Prompt is also good, yet a bit larger.

Raleway could also be a good contender

Here's a few choices:

Avenir

Gibson

Proxima Nova

Montserrat

Gibson and Proxima are on typekit, Montserrat on Google Fonts

I choosed Nunito at first but Lato seems to be the closest as i see now.

Nunito

Nunito is an excellent match to Avenir. The ascenders are slightly higher in Avenir but even the most persnickety designer would have a hard time telling them apart.

I don't think there is a really obvious choice to replace Avenir in Google Fonts.

However, I recently had to ask myself this question, and my answer was and is Lato:

The letters occupy similar amounts of space, the letterforms are in the right ballpark, and the font has a robust set of weights/italics for you to use.
