A Fisher–Yates shuffle with the browser’s cryptographic generator and an even spread.

Frequently asked questions

How do I split people into teams?

Enter the names — one per line — choose whether to set a number of teams or a number of people per team, and press "Generate teams". The names are shuffled randomly and distributed across the teams.

Is the split random?

Yes. The list is shuffled with a Fisher–Yates shuffle powered by crypto.getRandomValues plus rejection sampling — no bias, every person has an equal chance of landing in any team.

What is the difference between "Number of teams" and "People per team"?

With "Number of teams" you set how many teams you want and people are spread as evenly as possible across them (sizes differ by at most one). With "People per team" you set a size and as many teams are made as needed — the last one may be smaller.

Are the teams balanced?

In "Number of teams" mode — yes: we distribute round-robin so team sizes differ by at most one person. In "People per team" mode every team is exactly the size you set, except possibly the last one.

What is it used for?

Splitting teams for sports and games, project groups in class or the office, assigning tasks, forming pairs, and anywhere you need an impartial way to divide people into groups.

Are the names uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser via JavaScript — your list of names never leaves your device and nothing is stored.
