About CrosswordMate

Last updated: 2026-08-17

CrosswordMate is an independent puzzle tool built for people who love crosswords but hate being stuck on one clue.

Our Method

Three steps: pattern filter (your known letters cut ~100k words down to the few that fit), AI reading (a language model ranks candidates and explains them), and programmatic verification (anagram letters, substrings and lengths are re-checked; unverified parsing is labeled). Details on how it works.

Independence

We are not affiliated with any newspaper or puzzle publisher. Compatibility mentions describe the clues we work with, nothing more.
