About the Micro 5 font
Micro 5 is a display typeface designed by Sarah Cadigan-Fried, first released to Google Fonts on February 2024. It ships with 1 weight and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a high x-height at 80% of the cap height, condensed letter forms and low stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Micro 5 against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
Want to check whether Micro 5 is the face in a screenshot you have? Run it through the free font identifier, or browse the full library of 1,935 open-source fonts for something with a similar feel.
