The days of choosing the same typeface, from the same marketplace, as every other designer are over
When you start a new design project, you might know exactly what you want it to look like. But you don’t have time to waste browsing the web for dozens of hours in search of the perfect font.
  1. Your client doesn’t have the budget to invest in an expensive new typeface.
  2. Free fonts are often missing glyphs and punctuation.
  3. Creating a typeface by hand requires hundreds of hours.
With Prototypo, typography is more approachable than ever. Try it out for yourself, for free.
Design your font
What if you could own all the rights to your typeface when you’re done? And what if you could move every project closer to your original vision without settling for anything less?

What if you could design a font quickly and easily in your browser?

You could add one more skill to your repertoire.

You could provide even more value for your clients.

You could make more money by charging for your unique fonts.

Paula Scher, Partner - Pentagram
“You can see a typeface in different widths, you can see it with serifs and without, you can manipulate it very quickly. The possibilities are huge.”
Kristen Malone, Director - Kiku Obata & Company
“We wanted to give Schema Projects a unique identity that was completely ownable. ...customising a typeface through prototypo was the best means in regard to time and budget. It also was a chance for us to showcase another skill set within the company for clients.”
Craig Hansen, Founder - Studio Principle
“The big guys are for sure going to create a custom typeface. If you’re a single person running a small studio—that’s not realistic. With Prototypo, I can make custom typefaces on a branding project and I could charge more.”
Manuel Wesely, Art Director - MM, M
“What we like in Prototypo: the base type design just works. It really takes a lot of bad will to turn your font unuseful — and yet it still looks charming.”
Jill Kearton, Studio Manager - Wieden+Kennedy NYC
“I love that you can get into the different glyphs— types and numbers. It forces you to think about these things and put the time into it. It’s easy to use.”
