Anagram Solver
Rearrange every letter — exact anagrams, partial matches, and phrase puzzles with punctuation stripped automatically.
Unlike the Word Unscrambler, which finds all subset words from a rack, this tool is built for anagram puzzles: full-length rearrangements, phrase normalization, and results split into Exact, Partial, and Top Scoring sections.

Three anagram modes explained
Exact Anagrams require every letter you enter to appear in the answer — LISTEN becomes SILENT, ENLIST, or TINSEL, not shorter words like NET. Use this for newspaper anagrams, classroom exercises, and full-rack rearrangement drills.
Partial Anagrams list shorter words still buildable from your letters. Helpful when a puzzle allows unused tiles or when you are brainstorming hooks before a big play.
Phrase Mode converts inputs like "rail safety" into railsafety before searching — the classic setup for RAIL SAFETY → FAIRY TALES style clues.
Frequently asked questions
- How is this different from the Word Unscrambler?
- The Word Unscrambler finds every word you can make from any subset of your tiles — ideal for Scrabble rack play. This Anagram Solver focuses on rearrangement puzzles: Exact Anagrams use every letter, Partial Anagrams find shorter words, and Phrase Mode strips spaces before matching.
- What is Phrase Mode?
- Phrase Mode removes spaces and punctuation before searching. Entering "rail safety" normalizes to "railsafety" so you can solve newspaper-style phrase anagrams without manual cleanup.
- What are Exact vs Partial Anagrams?
- Exact Anagrams must use all of your letters (same length, same multiset). Partial Anagrams include shorter words built from a subset — useful when a puzzle allows leftover letters or when you are exploring options.
- Can I use blank tiles?
- Yes. Type ? for unknown letters. Filters for word length and starts-with stay visible — no hidden accordion — so you can constrain crossword-style answers quickly.
- Does this page replace /anagram-generator?
- Yes. /anagram-solver is the only canonical anagram tool URL on unscrambletools.com. Any legacy alias redirects here permanently.
- Is the anagram solver free?
- Yes. Unlimited searches, no account required, with Scrabble scores on every result.
