Fontofweb – Discover Fonts Used on a Website or Websites Using Font(s)
Hey HN, I've been working on fontofweb.com on and off for the past 4 years, and I'm keen to share it with you. It lets you type in the URL of any website and see exactly how the fonts are used: all the weights, line heights, and sizes. A big plus is that it doesn't require a Chrome extension, unlike a lot of other tools in this space. You can also search for a specific font and find websites using it. For example, check out sites using Inter: https://fontofweb.com/w/inter. This reverse font search even supports looking for multiple fonts at once, like here’s an example…
Fontofweb – Discover Fonts Used on a Website or Websites Using Font(s) launched on May 31, 2025 with 70 votes, #580 of 7,905 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.
In plain words
Fontofweb is a web tool that identifies fonts used on any website, showing their weights, line heights, and sizes without requiring a browser extension. Users can enter a URL to analyze font usage or reverse-search for websites that use specific fonts, including multiple fonts at once. The tool builds a database of font usage patterns across the web to reveal typography trends and preferences.

Font Tester2024 · font-tester.foxcraft.tech · ▲280I've been looking for new fonts to use for a new project, but there weren't any great tools for seeing how a particular serif font for headers would look with another sans font for paragraph text, so I built a tool that lets you compare, adjust, and tinker with the way you'd use a font in your specific project before downloading it/setting it up. This is only using the free Google fonts for now. If there are other open-source fonts I should add, let me know and I'll add them!

Tapflow 2.0▲1,125We built Tapflow for devs, designers, PMs, and tech folks who’ve been sitting on internal docs, templates, and systems — but never productized them. Upload a PDF, notes, or workshop deck, and Tapflow drafts a structured product (with chapters, teaser and pricing plans). It’s good for AI kits, onboarding guides, design systems, and frameworks. You can sell through Stripe, LemonSqueezy, or PayPal. Real-time collaboration is in early beta. No site builder, no LMS — clean design and just focused tools to ship. Fully bootstrapped and just launched on PH today →…
