What it does

Creating crossword usually takes a lot of time and effort. You need to come up with words, write clues and somehow find a way to fit everything together. I made this app to take a bit of that load off your shoulders. Just enter a theme and it will help you generate a complete (or finish what you started) crossword for you in a matter of seconds. Whether you're a hobbyist, creator, educator or anyone who just wants to start making crosswords, you can on this puzzle making journey with us.

Generate complete, connected crosswords with our purpose-built algorithm, 500,000+ words, and 1.5M+ clues—then refine every detail with the Builder Agent.
