Design files rarely hand you a font name. Upload a screenshot, a page from a PDF, a logo scan or a photo of printed type — typeye identifies the typeface in seconds, entirely in your browser, and names the licence under every result so you know what you can ship.
The identifier reads letterforms, not filenames — so it works on flattened artwork, rasterized PDF pages and photos of printed matter, not just live text.
Screenshot the word, export the PDF page or photograph the printed sample. Flat, evenly lit captures identify best.
Crop to a single word or line. Distinctive letters — the g, the a, the numerals — carry the most signal.
typeye scores all 2,004 open-source families on your device and returns the closest five with live specimens and a confidence score.
Every result names its licence. Open-source means you can license and ship it today; the identifier says so on the same screen.
The matching engine compares shapes, so the source can be almost anything rendered — with honest limits stated up front:
The strongest case: UI screenshots, posters, decks. 73% top-1, 93% top-5 on rendered text.
Works when the letters survive capture. Clean scans identify well; harsh shadows and skewed angles lower the score.
Logos set in an open-source family identify cleanly. Custom-drawn letterforms return the closest relatives — a starting point, not a verdict.
The benchmarks below come from the shipped engine. They exist so you can judge the ranking before you trust it.
Measured on the shipped engine — keep this table honest when the engine changes.
This page is written for the workflow question — “which typeface is in this file?”. The same tool answers the other framings:
A name alone doesn't finish the job. Every result in typeye names its licence, and when the identified family is open source you can download, embed and ship it commercially the same hour.
When the type points at a commercial face, the closest open-source relative is the practical answer: visually close, licensed, available now. For brand-critical work, confirm the identification with the foundry.
Licence and source link sit under every result — identification and licensing decision on one screen.
Upload the screenshot to typeye, frame one line of type, and the identifier ranks the closest families in seconds — on your device, with live specimens and confidence scores.
Yes, when the letters survive rendering. Export or screenshot the page and frame a clean line. Flattened and rasterized pages work the same way — the engine reads shapes, not text layers.
When the logo is set in an open-source family, yes. Custom-drawn letterforms get the closest relatives instead — useful as a starting point, not a final verdict.
Rendered text: 73% top-1, 93% top-5. Photos of print: 26% top-1, 49% top-5, rising to 44% after re-framing a distinctive word. The identifier publishes these numbers so you can calibrate trust.
Free, unlimited, no account. Paid plans add batch recognition and ticket support; identification itself is never metered.
No. Identification runs in your browser; the image never leaves the tab. Re-ranking may fetch candidate font files from Google Fonts, but only family names are sent.
