Fontjoy - AI Font Pairing Made Simple for Designers
Visit Tool →
Fontjoy Brief overview
Fontjoy is a free, browser-based AI tool that helps you find font combinations that look good together. It uses machine learning to suggest harmonious pairings that share a similar “feel” while still having enough contrast for clear hierarchy (for example, headline vs body text).
The interface shows three sample text blocks (typically heading, subheading, and body). With one click, Fontjoy generates a new set of fonts from a large library and applies them to the preview so you can see the pairing in context.
Fontjoy is widely referenced in design blogs and font-pairing roundups, and has even been covered by Wired for its use of machine learning in typography. Third‑party review sites generally rate it highly, with some listing user scores around 4.8/5, indicating strong satisfaction among designers.
How to use Fontjoy
- Go to fontjoy.com in your browser.
- Look at the automatically generated font combination shown on the page (headline, subheading, body).
- Click Generate to get a new set of font pairings.
- If you like one of the fonts, click the lock icon next to it so it stays while you shuffle the others.
- Use the slider at the top to change how similar or contrasting the fonts should be (low contrast vs high contrast).
- Click the Edit icon to manually pick a specific font from the list if you have one in mind.
- Replace the sample text with your own (brand name, headings, website copy) to see how the pairing actually looks in your project.
You can then copy the font names and use them in tools like Figma, Canva, or your website’s CSS.
