Pickerino - Giveaway Comment Collector

Collects every comment on an Instagram or YouTube post and streams them into Pickerino to pick a giveaway winner.

Pick a giveaway winner from the comments on an Instagram post or YouTube video. Free with no comment limit, no account to connect, and a result your followers can check for themselves. Open the post, click the icon, hit Collect. Pickerino reads every comment, replies included, and streams them into pickerino.com, where you set the rules and pick. WHAT YOU GET • Free, with no cap on comments. A post with 50 comments or 5,000 costs the same: nothing. • No login, no password, nothing to connect. It reads the post through the Instagram or YouTube tab you already have open. • Works on any post you can view, including personal accounts and posts that aren't yours. • One winner or several, plus alternates from the same shuffle if a winner turns out not to qualify. • The rules other tools charge for: count each tagged friend as an entry, cap entries per person, require a minimum, add bonus entries, leave out the author or anyone else. • Proof to post with the result: a share link, a share card, and a published seed and fingerprint. Anyone can replay the pick at pickerino.com/verify. • A CSV of every comment, if you want one. • Nothing is uploaded. Comments never leave your browser. WHY IT DOESN'T MISS ENTRIES Most pickers leave people out without saying so. Tools built on the official APIs can only read posts you own, need a business or creator account, and can't reach nested replies at all. Tools that need no login are complete only when you pay, and cap the free tier around 100 to 150 comments. Pickerino reads the post the way you do, in your own browser, so it sees every comment you can see. On a tag-a-friend giveaway, the replies are entries too, and that is exactly where most tools stop reading. WHAT IT COLLECTS • Instagram posts and Reels, YouTube videos and Shorts • Full reply threads, not just the handful shown inline. On a tag-a-friend giveaway the replies are the entries. • For each comment: username, user ID, text, timestamp, profile picture, and whether it's a reply PICKING THE WINNER On pickerino.com you choose what counts as an entry (each friend tagged, or each comment), a per-person limit, a minimum to qualify, bonus entries for shares or other platforms, and who can't win. Then pick, add alternates if you need them, copy the share link, or show the share card. Every pick publishes a seed and a fingerprint of the comments, and you can download a record that replays the pick in any browser. Followers, sponsors, or anyone who asks can check it at pickerino.com/verify. BUILT FOR BIG POSTS • Keeps running after you close the Pickerino tab, and reconnects mid-run when you reopen it • Resumes from the last checkpoint if Chrome shuts the extension down • Spaces out requests and backs off on its own if the platform pushes back • Progress shows in three places: the app, the toolbar badge, and a notification when the run ends IT TELLS YOU WHAT IT MISSED Every run ends with a receipt: how many comments came in against the platform's own count, how many were replies, how many unique people, how many requests it took, and how many had to be retried. When the numbers disagree, it says so instead of rounding down. A gap is usually deleted accounts, private or blocked users, or spam-filtered comments, which count toward the post total but can't be read back. PRIVACY Nothing is uploaded. Comments are held in local storage on your machine and sent only to the pickerino.com tab you have open. No analytics, no external servers, no account. HOW TO USE IT 1. Open the post or video in a tab, signed in 2. Click the extension icon; Pickerino opens with the post filled in 3. Hit Collect, then set your rules while it runs If you close the post tab mid-run, collection pauses and says so. Reopen it and resume. A NOTE ON SPEED A large post takes real time. Requests are deliberately spaced so a run reads like a person scrolling rather than a scraper. Anything promising ten thousand comments instantly is either serving a cached copy or not collecting all of them. Not affiliated with Instagram, Meta, YouTube, or Google.
