Team generator FAQ.

Is it free to use?

Yes, all of it, with nothing held back for a paid plan.

Do I need to sign up?

No. Open the page and make teams; we collect no personal information.

How many times can I generate teams?

As many as you like. Press Generate Teams again for a new draw.

How does team balancing work?

Give each name a skill level from 1 to 5, like Sarah|4, and turn on balancing. The generator spreads people so each team has a similar average skill.

Can I have several team leaders?

Yes. Put * before each leader's name, like *John. Leaders go to different teams whenever there are enough teams.

What is the difference between "Number of Teams" and "Members per Team"?

Number of Teams sets how many teams you get. Members per Team sets the size of each team, and the generator makes as many teams as the list needs.

Can I save or share the teams?

Yes: copy them, download them as a TXT or CSV file, or print them.

What is the most names I can enter?

There is no fixed limit. It works best with fewer than 100 names at a time.

Can I name the teams?

Yes. Type the names separated by commas, like Red Team, Blue Team, Green Team, one for each team.
