Roadmap
What’s coming.
Everything Typetin is building, and where each part stands. Nothing here is open to foundries yet; an item is described as working only once a foundry can use it.
Status key
- Building Code exists and is being tested
- Planned Decided, not started
Your storefront
A storefront in seconds
BuildingSign up and your foundry has a working storefront on a Typetin subdomain, with no one from Typetin involved.
Your own domain
BuildingPoint your own domain at your storefront by adding one DNS record. You keep the domain and the DNS; TLS is automatic.
Live specimens
BuildingTypeface pages show your fonts as live, editable type, generated from the files you upload.
Your look, not ours
BuildingColours, type and spacing are theme tokens you set, with custom CSS on top. Nothing on your storefront has to look like Typetin.
Drag-and-drop pages
BuildingBuild pages from type-specific blocks (testers, weight grids, glyph sets, licence pickers) with a live preview in your own theme and fonts.
Fonts in, webfonts out
Upload a family, get a catalogue
BuildingUpload a release as it leaves your desk. Typetin reads the files, groups families and styles, maps variable instances and makes WOFF2 webfonts and subsets.
Trial fonts
BuildingTrial versions of your fonts, generated from your own files.
Fingerprinted downloads
BuildingEvery order’s fonts carry a signed fingerprint that traces a file back to its licence.
Hosted webfonts, with usage
BuildingEach web licence gets a hosted webfont kit that serves only the licensed domains and counts pageviews, so you can see usage against what was bought.
Licences
Licences that fit type
BuildingLicence groups, tiers and multipliers for desktop, web, app and more, with presets you can edit.
Versioned EULAs
BuildingEvery order records which version of your EULA the buyer accepted.
Term licences and renewals
BuildingLicences priced by term, with renewal orders and reminders sent before a term lapses.
Quotes that hold their price
BuildingSend a quote whose prices are frozen when you issue it, so the buyer pays what you quoted even if your prices change.
Selling and getting paid
Your own Stripe account
BuildingConnect your own Stripe account. Buyers pay you directly and Typetin takes 0% commission.
Checkout and tax
BuildingCheckout on your storefront, with Stripe Tax calculated on your own account.
Discounts
BuildingDiscount codes and automatic discounts, priced by the server on every order.
Customer accounts
BuildingBuyers get an account per foundry with order history and re-downloads. Download links last 90 days and can be re-issued any time.
Email from your domain
BuildingOrder and download emails sent from your own sending domain.
Royalty statements across designers
BuildingEach designer’s share is recorded on every order line at the time of sale, with statements per designer, period and currency, and refunds reversed.
PayPal and merchant of record
BuildingTake PayPal through your own PayPal account, or use a merchant-of-record provider if you would rather not file sales tax.
Multiple currencies
BuildingSet explicit prices in each currency you sell in, with royalties and statements kept in the order’s currency.
Merchandise
PlannedSell printed matter and objects alongside your fonts.
Ownership and leaving
One-click export
BuildingExport your catalogue, font files, customers, orders, licences and royalty records in open formats, on every plan, including after you cancel.
Platform
30-day trial, no card
BuildingTry every part of your plan for 30 days without entering a card.
Public API
BuildingRead your catalogue, orders, licences and customers from your own site or tools, with order webhooks, so a foundry with its own site can keep it.
Sales and traffic analytics
PlannedSales and traffic reports in your Typetin admin.
Priority support
PlannedA priority support queue, and a service-level agreement on the Studio plan.
Your own deployment
PlannedRun your storefront on a dedicated deployment, with custom code blocks of your own.
