Website Font Scanner – Analyse Fonts Used by Any Website

Have you ever visited a website and wondered which fonts it uses? Whether you're identifying typography for inspiration, auditing your own website or analysing performance, knowing exactly which fonts are loaded can provide valuable insight.

Our free Website Font Scanner analyses any publicly accessible webpage and reports every webfont it loads. The scanner identifies Google Fonts, self-hosted fonts, font formats, font weights, font-display settings, Unicode ranges and total font payload size, giving you a complete overview of a site's typography.

You can also download every detected font file in a single ZIP archive, making it easy to inspect font files or compare implementations across different websites.

What Does the Website Font Scanner Detect?

The scanner examines the fonts referenced by a webpage and provides detailed information about each one.

Results include:

  • Font family names.
  • Google Fonts and self-hosted fonts.
  • Font weights and styles.
  • WOFF and WOFF2 font formats.
  • font-display values.
  • Unicode ranges.
  • Individual font file sizes.
  • Total font payload size.
  • Download links for detected fonts.

This information helps developers understand exactly how a website delivers its typography.

Why Scan Website Fonts?

Website typography affects both appearance and performance.

Scanning a website's fonts can help you:

  • Identify fonts used by a website.
  • Check whether fonts are hosted locally or served by Google Fonts.
  • Audit page performance.
  • Reduce unnecessary font downloads.
  • Verify font-display settings.
  • Inspect Unicode range optimisation.
  • Learn from well-designed websites.

Whether you're maintaining your own site or researching another, understanding font delivery can lead to faster, more efficient webpages.

Google Fonts vs Self-Hosted Fonts

Many websites rely on Google Fonts because they're simple to implement.

However, some organisations prefer to self-host fonts for reasons including:

  • Improved privacy.
  • Fewer third-party requests.
  • Faster loading.
  • Greater caching control.
  • Offline or intranet deployments.

The Website Font Scanner clearly identifies whether each font comes from Google Fonts or a self-hosted source.

Performance Analysis

Fonts contribute to a webpage's total download size.

Large font families with multiple weights can significantly increase loading times, particularly on mobile devices.

Our scanner calculates the total font payload and highlights opportunities to improve performance, such as reducing unnecessary weights, removing unused styles or self-hosting fonts where appropriate.

Download Detected Font Files

In addition to analysing fonts, the scanner can bundle every detected font file into a downloadable ZIP archive.

This makes it easy to inspect font metadata, compare versions or analyse implementations during development and testing.
