Private processing and offline access
This tool does not submit your input to a conversion server. Processing takes place inside the browser using local JavaScript and standard Web APIs. After the PWA has been installed or cached, the page and its core features remain available without an internet connection. Closing or clearing the page removes unsaved input; the tool does not create an account or cloud history.
Tips for accurate results
- This is not a publicly auditable lottery system.
- Remove duplicates only when repeated entries should not add weight.
- Keep sensitive lists local and clear them after use.
