Word Cloud Generator
Turn any text into a word cloud sized by frequency, and save it as a PNG.
Turn Text Into a Word Cloud
A word cloud sizes each word by how often it appears, which makes the dominant themes of a body of text visible at a glance. Survey responses, reviews, meeting notes and transcripts all reveal something useful this way.
The step that separates a useful cloud from a useless one is stop-word removal. Without it, "the", "and" and "of" dominate every cloud ever made. This generator filters them by default, lets you add your own, and builds everything on a canvas in your browser — which matters when the text is survey data or internal notes.
Key features
- Stop words filtered — common English filler removed by default, with your own additions accepted.
- Frequency-proportional sizing — with a square-root scale so one very common word does not swamp everything.
- Colour schemes — several palettes plus a monochrome option for print.
- Frequency table alongside — the actual counts, because the picture is an illustration and the numbers are the data.
- PNG download — high resolution, suitable for slides and reports.
This tool runs entirely inside your browser using native Web APIs. Your files and text are never uploaded to a server, never logged and never shared with third parties.

Frequently asked questions
What are stop words and why remove them?
Function words like "the", "is" and "of" that carry no topical meaning but dominate any frequency count. Without filtering, every word cloud looks the same. Removing them is what makes the result about your text rather than about English.
Why is the biggest word not much bigger than the rest?
Sizing uses a square-root scale deliberately. Linear sizing on real text produces one enormous word and a fog of tiny illegible ones, because word frequencies follow a steep distribution.
Are word clouds actually useful?
For a quick impression of themes, yes. As analysis, they are weak — they lose context, negation and relationships entirely, so "not helpful" registers as "helpful". Use one to start a conversation, not to end one.
Is my text uploaded?
No. Counting, layout and rendering all happen in the page. That matters when the text is customer feedback or internal notes.
