Why use Utils365

  • Any language

    Words are found the way your browser splits them, so Chinese, Japanese and Thai work as well as English.

  • Clean results

    Common English words are left out by default and numbers are ignored, so the cloud shows the words that carry meaning.

  • Ready for slides

    A transparent PNG drops onto any slide colour; a white one prints well.

  • Private

    The cloud is drawn in your browser. Survey answers and drafts never leave your device.

Frequently asked questions

How is a word cloud made?

Each word is counted, and the most frequent ones are drawn biggest, starting in the middle and spiralling outward until every word finds a free spot. Sizes follow the square root of the count, so smaller words stay readable.

Which words are left out?

With Leave out common English words ticked, about 230 words such as the, and, of, it’s and would are skipped. Numbers are always skipped. Untick the box to keep every word.

How many words can it show?

From 10 to 200. If some don’t fit, the cloud is drawn smaller; the note under the cloud says if any were still left out.

Does capitalisation matter?

No. London and london count as the same word, shown the way it was written most often.

Can I get a transparent background?

Yes. Choose Transparent under PNG background before you download. The colours are mid-tones, so they read on both light and dark slides.

Does it work for Chinese or Japanese?

Yes. Words are split with the browser’s built-in word breaker, so 我喜欢猫 becomes 我, 喜欢 and 猫 rather than one long word.

Why does the layout change?

Click New layout for a different arrangement of the same words. Changing the font, direction or word count also redraws it.
