The Solver

Your board, exactly as you played it

Click a row, type your guess, then tap each tile to cycle grey → yellow → green. Results update live. Duplicates are counted exactly — a letter guessed twice with only one tile coloured means the answer holds exactly one of it.

Most likely answer

—

Play a guess on the board and this names the single most probable answer left.

Best information guess

—

When answers share letters (the classic –ATCH trap), this guess tests the most undecided letters at once instead of wasting a turn.

Highlighted words are the most likely answers; the rest are valid guesses that also fit. Every word shown carries its Scrabble score next to it — tap any word for its letter-by-letter breakdown.

Pattern Searches

5 letter word finder — pattern searches explained

Most people do not search for “a word” — they search for a pattern: five letters with a few positions known and a few letters ruled out. This 5 letter word finder turns the pattern you already have into that search. Green tiles fix a letter in its position, yellow tiles mean “this letter is in the word, but not here”, and grey tiles cap how many of a letter the word can hold. Set the pattern on the board above and the list updates as you tap.

S _ A _ E — starts with S, A in position 3: green S and A, then read the list. Fits include SHAPE, SHARE, SNAKE and SPACE.
_ _ A _ _ with R yellow — the word contains A in the middle and an R somewhere else: CRANE-style patterns narrow fastest.
_ _ _ E R — ends in ER: fix E and R green in positions 4 and 5 and let the finder rank what is left.
No E, no A — two grey vowels in one guess is still a pattern: the finder only keeps words built from the remaining vowels.

Tip: a pattern search is only as honest as its duplicate letters. If your guess used a letter twice and only one tile coloured, the answer holds exactly one of it — the solver counts that for you, so the pattern never lies.

Guide

Best starting words — and the second word that matters more

The best starting words cover the most common letters in their most common positions, so the first colours teach you as much as possible:

  • SLATE, CRANE, TRACE — balanced openers: three common consonants plus A and E in high-frequency spots.
  • AUDIO, ADIEU — vowel sweeps. Weaker on consonants, but they settle four vowels in one guess.
  • RAISE, SOARE — vowel-heavy with S and R, the two hardest-working consonants.
  • Your second word should test five fresh letters whenever the first guess comes back mostly grey — that is how a bad opener still becomes a 3- or 4-guess solve.
  • In Quordle, plan the pair in advance: AUDIO followed by CREST tests ten different letters across all four boards in two guesses.

Spoiler-free hints — take only the help you want

A hint should rescue a streak, not finish the game for you. The hint modes above are built as a ladder, so you choose how much is revealed:

  • Count only — how many words still fit. No letters, no words: just “is this board nearly solved?”
  • First letter — one letter of the most likely answer. Often enough to unlock the word you were circling.
  • Best guess only — one strong next guess, not the answer list. You still play the solve yourself.
  • Full list — every word that fits, for when the streak matters more than the purity.

Wordle Find never publishes today’s official answer and keeps no daily answer archive — every hint is worked out live from your own board, and only from your board.

Worked Example

Wordle solver in action — a board solved in three guesses

Here is exactly what this wordle solver does with a real board pattern. You open with SLATE and get A green in position 3 and T yellow. One guess has fixed the middle letter and proved a T is hiding elsewhere, so the solver keeps only words shaped _ _ A _ _ that contain a T away from position 5 — words like CHANT fall out because they hold no T, and PLAZA-style doubles are checked letter by letter.

The most likely answer and the best information guess now split: the information guess spends a turn testing fresh consonants — a sweep like CRAMP tests C, R, M and P around the known A in a single play — while the likely-answer card names the single word the pattern points to hardest. Two more coloured rows and the list usually collapses to one word — that collapse, not a published answer, is the solve.

Try it above: load the example board, tap the colours, and watch the count fall. The same pattern logic powers the pattern searches — green fixes a position, yellow moves a letter, grey caps its count.
