About Us
Hi, I'm Dev Walia.
Senior Software Engineer & EdTech Advocate
Welcome to RandomNamePicker.org. Over the past 10 years, my career has been dedicated to building high-availability web applications and exploring the intricate world of cryptographic randomization tools.
Throughout my journey in Educational Technology, I noticed a frustrating trend. The digital tools relied upon by teachers, managers, and marketers were either cluttered with intrusive advertisements, entirely lacking in accessibility (WCAG) compliance, or operating on highly questionable, easily manipulated algorithms.
I believed the internet deserved better. That is why I built this platform.
Our Core Mission
The primary purpose of RandomNamePicker.org is to provide a 100% accessible, mathematically sound, and provably fair utility for making random selections. This isn't just a gimmick—it's a precision-engineered tool designed to remove human bias from decision-making entirely.
We are proudly committed to:
- Uncompromising Fairness: Using advanced PRNG (Pseudo-Random Number Generator) cryptographic hashing, ensuring every single spin can be verified for absolute zero-bias.
- Privacy by Design: Acting strictly as a client-side utility. No user names, class rosters, or raffle entries are ever stored on our servers. Your data stays in your browser's local storage.
- Universal Accessibility: Maintaining strict WCAG 2.1 AA compliance so visually impaired users and those requiring keyboard navigation can utilize the tool effortlessly.
Whether you are drawing the winning ticket for a social media giveaway, randomly grouping students for a science project, or simply deciding what to eat for lunch, you have my personal guarantee that this platform will deliver a fair, transparent result every time.
Thank you for trusting our algorithm,
Dev Walia
