Spelling Bee Solver

Word list: 113,515 words - Scores use the NYT Spelling Bee rules

Enter the seven letters from any Spelling Bee hive - the center letter in the yellow box, the other six beside it - and this tool finds every word those letters can make. Letters can repeat, every word includes the center letter, and every word is at least four letters long.

How scoring works

A four-letter word scores 1 point. A longer word scores one point per letter. A pangram scores its length plus 7 bonus points. Genius takes 70 percent of the total points on the board, rounded down. Finding every word makes you a Queen Bee.

About this word list

The list is built from SCOWL, the spell-checker word lists, plus every word the NYT has accepted in the puzzles in our archive. In testing against the 387 accepted words in our October 19 to 27, 2026 archive, the base list found 91 percent of them, and it returns some extra words the NYT does not accept - the NYT edits its list by hand, and no outside list matches it exactly. For the official word list for a specific day, use that day's page: today's Spelling Bee or the Spelling Bee answers archive.
