About the Wordle Maker

The Wordle Maker turns your color clues into a shortlist of possible answers. Instead of mentally juggling green, yellow, and gray tiles, let this tool do the heavy lifting so you can focus on building a winning guess strategy. It works for standard 5-letter Wordle and extended variants from 4 to 9 letters, and it handles seven languages natively.

Crack puzzles across word lengths and languages: Switch between 4-9 letter puzzles with a single tap. The interface reshapes itself, loads the right dictionary, and resets your clue state so every puzzle gets a clean start.

How to Use This Tool

  1. Pick your word length — Tap a number tab (4 through 9). The default is 5 for standard Wordle.
  2. Choose Quick Mode or Grid Mode — Quick Mode is best for entering clues you already have. Grid Mode lets you replay each guess visually, one row at a time.
  3. Enter your clues — In Quick Mode: fill green positions, type yellow letters, and type gray letters. In Grid Mode: type a word, click tiles to set colors, then submit the turn.
  4. Read the results — Words are ranked by letter frequency. The candidates with the highest diversity of common letters appear first, giving you the best chance of eliminating more letters on your next guess.
  5. Tap any word to see crossword clues and definitions (available for 5-letter English words).

Tips for Cracking Puzzles Faster

  • Prioritize vowel coverage: A strong opening guess tests at least two different vowels. Words like ADIEU or AUDIO check four vowels in one shot, immediately revealing which vowels are in play.
  • Exploit letter frequency: The letters E, A, R, S, T, and O cover roughly 45% of all letter slots in English 5-letter words. Guesses built from these letters provide maximum information per turn.
  • Eliminate, then confirm: Use your first two guesses to test 10 different letters. Resist the urge to reuse a confirmed letter early — elimination narrows the field faster than partial confirmation.
  • Watch for positional patterns: Certain letter-position combinations are far more common than others. S rarely appears in position 3 but frequently starts a word. Use positional awareness to break ties between candidates.
  • Do not ignore double letters: Roughly one in five Wordle answers contains a repeated letter. If your filtered list is short and nothing fits, consider that a letter may appear twice.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the color-coded filtering actually work?

Green letters are locked into their exact position — the word must have that letter at that spot. Yellow letters must appear in the word but are excluded from the position where you tried them (position-negation). Gray letters are removed from all positions unless they also appear as green or yellow elsewhere. This three-layer filter runs against the full dictionary to produce a ranked list of remaining candidates.

What is the difference between Quick Mode and Grid Mode?

Quick Mode is a streamlined three-field form: type known positions, yellow letters, and gray letters, then hit "Make Words" for instant results. Grid Mode mimics the real Wordle board. You type a full word into a row of tiles, click each tile to set green, yellow, or gray, and submit turn by turn. Grid Mode automatically carries green letters forward and tracks yellow position-negation across all submitted rows.

Does this work for 6, 7, 8, or 9 letter Wordle variants?

Yes. Tap the length tab to switch between 4 and 9 letters. For 5-letter English, the tool uses the official 12,540-word Wordle guess list stored locally for instant filtering. For other lengths and languages, word lists are fetched from an API backed by comprehensive dictionaries and cached in your browser so subsequent searches are fast.

Which opening guess eliminates the most letters?

The most effective opening words test five unique, high-frequency letters. For English, CRANE, SLATE, and TRACE are strong choices because they combine common consonants (R, S, T, N) with common vowels (A, E). Following your opener with a word that tests entirely different letters (like DOUGH after CRANE) maximizes information gain across your first two turns.
