Random Group Generator
Split people into random groups of a specified size.
What is a Random Group Generator and How Does It Work?
A Random Group Generator divides participants into groups based on your preferred group size. Unlike the team generator which focuses on number of teams, this tool lets you specify how many people should be in each group.
How to Use Our Free Random Group Generator Online
Enter names one per line. Set your desired group size. Click 'Generate' to create random groups. The last group may be smaller if participants do not divide evenly.
When You Might Need a Random Group Generator
Use this for workshop breakout sessions, study groups, dinner party seating, or any scenario where group size matters more than the number of groups.
Breakout Groups for Workshops, Conferences, and Study Sessions
Conference facilitators set breakout group sizes based on the activity: pairs for peer review, groups of four for brainstorming, groups of six for case studies. This tool lets you specify the group size directly and automatically creates the right number of groups, handling the remainder gracefully when headcounts do not divide evenly.
