It’s almost that time of year! Organizing the office secret santa can be a huge hassle, so Zapier’s come to the rescue with a web app for running secret santa in teams.

The company said it wanted a way for the entire team to be involved in finding someone a gift, which is why the tool was born. To use Conspiracy Santa, you enter the email addresses of your entire team into the tool, which generates email threads for each member of your team’s gift so that no-one is left out.
