Randomify Tool
Team / Group Generator
Perfect for classrooms, meetups, and hackathons—shuffle people into fair teams in a click.
How to Use the Team / Group Generator
- 1Enter your roster in the text area — one name per line or comma-separated.
- 2Choose a distribution mode: "Number of teams" (you set how many groups) or "People per team" (you set the group size).
- 3Select a team-name theme: Numbers, Greek, Colours, or Animals.
- 4Toggle Captain mode if you want the first member of each team marked as captain.
- 5Click Generate. Teams appear as colour-coded cards with member lists, counts, and optional captain badges.
- 6Copy the results or download a CSV file to share with your group.
When to Use the Team / Group Generator
A teacher splitting 30 students into 6 groups for a science project enters the class roster, selects "5 teams," picks the Greek naming theme, and projects the result. Each team — Alpha through Epsilon — has its own colour card and six members.
A workshop facilitator creates breakout groups of 4 people each. "People per team" mode handles the maths automatically, even when the total doesn't divide evenly — remainder members are spread across the first groups.
A sports coach randomises pickup teams for practice scrimmages, enables Captain mode so each team knows who leads the coin toss, and regenerates until the teams feel balanced enough to start.
A hackathon organiser exports the generated teams as a CSV, uploads it to a shared Google Sheet, and links it in the event Slack channel so everyone can find their team before the event starts.
Team / Group Generator vs. List & Name Picker
The Team Generator distributes an entire roster into multiple groups simultaneously — with named teams, colour cards, captain badges, and CSV export. The List Picker selects individual winners or shuffles a list into a single order. Use the Team Generator when you need to form balanced groups; use the List Picker when you need to draw winners or create a ranked sequence. Try the List & Name Picker →
Drop in a roster (one person per line or comma), pick whether you want a fixed number of teams or a preferred team size, and Randomify distributes names evenly with a Fisher–Yates shuffle. It’s an effortless way to build breakout rooms, hackathon squads, or recess matchups without debates about fairness. Because everything runs locally, you can safely paste class lists or event RSVPs without exposing them online.
The output cards feature bold team labels and clean chips for each member, making them easy to project or share in chat. Copy the results, reroll for new groupings, or use the wheel to decide which team presents first. Balanced teams are now a one-click affair.
