This calculator is not random. It uses a structured, repeatable formula that combines:
Behind the scenes, each letter of your names is assigned a numeric value. We multiply and weight those values by position, then combine them into a base score. The boldness slider acts as your explicit “risk budget”: low values gently pull the score down, while higher values push it up — but never into dangerous territory.
Relationship and setting are used as safety brakes. A prank on a coworker in an office will be capped and softened, while a prank on a sibling at home can safely lean a bit more chaotic. This means a 75/100 prank at home is designed to feel playful and silly, not cruel or destructive.
Example 1 – Office prank, low boldness: You set boldness to 20, select “coworker” and “office”. The calculator might suggest a simple harmless prank such as changing your own video-call background to something funny or renaming a shared demo folder (not real work) with a silly inside joke. Score: ~22/100.
Example 2 – Sibling at home, medium boldness: You choose “sibling”, boldness 55 and setting “home”. The score might land around 60/100 and propose a prank like temporarily swapping two harmless labels (e.g., “left sock / right sock” boxes) plus a fun reveal video later. It’s silly, visual, and reversible.
Example 3 – Friend online, higher boldness: With “friend”, boldness 80 and “online” selected, you might get a prank idea that uses fake “loading screens”, emoji-only responses for a few minutes, or a playful fake event invite — always followed by a clear, immediate reveal so nobody panics.
The goal: viral-ready, screenshot-worthy ideas that you’d be comfortable showing to your future self, your manager, or your grandma. If a prank would actually harm someone’s feelings, job, reputation or property, it does not belong here, and you should not do it.
It is designed to push you toward gentle, reversible jokes – not cruelty. We avoid suggestions that involve food tampering, physical risk, harassment, bullying, or anything that could cause real-world harm or lasting embarrassment. Still, you are responsible for applying common sense and respecting local rules.
Once we calculate your prank chaos score and context (relationship + setting), we map you into one of several “prank idea families”. Each family contains only light, socially acceptable concepts: visual gags, nicknames, digital surprises, safe misdirection, or quick reveal jokes. We then adapt the language with your names and setting so it feels more personal and shareable.
Yes. Many users take screenshots of their prank score and idea, then recreate a safe version as a reel, TikTok, or story. If you film others, always be respectful: avoid filming children without guardian consent, skip pranks in sensitive locations, and don’t post anything that could harm someone’s reputation.
No. This is a simple browser-based calculator. Your entries stay in your device’s memory, and saved results are stored in localStorage only. There is no login, no tracking of specific prank ideas, and no AI model behind the scenes – just deterministic formulas plus curated prank templates.
Set the boldness slider closer to 0–20, pick “family” or “coworker”, and choose a calm setting. You’ll generally get ultra-soft ideas such as small visual tweaks, harmless name jokes, or quick playful messages that are easy to laugh off and forget.
Yes. Avoid anything that could hurt feelings deeply, damage property, risk physical safety, interfere with work or school, or trick people about serious topics (health, jobs, exams, emergencies, money). When unsure, choose another prank or skip it. Being a kind friend is always more important than being a “legendary prankster”.
