The Common Ninja Bracket Maker is a free, no-code bracket generator for adding interactive tournament brackets to any website. Build the bracket in a visual editor, then paste one line of embed code.

It handles single elimination, double elimination, round robin, group stage, and four-division formats, plus prediction, Pick'em, and voting brackets when you want the audience to take part rather than just watch.

Add participants one at a time or in bulk, seed or randomize the matchups, attach photos and team logos, and let visitors submit scores or vote on matchups. Works on 200+ platforms including Canva, WordPress, Wix, Webflow, and Elementor.

Why add a bracket to your website?

  • Run a tournament people can follow live

    Sports leagues, esports ladders, office competitions, and school tournaments all need the same thing: one page everyone checks for the current standings. Advance winners as rounds finish and every embed updates, so nobody has to hunt for a fresh PDF or a screenshot in a group chat.

  • Let the audience vote or predict

    Switch on votes and predictions and the bracket stops being a scoreboard and becomes the activity itself. Run a Pick'em pool, a fan vote on best album or best mascot, or a community poll shaped as a knockout. Visitors fill in their picks on your page instead of a third-party site.

  • Brackets with photos, logos, and prizes

    Attach an image to every participant so the bracket reads visually rather than as a wall of names. Useful for creator tournaments, product knockouts, mascot votes, and anything where the picture is the point. Add a prizes section so the stakes are visible on the same page.

  • Seasonal bracket challenges

    March Madness, World Cup groups, awards season, and end-of-year fan votes all pull searches for a bracket to fill in. Spin one up in minutes, open a signup page so participants add themselves, and let scores come in from visitors instead of your inbox.

Get started in 3 steps

How it works

  1. Add your participants

    Type in teams or players one at a time, or open the Participants tab and paste a whole list at once. There is no cap on how many participants a bracket can hold. Attach a photo or team logo to any entry, and add group names, dates, or game locations if your tournament needs them.

  2. Pick the format and the extras

    Choose single elimination, double elimination, round robin, group stage, or a four-division layout. Seed the matchups yourself or let the widget randomize them. Then toggle on what you want from the Settings tab: a third-place match, a prizes section, a signup page, score submission, votes and predictions, or the champion view.

  3. Embed one line of code

    Copy the snippet from the Add to Website tab and paste it wherever you want the bracket to appear. Results you update later push through to every embed without touching the code again, so you can advance winners round by round while the tournament runs.

What you get with the Common Ninja Bracket Maker

Every common bracket format

Single elimination, double elimination, round robin, group stage, and four-division layouts, plus prediction, Pick'em, and voting variants. Pick the format when you build and change your mind later without re-entering participants.

Seeding and match randomization

Set the matchups by hand when seeding matters, or let the widget draw them at random for a blind bracket. Ties are broken randomly rather than left unresolved, so a round never stalls waiting on a decision.

Signup pages and score submission

Toggle on a signup page and participants add themselves instead of emailing you. Toggle on score submission and the people playing report their own results. Both are switches in the Settings tab, with no forms to build or wire up.

Export, restyle, and embed anywhere

Save the finished bracket as an image or PDF for a recap post or a printout. Restyle it with built-in skins, layouts, and table types, or drop in custom CSS. One embed snippet works on 200+ platforms with no plugin to install.

Single elimination brackets are a type of tournament format used in competitions where the goal is to determine a single winner. In a single elimination bracket, each participant is paired with another participant in a one-on-one match, and the winner of each match advances to the next round while the loser is eliminated from the competition. This continues until only one participant remains, who is declared the winner of the tournament.


Single elimination brackets are often used in sports tournaments and other competitions where a large number of participants compete against each other. The format is simple and easy to understand and allows for a clear determination of the winner without the need for multiple rounds of matches. However, the format can be considered unfair because a single loss eliminates a participant from the competition, regardless of their overall skill level or performance.


This can result in a situation where the best team or player does not win the tournament, because they may be eliminated in an early round due to an unlucky matchup or a single mistake.

A Round Robin Bracket is a type of tournament format where each team or player plays against every other team or player in the competition. This ensures that each team or player has an equal opportunity to compete and win.


The bracket is typically set up in a circular or circular-like shape, with the teams or players arranged in a way that ensures each team or player plays against every other team or player. The team or player with the most wins determines the winner of the tournament.

A double-elimination bracket is a type of tournament format where a team or player is not eliminated from the competition after losing their first game. Instead, they are moved to a separate bracket where they have another chance to compete and win. The winner of the main bracket and the elimination bracket compete against each other in the final game to determine the tournament's overall winner. This format allows for more competitive play and ensures that all teams or players have a fair chance at winning the tournament.

March Madness is the popular nickname for the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament, which is held every year in the United States. The tournament features 68 college basketball teams from across the country, who compete in a single-elimination tournament to determine the national champion. The tournament is known for its unique bracket format, where teams are seeded based on their regular season performance and then matched up in a bracket for the tournament. The tournament is a popular event for fans and bettors, who often fill out their own bracket predictions in hopes of correctly predicting the outcome of each match.

A four division bracket is a type of tournament format where the competition is divided into four separate divisions or groups. Each division contains a certain number of teams or players competing against each other within their own division. The winners of each division then face off in a final round to determine the tournament's overall winner. This format allows for a larger number of teams or players to compete in the tournament, and ensures a fair and balanced competition by dividing the teams or players into separate divisions.

A prediction bracket is a type of bracket used for predicting the outcome of a tournament or competition. This can be done by a single person or a group of people, and is often used for betting or as a fun activity among friends or colleagues. In a prediction bracket, the person or group fills out the bracket by predicting the winners of each match in the tournament. The person or group with the most accurate predictions is typically declared the winner. Prediction brackets are commonly used for sports tournaments, such as the NCAA March Madness basketball tournament, but can also be used for other types of competitions, such as reality TV shows or political elections.

Pick'em brackets are a type of prediction bracket where the person or group filling out the bracket must choose the winners of each match in the tournament. This is different from a traditional bracket, where the tournament organizers determine the winners. In a pick'em bracket, the person or group must use their knowledge and expertise to make educated guesses about which teams or players will win each match. The person or group with the most accurate predictions is typically declared the winner. Pick'em brackets are often used for sports tournaments, but can also be used for other types of competitions, such as reality TV shows or political elections.


A voting bracket is a type of bracket used to conduct a vote or poll among a group of people. In a voting bracket, the options or candidates being voted on are arranged in a bracket format, with each option or candidate facing off against another in a series of match-ups. The people participating in the vote then cast their ballots by selecting the option or candidate they prefer in each match-up. The option or candidate with the most votes in each match-up advances to the next round, until a winner is determined. Voting brackets can be used for a variety of purposes, such as choosing a favorite food, determining the best movie in a series, or selecting the most popular candidate in an election.

A Group Stage bracket is a type of tournament format where the teams or players are divided into groups or pools based on their performance or ranking. Each group or pool contains a certain number of teams or players, who compete against each other within their own group. The winners of each group or pool then advance to the next round of the tournament, where they face off against the winners of the other groups or pools. This format allows for a larger number of teams or players to compete in the tournament and ensures a fair and balanced competition by dividing the teams or players into separate groups. Group Stage brackets are commonly used in sports tournaments, such as soccer or basketball, but can also be used for other types of competitions.
