The AI software that solves crossword puzzles using NLP technology and the web

Crossword puzzles are both a popular language game and a fascinating area of research in artificial intelligence.

Solving them requires a combination of skills:

Comprehension

Determining the correct answer requires a sequence of language and logic steps that starts with understanding the clue.

Rich and Extensive Knowledge

Understanding language requires technology and tools that reason and infer meaning from different pieces of information. These tools include ontologies, knowledge graphs, self-updating web knowledge and solved crossword puzzles.

Smart Reasoning

WebCrow uses a combination of NLU expertise and AI and ML solutions to identify potential answers, evaluate them and enter them into the puzzle grid.
