Guides
Paste any text and get a word cloud back as clean, scalable SVG — word frequency drives font size, so the words that matter most stand out immediately. This free online word cloud generator runs entirely in your browser: nothing you paste is ever uploaded.
How to use it
- Paste your text (an essay, a set of survey responses, a speech transcript — anything).
- Pick a Shape (rectangle, circle, or ellipse) and a Canvas size.
- Adjust Max words, the font size range, and Rotation to taste.
- Under Filtering, keep Exclude common stop words on to skip words like "the" and "and", set a Min word length, and add any Custom exclusions (comma-separated) specific to your text.
- Copy the SVG source or download it — it's a self-contained file with no external dependencies.
Don't like the arrangement? Change the Layout seed to a different number to get a new spiral packing without touching your text or settings.
Why is the output SVG instead of a PNG?
SVG scales to any size without pixelation, is tiny to download, and can be edited afterward (colors, fonts) in any vector editor — and it's what lets this tool run without a <canvas> at all, so nothing ever leaves your browser.
Why did some words get skipped?
Word placement uses a spiral search that tries increasingly distant positions from the center until it finds a spot the word fits without overlapping an already-placed word. If a word can't find any free spot within the canvas — usually because Max words or Max font size is high relative to the canvas size — it's dropped, and the Summary reports how many. Try a larger canvas, fewer max words, or a smaller max font size.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. Tokenizing, frequency counting and layout all run locally in your browser; your text is never sent to a server.
