The generator

Build your draft order

Give everyone the same number of picks and you get a snake draft, generated in your browser. Give them different numbers and the algorithm spreads each person's turns evenly across the whole draft instead.

Same picks each → that many rounds.

Uneven shares

When people don't all get the same number of picks.

Season-ticket partners where one takes 25 games and another takes 5. Co-owners splitting weeks at a cabin. A sales team dividing leads by seniority. Equal rounds aren't fair when the shares aren't equal — so give people different pick counts above and the generator shapes the order to each person's share, spreading everyone's turns evenly across the whole draft.

Draft order questions

Yes — no account, no email, and no limit on snake or repeating orders. Those are generated in your browser, so the names you type never leave your device.
In a snake draft the order reverses every round — whoever picks last in round one picks first in round two (1,2,3 then 3,2,1). It evens out the advantage of an early first pick. A repeating draft replays the same order every round instead (1,2,3 then 1,2,3).
Rounds come from the picks, so you do not set them separately. Give everyone 10 picks and you get 10 rounds. Use Set all to to give everyone the same number at once.
Yes — just give them different pick counts. Instead of forcing everyone into equal rounds, the generator spreads each person's turns evenly across the whole draft, so someone with 25 picks and someone with 5 are both treated fairly. That is the draft order algorithm, built for things like season tickets.
Snake and repeating orders shuffle with your browser's built-in cryptographic randomness, and you can re-roll as often as you like. If you need an order your group can trust — one nobody quietly re-rolled until they liked it — OnlineDraft can generate it on the server, record the attempt, and email the result to every participant.
Copy it to your clipboard from the button above the result. To keep it, invite people to it, and track picks against it, create a free group — the order becomes a live draft board everyone can watch.

Turn that order into a real draft.

Create a group for free, invite everyone, and run the draft on a live board. Drafts of 15 items or fewer are always free.
