Fair draw
Draw tasks – who takes on which task?
Whether it's a shared apartment cleaning plan, a club party, a barbecue evening, a games evening or a project team: someone always has to take on tasks - and that often takes more discussion than necessary.
- Organizer registers: you create an account and set up a new group, for example “summer festival tasks”.
- Enter participants: Enter all the people who should take on a task.
- Create tasks instead of names: instead of classic participant names, you can also work with roles such as “grill master”, “prepare salad”, “music”, or “shopping”.
- Share private links: Wichtlify creates private links for all entries that you send via WhatsApp, email or chat.
- Draw & inform: After the draw, participants can see which task they have been assigned via their link.

Practical Guide
Distribute tasks fairly instead of discussing them
Whether it's a shared apartment cleaning plan, a club party, a barbecue evening, a games evening or a project team: someone always has to take on tasks - and that often takes more discussion than necessary.
With Wichtlify you can draw responsibilities fairly instead of “distributing them by hand”: One person organizes everything, enters the participants and lets the tool do the assignment. Participants do not need their own account, they only receive their private link.
This is how you can draw tasks with Wichtlify
Important: Wichtlify does not have its own task mode. It draws person-to-person; You then assign the specific task to your list.
Wichtlify is built for Secret Santa – but also works as a fair lottery logic for responsibilities.
Typical use cases for task draws
The principle remains the same: the assignment is decided by lottery, and you then document the specific task transparently for everyone.
You can use this text for WhatsApp, email or the club chat:
Advantages if you draw tasks
You can always use Wichtlify when it comes to fair assignments by lottery - even if you then derive tasks or roles from it.
Organizer registers: you create an account and set up a new group, for example “summer festival tasks”.
Practical tips for private groups, teams and community rounds
Enter participants: Enter all the people who should take on a task.
Draw: Wichtlify creates a fair 1:1 allocation within the group.
Example invitation text: draw tasks fairly
👋 Let's draw the tasks fairly this time! So that we don't have a long discussion every time about who will do what, I use the online tool Wichtlify for our [event / shared apartment / team / party]. This is how it works: • I register everyone who takes part. • You will receive a private link. • After the draw you can see what task you have via the link. • You don't need your own account or email registration. If you're there, please let us know 🙂
Which functions make the difference here?
The draw is based on a fair 1:1 logic without self-draws. Stored exclusions are actively taken into account in the calculation.
If participant lists change late, you can update the group in a controlled manner and only then start a new draw.
Wichtlify Pro
If you need more control: Wichtlify Pro
For larger or recurring rounds, Wichtlify Pro expands the standard process to include Smart Draw, emergency assistant, auto-reminder, admin broadcasts as well as insights and event status.
This allows you to reduce manual effort, react more quickly to changes and keep the group stable despite high dynamics.
FAQ
How does Wichtlify prevent self-draws and double-draws?
Start with the final list of participants, set the necessary exclusions and only then carry out the drawing. This ensures that the allocation remains fair and comprehensible.
How do exclusions work for couples or teams?
Exclusions are maintained in the group before the drawing and taken into account in the calculation. This means that conflict constellations are ruled out.
Can I restart the draw after changes?
Yes. If participants or rules change, update the current setup first and then rerun the draw so the result matches the latest group state.
Ready for the next step?
Start directly on your preferred platform and lead the group to the result without any detours.
