TypeLab Pro 1.0
For designers who care about type, but are tired of the endless font scroll and guessing on every project.
TypeLab turns font chaos into a typography system you trust, so you can lock in confident type decisions in minutes, not hours.
It’s the exact system I’ve refined over 10+ years across 150+ brands, organizations, events, artists, churches, and athletics. I’ve logged hundreds of hours of type research and packaged it so you can get started in minutes.
Trusted by designers in 11 countries + 38 states.
One-time payment of $49. Free updates.
TypeLab is built for designers and creatives who:
- Care about typography and want to stop losing 45–60 minutes scrolling and second guessing every project.
- Want the benefit of hundreds of hours of font research without doing it all yourself.
- Want their work to feel premium, not just “good enough.”
- Design for brands, events, social, churches, artists, or sports and need a reliable type system they can reuse.
Whether you obsess over micro-details, contrast, and kerning or just know your type and pairings could be better, TypeLab meets you where you are and levels you up.
- Speed: Eliminates your font scroll so you move from idea to locked-in direction insanely fast.
- Quality: Levels up your work in minutes with curated fonts and pairings that lift the whole design.
- Confidence: Builds unshakeable confidence so you are not guessing whether your type looks pro. It does.
- Taste: Sharpens your eye through real projects you can study, copy, and apply.
✅ Short-term - Use it on 1 project and it should already have paid for itself.
✅ Long-term - The return is priceless when you factor in elevated speed, quality, confidence, and taste.
- Font Index (125+ fonts): Organized for fast decisions with clear categories, free/trial markets, and source links.
- Pairing System + Mini Course: 30 proven combos + a simple 5-step pairing framework so you can build your own confident combos.
- Visual Application Archive: 20+ annotated real-world examples showing how fonts work in real layouts.
- Type Source Directory: 25+ places I actually go when I'm building a font library for myself and making type choices for a client.
- Editable Manuals (Sheets + Excel): Filter, sort, and build your own custom type sheet on top of TypeLab.
💡 TypeLab is a systems + resource + education toolkit. It does not include font files. Use the Index links to purchase or download trials from each foundry.
- Illustrator Font Testing Script: Swap and test hundreds of fonts in seconds inside one Illustrator file. Total game changer.
- 125-Font .ai File: All fonts from the index, pre-dropped into one Illustrator file and organized by category to test them instantly.
If I built this as a custom typography system for a client, it would easily be $1,000+ in strategy, research, and build time.
Your price here: $49 one-time.

Rated ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ by designers who use it in real projects every week:
❓ What level of designer is this for?
✅ If you can open a PDF and change fonts, you’re good. Newer designers use it to skip years of trial-and-error, and experienced designers use it as a faster, more organized system for decisions they already care about.
❓ Do I have to go buy all the fonts to use this?
✅ Nope. About 58% of the fonts in the index are free or have trial versions. Start with those and the ones you already own. The index shows what I use, where to get them, and what they cost, but you don’t need every font in the list for TypeLab to be useful.
❓ What software do I need?
✅ You can use the core toolkit with any design software. The main pieces are PDFs, Google Sheets, and Excel; the Illustrator script and .ai file are bonus tools for Adobe Illustrator.
❓ What does the font testing script do?
✅ The Illustrator Font Testing Script lets you swap through tons of fonts on a single layout in seconds. Instead of manually changing fonts over and over, you click once and quickly audition options from your library or from the index.
❓ What if I already have fonts I love?
✅ Great. Drop your favorites into the framework, test them with the script, and use the pairing psychology + examples to push them further. TypeLab layers on top of your current library.
❓ Does TypeLab include the actual font files?
✅ Nope. TypeLab gives you a curated index, categories, and direct links to download trials or buy licenses from each foundry, so everything stays legal and supports the type designers.
No fluff. Just a type toolkit you'll actually use.
This is the system I wish I had years earlier as a working designer.
