Sotto - Anonymous Secret Santa where the host can't peek

byā€¢
Every "anonymous" Secret Santa app lets the organizer peek at assignments. Sotto doesn't. Server-side draws, PIN-gated reveals, sealed envelopes that burn 10 seconds after opening. No accounts. No emails. No tracking. Even we can't see who got whom ā€” the architecture makes it impossible. Free forever. Built for crews who want real anonymity, not promises. Coming next: Secret Cupid, Secret Diwali, Secret Feedback. Sotto is a platform for anonymous group games. The secret stays secret.

Hey Product Hunt šŸ‘‹ I'm Anuj, the maker of Sotto. Quick story: every Secret Santa app I've used (Elfster, MySanta, DrawNames) has the same dirty secret ā€” the organizer can always see who got whom. Their "anonymous" gift exchange isn't actually anonymous. So I built Sotto. The architecture makes peeking impossible: āœ‰ļø Server-side draws (Sattolo's algorithm + crypto.randomInt) šŸ”’ PIN-gated reveals (bcrypt-hashed) šŸ”„ One-time view (the name burns away in 10 seconds) šŸš« No accounts, no emails, no tracking Even I can't see assignments from the database. That's the entire point. What's coming next: ā†’ Secret Cupid (Valentine's) ā†’ Secret Diwali ā†’ Secret Feedback (anonymous team reviews) Sotto is a platform for anonymous group games ā€” Secret Santa is just v1. It's 100% free. No premium tier. No upsell. Would love your honest feedback. Roast it if it deserves it šŸ™
