What this tool does
The Anagram Solver takes a jumble of letters and finds the real words hiding inside them. It works in two ways:
- Exact anagrams — words that use all of your letters exactly once.
listen→silent,enlist,tinsel. - Sub-words — every word you can spell from a subset of your letters, filtered by a minimum length. Perfect for Scrabble and Words With Friends.
Results are grouped by length with the longest words first, so the highest-scoring plays are right at the top.
How it works under the hood
Anagram matching doesn’t try every permutation — that would be far too slow. Instead it compares letter counts. For exact anagrams it sorts the letters of each candidate into a signature and matches signatures; for sub-words it checks that every letter a candidate needs is available in your pool. This is fast enough to scan the whole dictionary on every keystroke.
What it does NOT do
- It is not an exhaustive Scrabble dictionary. The bundled list covers common English words so the tool stays instant and offline. Rare or technical words may be missing.
- It does not solve multi-word anagrams. It finds single dictionary words, not full anagram phrases.
- It does not store your input. Nothing you type is saved or transmitted.
