How to Find Scrabble Words — Free Word Finder (2026)

By Rui Barreira · Last updated: 18 June 2026

You can find the highest-scoring words from your Scrabble rack using the brevio Scrabble Word Finder — free, no signup, runs entirely in your browser. Enter up to 7 letters and get a ranked list of valid words with point values instantly.

How to Use the Tool

  1. Open the brevio Scrabble Word Finder. No account required.
  2. Type your rack letters in the input field. You can enter up to 7 letters. Use a ? for a blank tile.
  3. Click Find Words. The tool shows all valid words you can form from those letters, sorted by Scrabble point value from highest to lowest.
  4. Click any word to copy it to your clipboard.

Scrabble Letter Values

Each letter in Scrabble has a point value based on how commonly it appears in English. High-frequency letters like E, A, I, O, N, R, S, T, L, U are worth 1 point. Less common letters are worth more: D and G are worth 2, B, C, M, P worth 3, F, H, V, W, Y worth 4, K worth 5, J and X worth 8, and Q and Z worth 10 points each.

The score of a word is the sum of its individual letter values (before any board multipliers). A 7-letter word using all your tiles triggers a "bingo" bonus of 50 points in standard Scrabble. The tool shows base word scores without board multipliers since those depend on tile placement.

Strategy Tips for High-Scoring Plays

High-value letters like Q, Z, X, and J are tempting but can block your rack if you cannot play them. Q almost always needs a U, so holding both letters is advantageous. Short high-value words like QI (11 points), ZA (11 points), XI (9 points), and JO (9 points) are worth memorising for tight board situations.

Balance your rack by aiming for a mix of vowels and consonants (roughly 2–3 vowels to 3–4 consonants). Avoid holding too many S tiles — one S held in reserve for a high-value play is good strategy, but two or more S tiles tie up valuable rack space.
