Precise Sans™ is the sleek digital font for your digital life. This modern family will eventually consist of ten fine-tuned weights (plus two italics) to color exactly as many pixels as needed. The squarish shapes are clearly optimized for screen rendering but the design’s uniquely human details add personality & warmth to the letters and your typesetting – be it in apps, websites, or print.

Fine-tuned for peak performance
The origin of Precise Sans was a custom font we created for digital displays of one of Europe’s major car manufacturers. It was designed pixel-perfectly for their specific system to be super legible, clean, and distinctive. This new and improved version has been completely redrawn without the constraints and limitations imposed by the car’s proprietary software. The result is an equally meticulous design but with more refinements, details, features, and extras.
Clean & modern
Precise Sans brings to mind adjectives like clean, modern, technical, futuristic, etc… While this was the initial direction, we didn’t want to push the design into becoming heartless, geometric, or mechanical. The overall look and feel is definitely techie, but also has warmth thanks to many small details & customized features.
10 Weights!
The full Precise Sans family will soon come with 30 .OTF fonts: ten weights in upright, italics, and backslanted italics. This will allow for numerous ways to set up typographic hierarchies and differentiate text. For now, the two initial – Extra Light & Extra Bold – are themselves extremely useful and fun to combine. (You will of course get all 30 fonts, plus a variable version if you license these Beta fonts at any stage.) Stay tuned for more!
