When running a comment-to-win competition on YouTube, it’s essential to have a reliable, user-friendly comment picker to draw the winner.

Below, we've listed our favourite comment picker tools tailored specifically for YouTube.

Using an automated tool is crucial to show your contestants that the competition is fair and unbiased.

If you pick the winner manually, you won’t be able to prove that the selection wasn’t influenced or random, which could make your competition look untrustworthy.
