Built for people
who notice two pixels.

The web is full of great ideas.
TRACE makes them readable.

Not a code dump. Not another developer panel. A visual instrument designed for designers.

[ 02 — LIVE READER ]

Read.
Rebuild.

[ 07 — SMALL PRINT ]

Good questions.

01Does TRACE copy font files?

No. TRACE identifies what a page uses, but never downloads font files. Always check the license before using a typeface.

02Does it send page content anywhere?

No. TRACE analyses the active tab locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to TRACE servers.

03Does it work on every website?

It works on standard websites. Chrome protects internal pages, the Web Store and some cross-origin rules.

04How does pricing work?

Your first 30 days include unlimited Pro access with no card required. After that, keep 20 Full Reads every month for free or go unlimited for $1.99/month or $19.99/year. Installing TRACE never starts a charge automatically.
