Guided identifier Answer a few questions about the letters and we narrow it down to the closest matches. Compare fonts Stack several families in the same text, side by side, to spot the exact one. Identify from an image Upload a screenshot or photo and get best-effort suggestions from the library.

The guided identifier needs JavaScript. In the meantime you can browse the library by the kind of letterform you are looking for:

How font identification works here

1

Describe the letters

Look at a few tell-tale characters - do the strokes end in little feet (serifs)? Is it rounded or geometric? Answer as many questions as you can and skip the rest.

2

We score every family

Each answer scores the whole library against traits we know about every font, then the closest matches rise to the top - all rendered live in their real webfont.

3

Download the match, free

Every suggestion is a genuinely open-licensed font you can download and self-host at no cost - no lookalike paywall at the end.

Ko nga pātai e pā ana

Use the guided identifier above: answer a few questions about the lettershapes - serif or sans, stroke contrast, the shape of the a and g - and it ranks the closest matches from our library of free, open-source fonts. Every match is a free download, not a paid upsell.

Yes - the image tool lets you upload a screenshot and suggests visually similar free fonts from our own catalog. It runs on our servers, matches only free fonts, and never sends your image to a third party. It is a best-effort beta, so for an exact answer the guided identifier and the side-by-side compare tool are usually more reliable.

Same goal - figure out what a font is - but everything it points you to is free and open source, self-hosted here, with no font to buy at the end. The guided identifier narrows by the actual letterforms rather than needing a clean photo.

Yes. The same engine is available as a developer API for programmatic and bulk use, with a free tier and paid volume tiers. The human tools on this page stay free.
