they don't answer.

## Running a fair TikTok giveaway

- Put the rules in the caption or a pinned comment: the prize, the deadline with a time zone, what counts as an entry (a comment, tagged friends, a follow), who can enter and how you'll contact the winner.
- Keep entry free. Asking people to pay or buy something to enter can turn a giveaway into a lottery in many countries.
- Say in the rules that TikTok doesn't sponsor or run the giveaway, and check the rules for promotions where you and your entrants live.
- Record your screen while you load the comments and draw, then post it: the page shows how many comments were read, the rules and the time of the draw.
- Fake accounts copy creators after big giveaways. Tell entrants you'll only contact winners from your own account and will never ask them to pay.

**Does tag-a-friend work?** Yes. Set "Must mention friends" to the number you asked for. The picker counts the different @names in a comment, leaving out the commenter's own, so tagging the same friend twice counts once.

**Can I use a link from the TikTok app?** Yes. Links from the share button (vm.tiktok.com/…) and full links from a browser both work, for videos and photo posts.

**Are my own comments entries?** No. "Leave out the creator's own comments" is on by default, and you can list other names to leave out, such as a co-host.

**Can I draw from a LIVE?** No. LIVE chat isn't kept as comments, so there's nothing to read afterwards.

**What about videos with more than 1,000 comments?** The free picker stops at 1,000 so a draw never leaves anyone out. Export the comments without replies, then open the export and press "Pick winners from this file": the same rules, every comment.
