Gender reveals and birth announcements

Share your baby news with Lottie: a keep-it-secret gender reveal, or a birth announcement video with the baby's name.

Pick your event

Two baby videos on one page. Pick one to see what you fill in.

Gender reveal video

One suspenseful reveal video for everyone. A friend or your doctor enters the result through a one-time link, so you find out with everyone else.

What you fill in

Lottie puts these into the scene. Names are added in code, never redrawn.

  • Who enters the result
  • Reveal time
  • Optional baby name

Ordering opens soon

One price per video, shown before you pay. Watermarked proof first.

We'll only use your email to tell you when this is ready. Nothing else.

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Draws are free for any size group, with keep-apart rules, email invites, share links and printables. No ads, and we never sell your list.

How do people get their match?
  • FREELottie emails each person their own match, or you share a private link per person (copy it, or send it by group text or WhatsApp), or show the draw on one screen.
  • PREMIUMA scheduled reveal: everyone's match unlocks at the same moment you choose.
  • Coming soonLottie can text each person their own match, after they reply YES to opt in. You choose when the texts go out: as soon as the draw is done, at a date and time you schedule, or all at once at the reveal.
  • Coming soonCast the reveal to your TV (AirPlay or Chromecast) so the whole room watches.
Can we show the reveal on a TV?

Coming soon: cast the reveal to your TV (AirPlay or Chromecast) so the whole room watches. Today you can already show the draw on one screen or mirror your phone.

Do you need full names?

No. First names are enough. Add a last name or initial when your event needs it, like a big group or two people with the same first name. If a full name won't fit a scene, Lottie uses the first name and initial, or the builder greys that scene out for full names. When the reveal goes to the whole group, we ask for each person's email.

Two people have the same name. What do I do?

Add a last name or initial to each of them, like Sam R. and Sam T. Lottie checks every list for repeated names as you type, so nobody is confused about who is who.

What does a Premium Event add?

Reminders, a scheduled reveal, no repeats from past draws, any season, Surprise me too, a live draw, the scene builder and anonymous messages, plus premium themed scene reveals for everyone in the event (not the Lottie reveal), with no monthly reveal limit. Reveal videos are a separate order. Wishlists are free for everyone. A Premium Event is $5.99 for one event and one group, good for a year. It is free when you order a reveal video for that event.

What's a reveal video?

Each match gets its own cozy animated scene with the name in it, for TV and phone. $6.99 + $1 per person, Premium Event included.

Will any scenes repeat?

Only if your group is bigger than that season's scene library. Then some scenes repeat, but each video still has its own names. Lottie spreads repeats evenly: no scene is used twice until every scene has been used once, and nobody gets the same scene as the person they drew. New scenes are added all the time.

When does the video arrive?

Personalized videos are coming soon. Once ordering opens, it arrives when you choose. On the order, choose β€œAs soon as it's ready” (usually about 15 minutes, always within 24 hours) or a date and time up to your event date. We make it right away, check it, and send it at that time. We email a private watch link when both versions are ready, and the link is on your order page too.
