What the tools do
- Unscramble
-
Enter a set of letters and instantly see every valid word that can be formed from
them. Results are ranked by Scrabble tile value so you can spot the highest-scoring
play at a glance. Useful for Scrabble, Words With Friends, and the NYT Spelling Bee.
- Wordle Solver
-
Enter the green, yellow, and grey feedback from your current Wordle attempt and the
solver narrows the dictionary down to words that match all your constraints. Works
for the standard 5-letter Wordle as well as variants with word lengths from 4 to 8.
- Pattern / Crossword
-
Type a word pattern using
* for each unknown letter (for example,
c*os*w*rd) and see every dictionary word that fits. Ideal for crossword
puzzles where you already know some letters and their positions.
- Anagram Solver
-
A dedicated anagram finder with full Scrabble scoring. Enter any combination of
letters and receive a complete list of valid words sorted by score, grouped by
word length.
