What font does Raycast use?
Raycast’s dark, polished site runs on the most common font in product design. The craft is in the details: OpenType features and slightly open tracking on small text.
Short answer: Raycast uses Inter for almost all text, with Geist Mono for small technical labels. Both are open source and self-hosted.

Sizes, weights and spacing by role
These are computed values from the live page, which is what the Font Inspector panel shows when you click each element.
| Role | Font | Size | Weight | Line height | Letter spacing |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Headline | Inter | 64px | 600 | 1.1 | normal |
| Subheading | Inter | 56px | 400 | 1.17 | 0.004em |
| Button | Inter | 14px | 500 | 1.14 | 0.014em |
| Small text | Inter | 12px | 400 | 1.5 | 0.033em |
The main font stack in the CSS:
font-family: Inter, "Inter Fallback", sans-serif;- Small text is opened up: 0.033em of tracking at 12px, which helps light text on a dark background.
- The headline enables Inter’s stylistic sets

}How we checked
We opened raycast.com in Chrome on September 21, 2026 and read the computed styles of its visible text: the declared font stack, the font actually rendered, and how much of the page’s text each family sets. That is the same data the Font Inspector extension shows under Fonts on this page. We re-check these pages periodically, and the date above shows the last inspection.
