Try the free comment picker →What Comment Picker does
Comment Picker (commentpicker.com) runs a large set of free giveaway tools for Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, X, Threads, Bluesky and Reddit, plus random name pickers and wheels.
Its Instagram picker uses Meta's official API, so you log in with Instagram or Facebook, and it only works with Instagram business or creator accounts, not personal ones. The free version reads up to 100 comments from one post and picks one winner. Premium, at $9.99 a month, removes the comment limit, picks up to 10 winners, adds mention and text filters and removes the ads.
Where Brika fits better
No Instagram login
Brika reads the public comments from the post link. You never connect your Instagram account or grant permissions, and it works for personal accounts too, as long as the post is public.
1,000 comments free instead of 100
Comment Picker's free version stops at 100 comments. Brika's free plan reads posts with up to 1,000.
Rules and several winners for free
Hashtag and tag-a-friend rules, excluded accounts and up to 10 winners are all on Brika's free plan. On Comment Picker they need Premium.

Questions
Is Brika's comment picker free?
Yes. A free Brika account gets 1 draw a week on public Instagram or TikTok posts with up to 1,000 comments. Paid plans start at $9 a month for 3 draws a week on posts up to 9,000 comments.
Do I need to log in with Instagram?
No. Paste the link to a public Instagram post or Reel, or a TikTok video. Brika reads the public comments and never asks for your Instagram password or any account permissions.
Why doesn't Brika need my Instagram login?
Brika reads the comments anyone can see on a public post, so it doesn't need access to your account. Tools that use Meta's official API, like Comment Picker, need you to log in and only work with business or creator accounts.
How does Brika pick the winner?
On the server, with a cryptographically secure random number generator. Comments that break your rules (a missing hashtag, too few tagged friends, an excluded account) are removed first, each account counts once, and every remaining entry has the same chance.
