XW Stats allows New York Times crossword solvers to link their account and get automatic statistics and downloads of their solve data. Track your progress as you get better at solving, see how other users fared on the puzzle, and more. And it's free!
I'm so excited to share my COVID side project, XW Stats, with Product Hunt today! I've been solving crossword puzzles every day for years and always wanted a better way to track my solve times and see if I was improving. The NYT app has a stats tab but the information is far too limited for my taste. XW Stats started as a simple little Python script and eventually became a full on web app that automatically pulls solve times for hundreds of fellow solvers. If you're a stats nerd and solve the NYT crossword puzzle I encourage you to check it out!
