Gematria in headlines refers to the practice of using gematria, a form of Jewish mysticism that assigns numerical values to words or phrases, to create or interpret headlines in a way that conveys hidden meanings or messages. Gematria (גימטריה) is derived from the Greek word geometria, meaning "geometry," but in Hebrew context, it refers to the numerical value of letters. This practice is often used in sensational or cryptic headlines to engage readers or to hint at deeper, often controversial, underlying messages. For example, a headline might use words or phrases that, when their letters are converted to numerical values and summed, correspond to significant numbers or dates. This technique is not limited to Hebrew but can be applied to any language with a numerical alphabet system, such as Greek or Arabic. In modern media, gematria in headlines is sometimes employed to attract attention or to cater to audiences interested in numerology, mysticism, or conspiracy theories.

The calculator gematria tool supports multiple alphabets and standard letter–number mappings. More systems will be added in the future.
The reverse gematria calculator uses the same alphabet as the standard system but assigns values in reverse order (for example, A = 26, B = 25, …, Z = 1 in a basic English reverse setup). This lets you compare standard and reverse values for the same text.
