How PLATE Solved STAFF in Five Guesses

PLATE placed A correctly and showed that T was in the word but in a different position, leaving 124 words that could still be the answer. SCANT cut that to 14, STAIR to 7, WINGS to 2, and the Word Bot selected STAFF for guess five.

PLATE → 124 → SCANT → 14 → STAIR → 7 → WINGS → 2 → STAFF
