Steps to generate word cloud
Add your words
Open the Words tab and build your word list — every word gets its own size, so your most important words appear the biggest. In a hurry? Switch to Paste text and drop in a whole paragraph (words that repeat automatically show up larger), or use Quick add to type words one after another.
Pick a shape
In the Shape tab, choose the outline your words will fill: a heart, star, cloud, cat, flower, lightning bolt, tree, and more. You can also type a word or your initials to use the letters themselves as the shape, or upload your own photo and the generator will trace its silhouette as a custom mask. Turn on Repeat words to fill the shape for a denser design, and pick a square, landscape, portrait, or wide canvas.
Style it your way
The Style tab has 16 color palettes — from Sunset Pop and Bubblegum to Neon Night and Retro Wave — plus a shelf of playful fonts like Bangers, Pacifico, and Chewy. You can even upload your own font file. Set the word orientation to straight, mixed, vertical, tilted, rising, or full chaos, fine-tune word size and spacing with sliders, and choose any background color — or keep it transparent.
Shuffle until you love it
Every click of the Shuffle button rearranges your words into a fresh layout with the same settings. Found a keeper? Hit Share this design in the Export tab to copy a link that recreates your exact word cloud.
Download the final output file
Export your design as a high-resolution PNG (perfect for printing and sharing) or as an SVG vector that stays razor-sharp at any size — ideal for Cricut and other cutting machines. Transparent backgrounds are supported in both formats, and everything runs right in your browser: your words and images are never uploaded anywhere.
Print or cut the output file.
Print it on merchandise like t-shirts, bags, or coffee mugs.
