What the web is set in

Every week we load 9,405 homepages in a real browser and record which fonts they use. Last crawl: Nov 1, 2026.

Free fonts appear in their own typeface. Grey names are commercial fonts we can’t license. System fonts use your device’s copy. Sparklines show the trend across 7570 sites we can trace back in time, dashed where estimated from web archives.
