I use the OneLook reverse dictionary all the time to try to find the right word (not for crosswords), but I do wish it were smarter. If only someone would make a deep-learning-based reverse dictionary.

A few years ago I tried some (pre-BERT) deep-learning based approaches, but nothing panned out. The "dumb" information-retrieval based approach that my service currently uses is certainly bad, but stubbornly not as bad as all the alternatives I've tried in the 15 years since creating it!
