Pricing Model

Desktop per computer, Web by unique visitors, App by developer count — three transparent metrics.

Pricing basis: Three main types with their own metric: Desktop per computer within an organisation, Web by unique monthly visitors, App by number of developers. Modular and transparent — each type is offered in multiple tiers.
Who licenses: The purchasing organisation. Licenses are not cross-organisational: anyone producing their own output needs their own license; the client does too. When purchasing for a third party you remain bound by the EULA but may not use the font yourself.
Term: One-time payment, no subscription. Upgrades are charged only as the difference to the higher tier.
Perpetual

Desktop, Web, and App are separate licenses — Desktop also covers broadcast and OOH.

Desktop: Use in applications producing output such as Adobe CC, Figma, MS Office — print, video, social media posts, logos. PDF embedding permitted; embedding in other formats is not. Per computer. Also covers broadcast, advertising, and OOH as long as the producing computers are desktop-licensed.
Web: Webfonts via @font-face, any number of domains and servers within the organisation. WOFF / WOFF2, self-hosting only. Measured by unique monthly visitors.
Pageviews
App: Embedding in desktop and mobile apps. Measured by number of developers — no limit on app count, platform, or downloads.
Per developer
Server: Automated document generation and tools such as Canva. Measured by documents per year. Available on request.
HTML5 Ad: Ads with embedded font files for live text. Measured by impressions per year.

Logo use is included in Desktop at no extra charge — no special license required.

Logo / Wordmark: No special license needed — logos are covered by the Desktop license as long as the producing computers are licensed.
Included in Desktop
Office embed: Own license to embed fonts in MS Office files shared with third parties. Measured by computer count.
