Introducing TrueSpin: wheel draws anyone can verify

By the NameWheel team · 4 minute read

Every giveaway host knows the comment. You run the draw, you announce the winner, and within minutes somebody writes it: rigged. It does not matter that you did everything honestly. A screen recording proves nothing, because everyone knows a host can spin until a friend wins and post the best take, or swap a name in any video editor in five minutes.

Today we are shipping our answer. TrueSpin certified spins make NameWheel the first wheel spinner whose draws can be independently verified by anyone, without trusting the host and without trusting us.

Also on YouTube.

How it works, in one minute

Before the wheel moves, our server seals a secret seed and publishes its fingerprint. Your browser adds randomness of its own. The winner is computed from both together, which means neither you nor we can steer the result, and the sealed fingerprint proves the randomness was never swapped after the fact.

The spin itself is recorded as a produced clip with live sound, your title, the winner card, and a proof link burned into every single frame. When the wheel stops, the whole thing is published to a permanent proof page like the one behind the video above: namewheel.org/v/NT49TV59.

The video is not the proof. The video points at the proof, and the proof can be re-run by anyone, in their own browser, forever.

Open any proof page and press the green button. Your browser, not our word, recomputes the sealed commitment, re-derives the winner from the revealed seed, and hashes the hosted video byte for byte against the recorded fingerprint. Three green ticks and the argument is over. The page also shows how many certified draws the host ran that day, so quietly re-spinning until the right name comes up is visible too. Records are permanent: neither the host nor NameWheel can edit or delete one.

What it costs

Running certified draws and publishing proof pages is free for every account, and verification is never paywalled for anyone. Your first hosted video is free and closes on a short NameWheel outro card. After that, PRO includes unlimited clean videos from $4.08 a month, or $99 once for the lifetime Founder licence.

Where this came from

NameWheel already lets anyone stress test its randomness in the Fairness Lab, up to fifty thousand draws at a time, live. TrueSpin extends that same obsession from the generator to each individual draw. Fairness you can check has been our whole position from the start; now it fits in a link you can pin under a winner announcement.

Run your first one now. It takes a minute, it is free, and your next winner announcement will defend itself.
