Build Better Groups.
Or the Best Ones.
Balanced Allocate helps you distribute, select, and optimise people or resources into groups — fairly, efficiently, and within real-world constraints.
From classrooms and sports teams to staff rosters and scholarship selection, define your rules and let the optimiser do the heavy lifting.
Built for Real Constraints
Balanced Allocate supports the types of rules that make manual allocation difficult.
- Group size limits (minimum and maximum capacity)
- Budget caps and numeric totals
- Percentage quotas
- Hard pins and exclusions
- Keep-together and keep-apart rules
- Preference weighting and suitability scoring
- Elite group selection using maximize mode
- Risk or cost control using minimize mode
All constraints are evaluated simultaneously. If rules conflict, you’ll know before running the solver.
Where It Delivers the Most Value
Balanced Allocate is used across professional, community and operational settings — wherever structured decisions need to respect real-world constraints.
