Poppins 600 / Inter 400 — click the text to edit

Why it works

Poppins brings circular geometric personality to headlines, but its perfectly round letterforms tire the eye in paragraphs — which is precisely where Inter, drawn for UI text with a tall x-height and open apertures, takes over. The two share a clean, monolinear finish, so the page feels like one modern system rather than two fonts negotiating. This is the default voice of contemporary SaaS marketing sites, and it earns that status.
