Instagram comment picker
Pick a random winner from the comments on an Instagram post or Reel. Filter by hashtag, tags and duplicates. Free, no login, no app to install.
How it works

- 2Set your giveaway rules: one entry per person, a required hashtag or word, a minimum number of tagged friends.
- 3Draw one or more winners at random, and export the full entry list if you need a record.
What people use it for
- Run an Instagram giveaway without paying for a picker app.
- Check that every winner followed the rules before you announce them.
- Keep a CSV of entries as a record of the draw.

The same result, from the API, for as many posts as you need. It returns a unified Comment, the same shape on every platform.

Does it work with Reels and carousel posts?
Yes. Paste any public post link: instagram.com/p/…, /reel/… or /tv/…. Private accounts are not supported.
Is the draw random and fair?
Yes. Winners are drawn in your browser with the Web Crypto random number generator, using an unbiased method, from the entries that pass your rules. Every eligible entry has the same chance.
How many comments does it read?
A free lookup reads the first few pages of comments, which covers most giveaways. If a post has more, the tool says so; the crawlfeed API pages through every comment.
Can I prove the result to my followers?
Record your screen while you load the comments and draw, and post the clip with the winner announcement. Each winner links to their comment so anyone can check it.
Is it really free?
Yes. You can run a few lookups a day without an account. For more, or to automate it, create a free account: it comes with 100 API credits.
Do I need to log in or connect my account?
No. The tool reads public data only and never asks for a password or account access.
