About

Font Thief — Instantly Identify Any Font on the Web

WhatFont is dead. Font Thief is its modern successor.

Hover over any text on any website to instantly see the exact font family, size, weight, line-height, color, and letter-spacing. Click to copy the CSS. Done.

Features

Instant Font Detection — Hover over any text element to see a polished tooltip showing the resolved font family, size, weight, line-height, letter-spacing, and color. No guessing, no digging through DevTools.

One-Click CSS Copy — Click any element to copy its typography CSS to your clipboard, perfectly formatted and ready to paste into your code.

Page Typography Audit — Open the popup to see every font used on the page, ranked by how many elements use it. Know at a glance what "Inter - 47 elements" or "Georgia - 12 elements" looks like across the site.

Color Palette Extraction — Automatically detects all text colors used on the page. Click any swatch to copy the hex value.

Recent Picks History — Your last 5 font inspections are saved with their full CSS, so you never lose track of a typeface you spotted.

Clean Activation — No always-on content scripts. Font Thief only activates when you click the icon, and deactivates with Escape or clicking again. Zero performance impact when idle.

How It Works

1. Click the Font Thief icon in your toolbar
2. Hover over any text — a tooltip shows the exact font info
