How to use the word tools

Anagram Solver

Type your letters into the box and press Solve. Results are grouped by word length, longest first — perfect when you need the highest-scoring Scrabble play. Add up to three ? characters for blank tiles. An anagram is simply a word formed by rearranging the letters of another.

Crossword Pattern Solver

Enter your crossword pattern with a dot for every missing letter, e.g. h.r...i.m. The solver instantly lists every dictionary word that fits. This is the fastest way to crack clues where you only know a few crossing letters.

Word Finder

Built for daily word games like Wordle and our own Crosswordle guide readers love. Pick the word length, fill in your green letters, list yellow letters that must appear, and grey letters to exclude.

Thesaurus

Type any word to see its synonyms — handy when a crossword definition just won’t click, like the tricky clues in our crossword clue guides. You can also tap any result word in the other tools to jump straight to its synonyms.

Frequently asked questions

Are these word tools really free?

Yes. All four tools — the anagram solver, crossword pattern solver, word finder and thesaurus — are completely free to use, with no sign-up and no download required. Everything runs in your browser.

What is an anagram solver?

An anagram solver takes a set of letters and finds every valid word you can make from them. For example, entering “listen” finds “silent”, “enlist”, “inlets” and “tinsel”. Ours also supports ? as a blank tile, just like Scrabble.

How does the crossword pattern solver work?

Type the letters you know and use a dot (.) for each unknown letter — for example, c.t finds cat, cot and cut. It searches a dictionary of over 300,000 English words, including common UK spellings.

Can I use the word finder for Wordle?

Yes. Set the word length, enter your green letters as known positions (dots for unknown), add yellow letters under “must contain” and grey letters under “must avoid”. It narrows the 300,000-word dictionary to your possible answers.

Do I need to download an app or create an account?

No. The tools run entirely in your web browser on any phone, tablet or computer. Nothing is uploaded anywhere — your letters never leave your device.

Where does the word list come from?

The solver searches more than 300,000 English words, and the thesaurus covers 24,000+ headwords with curated synonyms. Both UK and US spellings are included, so “colour” and “color” both work.
