A programmer on Reddit shows off his custom MATLAB program that tries to solve WOF puzzles as quickly as possible based on revealed letters and incorrect guessed letters. The coolest part is that this is completely automatic; the program scans a video capture of the episode and automatically knows the number of letters and words by scanning what spaces are white or green, and scans the "letter circles" to know what letters are being called and which ones are not in the puzzle.
Here is a video of his program running during the Speed-Up Round of last Monday's episode.
