Add the entries

Free for posts with up to 1,000 replies, no account.

Paste the link of your giveaway post on X and the picker reads the replies to it. Most X giveaways ask people to reply and tag friends: set how many different @names a reply needs and the replies that tag fewer are left out before the draw. A reply that mentions only you doesn't count as tagging a friend.

Every reply that passes the rules has the same chance, and the public result page lists the entries, the seed and every draw made for the post, so a quiet re-draw can't be hidden. Likes and reposts can't be read without the author's login, so a "like and repost to enter" rule has to be checked by hand on the winner before you announce them.

How to use the X (Twitter) Giveaway Picker

  1. Paste the post link

    Use Copy link from the post's share menu, or the address bar. Links from x.com and twitter.com both work; the account has to be public.

  2. Set the rules from your post

    Winners and backups, one entry per account, how many friends a reply must tag, a hashtag or word it must contain, a deadline and accounts to leave out, like your own team.

  3. Draw, check, then announce

    Each winner shows with their @handle, their reply and a link to it. Open their profile to check they follow you or reposted if your rules asked for it, then reply to them or send a DM.

Questions

Can it check that entrants follow me or reposted?

No. X only shows who liked or reposted a post to its author, so no outside tool can read it without your login. Check the winner by hand: open their profile and see if they follow you and reposted, and draw a backup if they don't.

Does tag-a-friend work?

Yes. Set "Must mention friends" to the number your post asks for. The picker counts the different @names in a reply, leaving out the replier's own and yours.

Are my own replies entries?

No. "Leave out the account's own replies" is on by default, and you can list other accounts to leave out.

Are replies to replies entries?

No. Only direct replies to your post are, which is how "reply to enter" giveaways work.

What about posts with more than 1,000 replies?

The free picker stops at 1,000 so a draw never leaves anyone out. Export the replies with replies-to-replies off, then open the export and press "Pick winners from this file": the same rules, every reply.
