Social comment & like winner pickers
The easiest way to randomly pick comments and likes as winners from Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. Picking winners is as simple as selecting your content, choosing likes or comments, and pressing Pick a winner.
Pick a winner in three steps
No spreadsheets, no random-number generators, no sketchy third-party tools.
Connect your post
Pick a Facebook post, an Instagram post, or a YouTube video and Woobox pulls the comments and reactions automatically.
Filter the eligible entries
Pick from likes, comments, or both. Filter by tagged friends, hashtags, or one-comment-per-user. Unpick anyone who does not meet your rules.
Pick a random winner
One click draws the winner. Pick again to draw a backup. Export the full eligible list to CSV.

Questions about the social winner picker
How do I randomly pick a winner from a social media post?
Sign in to Woobox, connect the social platform you posted on, and pick the post. Woobox pulls every comment and like from that post automatically. Choose to draw from comments, likes, or both, set your eligibility filters, and click Pick a winner. The selection is fully random and a record of the draw is saved in your dashboard.
Is the comment & like winner picker free?
Yes. The Woobox social winner picker is available on the free plan — pick winners from Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube without a credit card. Paid plans add advanced eligibility filters, multi-post pulling, and bulk CSV exports.
Can I pick multiple winners at once?
Yes. Set the number of winners and Woobox draws all of them in a single click. You can also unpick anyone who does not meet your rules and pick a backup with another click.
Can I filter by tagged friends or hashtags?
Yes. Require commenters to tag a friend, include a specific hashtag, or both. Comments without the required tag or hashtag are excluded from the draw automatically.
Can I pull comments from multiple posts at once?
Yes. Combine comments from multiple Facebook page posts or Instagram posts into a single eligible pool, deduplicated by user. Useful for week-long giveaways or multi-post campaigns.
Can I export the full list of comments or likes?
Yes. Export every comment, every like, and every reaction as a CSV — usernames, comment text, timestamps, and reactions. Use it for record-keeping, eligibility checks, or building a list of fans you can re-engage later.
Will the winner know they won automatically?
Woobox shows the winner in your dashboard with their username and a direct link to their comment. You can announce the winner publicly, DM them through the platform, or use Woobox's Prize Claim flow to collect their fulfillment info via a hosted form.
How do I make sure my giveaway is fair?
Every draw is logged with a timestamp and the eligible-entry count. Your audience can verify the draw was random and that all eligible entries were included. For high-value prizes, our Sweepstakes platform adds official rules, age gates, and audit-grade winner selection.
Does this work on mobile?
Yes. The Woobox dashboard is fully responsive — pull comments, run filters, and pick winners from your phone. Perfect for picking winners live during a stream, event, or meeting.
What's the difference between this and a long-form giveaway?
The winner picker draws from existing social comments and likes — fast, lightweight, no landing page. A long-form giveaway or sweepstakes campaign uses a hosted Woobox landing page, an entry form, and bonus entries for follows, shares, and referrals — better when you want to capture leads or build an email list.
Do you store user data?
Comment and reaction data is stored only as long as your campaign is active and only used to power your draw. We comply with the platforms' data-handling rules and the GDPR. See our privacy policy for full details.
