Identify any font from a website URL
The most accurate way to identify a font on a live website. Paste the URL — Get Font Info reads the CSS the browser used and returns the exact font name, weight and source. No screenshots, no pixel matching, no guessing.
Reads the live CSS
The font name comes straight from the page's CSS — the same value the browser used to render the text. That makes the result exact, not a probable match.
Guesses from pixels
Tools like WhatTheFont, Matcherator and FontSquirrel compare letter shapes against a catalog. Useful when you only have an image, but often wrong on short text or unusual weights.
When URL-based identification is the right choice
- Auditing a competitor's design system
- Reverse-engineering a website you admire
- Documenting a brand's typography for a redesign
- Finding the exact weight of a variable font
- Identifying the font on a headline, button or paragraph
- Pulling the @font-face URL to self-host the same font
How CSS-based font identification works
Every web page declares its fonts through CSS — a stack of font-family values on each element, plus @font-face rules that tell the browser where to download custom fonts. Get Font Info downloads the page, follows every stylesheet, parses both kinds of rule, and matches each declaration to the elements that use it.
The result is the same data the browser sees: the exact font names, the weights and styles loaded, the file URLs they came from, and whether they are served by Google Fonts, Adobe Fonts, a custom CDN or the visitor's operating system. Because nothing is being guessed from pixels, the identification is accurate by construction — you get the actual font, not the closest visual match.
Frequently asked questions
How do I identify a font from a website?
Paste the website's URL into Get Font Info. The tool fetches the page, parses every CSS font-family and @font-face rule, and returns the exact font names used — no image matching, no guessing. Hover any element in the live preview to see the font for that specific piece of text.
What is the difference between identifying a font from a URL vs from an image?
From a URL, the font name is read directly from the CSS the browser used to render the page — the answer is exact. From an image, the tool has to compare pixel shapes against a font catalog and pick the closest visual match, which often fails on short text, custom weights or variable fonts. URL-based identification is more accurate whenever the source page is available.
Can I identify a font on a single element, like a logo or button?
Yes. After analyzing the URL, hover any text in the live preview to see the font used for that element — including weight, size, line-height and the @font-face source URL. For SVG or rasterised logos there is no CSS font, so you would need an image-based identifier instead.
Does this work on websites that hide fonts behind JavaScript or framework font loaders?
Yes. Get Font Info renders the page in a real browser context, so fonts injected by JavaScript, dynamic @font-face declarations or framework font loaders (such as Next.js font optimization) are detected once they are applied to the DOM.
Is this an alternative to WhatTheFont, Fontspring Matcherator or FontSquirrel?
It is a different category. WhatTheFont, Matcherator and FontSquirrel identify fonts from images. Get Font Info identifies fonts from a website URL by reading the CSS. Use image-based tools when you only have a picture, and Get Font Info whenever you have a URL — it is more accurate because there is no guessing step.
