Monotype Expands Collaboration with Adobe to Bring Hundreds of World’s Most Renowned Fonts to Creative Cloud

Published

on

Addition of Over 750 New Fonts, Including Iconic Typefaces Helvetica, Avenir, and Gotham, Boosts Creativity and Improves Workflows for Adobe Users

WOBURN, Mass., April 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ –Monotype Imaging Inc., a global leader in type design and technology, announced today an exciting extension of its longstanding partnership with Adobe. Hundreds of the most popular, high-quality fonts from the Monotype library and select foundry partners are now integrated into Adobe Creative Cloud and available to subscribers around the world.

With this new integration, Adobe Creative Cloud users now have seamless access to a total of more than 2,800 high-quality fonts from Monotype and its global foundry partners across Adobe Express, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, and many more Adobe applications. Font additions include some of the world’s best loved and most used fonts from the Monotype library, including Helvetica®, Avenir®, Gotham®, Benton Modern™, and FF DIN®, with language support for Arabic, Hindi, and Japanese, among others, enabling users to create designs and documents for the global work environment.

The increased popularity of design platforms, ubiquity of social media, and rise of integrated AI tools are driving a worldwide renaissance in human creativity. Typography — the art and science of font choice — remains at the heart of most creative projects and endeavors. Recent Monotype research reveals that 82% of creatives say choice of font is one of the top three critical decisions in any design project and 85% view choosing a distinctive font as critical to shaping a brand’s identity.

Dan Rhatigan, Director of Inventory Curation at Monotype said, “What we love about this new extension of our long-standing partnership with Adobe is that there are now thousands of fonts from Monotype at the heart of the Creative Cloud workflow. Our goal is to get our fonts and those from our amazing foundry partners in the hands of as many creative professionals possible — right in the space where they design — so we can continue to elevate the world’s design to new heights.”

Govind Balakrishnan, SVP and General Manager, Adobe Express, said, “We’re thrilled to expand our partnership with Monotype by integrating hundreds of additional Monotype fonts into our industry-leading library of over 30,000 fonts that our users can seamlessly access across the full suite of creative tools, including Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe Express. This expansion not only enhances design possibilities for our users but also reinforces our commitment to empowering creativity through exceptional typographic tools.”

The new Monotype font collection will also help improve brand consistency, with the addition of many brands’ top go-to typefaces to Adobe Creative Cloud, leading to more seamless font integration across workflows. Creative teams experience frustration when relied-upon fonts are unavailable in their design environments, taking a toll on workflow, timelines, and budgets. By incorporating these sought-after, heavily-used Monotype fonts directly into Adobe Creative Cloud, creative teams will see a reduction in costly workflow disruptions, creating a better experience for creatives and their clients.

Key benefits of the partnership include:

Faster, more efficient design workflows with fewer missing fonts and instant access to fonts directly in Creative Cloud applicationsSeamless access to some of the world’s most iconic and widely used fonts, enabling consistent, on-brand design at scaleExpanded font collections featuring multilingual, trending, and expressive display fonts to fuel global creativity and differentiationEnhanced language and script support, empowering brands to connect authentically with audiences in every market

Mike Matteo, Chief Typography Officer at Monotype, pointed to the forward-thinking approach. “Our deepened alliance with Adobe reflects a shared commitment to empowering creativity with precision and purpose. Design trends move fast, and businesses can’t afford to lag behind. This partnership ensures Adobe Creative Cloud users have instant access to fonts that define the moment, with quarterly updates to keep them ahead of the curve — maximizing both creative potential and market relevance. These fonts form the foundation of a common core for typographic expression.”

CHAI AI, Backed by CoreWeave and AMD, Hits $80M ARR with talks of $2.4B Valuation

Published

By

PALO ALTO, Calif., April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Following a pivotal 2025 investment from CoreWeave and AMD, CHAI AI has maintained an unstoppable growth trajectory, surpassing $80 million ARR at the close of Q1 2026, propelling the company to an estimated $2.4 billion valuation.

“Millions of people use our social AI platform every day, and our continued growth is a direct reflection of our incredible talent,” said William Beauchamp, founder of CHAI AI. “I moved the company from the UK to Palo Alto in 2022 because it is where I can find talented engineers. Our growth is driven by fast iteration cycles and the hard work of the engineers.”

What is the mission of CHAI AI? People want to create their own AI and share it with others, and they want to discover and interact with AI built by people they follow. Just as social media platforms emerged when video creation and consumption became ubiquitous, social AI platforms are now emerging to meet an equivalent wave of consumer demand for generative AI creation, sharing, and interaction.

What is the growth rate and traction? In the last three consecutive years, CHAI AI has sustained a 3x growth rate with ARR crossing $80 million by the end of Q1 2026 and a projection to surpass $200 million.

What is the valuation of CHAI AI? CHAI AI is estimated to have a valuation of $2.4 billion as of Q1 2026, based on $80 million in ARR and its sustained growth rate.

Who are the major investors in CHAI AI? AMD and CoreWeave are the primary, strategic investors in CHAI AI, bringing its total investment to date to over $55 million.

What is the culture like at CHAI AI? Our fast-growing company is supported by a talented engineering team that thrives on fast iteration cycles and takes on the most challenging problems in the field. CHAI AI operates with a high-bar, high-reward culture where engineers own entire product segments end-to-end, from prototyping to production.

What is the compensation? CHAI AI competes with top-paying companies such as Jane Street, OpenAI, Meta, and Citadel. We pay 100% cash salaries and are known for generous compensation offers, with the option to trade a portion of cash for stock options. The founding team’s background is in quantitative trading, and they have maintained a compensation philosophy consistent with that culture.

How do promotions and performance reviews work? Performance is reviewed on a daily basis, and engineers are expected to work hard and drive impact. At the beginning of each year, there is a performance-based salary increase.

What is the management structure? The structure is flat, with a team of 15 to 20 engineers.

What are the typical working hours? Engineers at CHAI AI typically work from 9 AM to 5 PM during weekdays, as well as Saturday morning.

Is there vacation or PTO? CHAI AI does not have a set number of vacation days on the calendar, but we respect that employees need time to recharge. In practice, most engineers take around 20 days off per year.

Is the role fully in-person in Palo Alto, hybrid, or remote-friendly? All CHAI employees are expected to work in person in Palo Alto. As a startup that moves fast, we want to ensure the team stays in sync.

What’s the onboarding experience like for new engineers? New hires follow a structured 3-month onboarding plan. Each new hire is paired with an experienced hire and ramped up quickly. You will be assigned high-impact tasks from day one, with clear evaluation metrics and direct mentorship from peers.

Award-winning Cortopia Studios launches the first-ever Turtles VR game

STOCKHOLM, April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have been everywhere from New York City to Dimension X, but with the launch of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City, Beyond Frames Entertainment and Cortopia Studios take the iconic heroes into an all-new reality for the very first time: virtual reality.

Watch the full release trailer here: https://youtu.be/TK2PFmvvVf0

Available now on Meta Quest, Steam VR, and Pico for $24.99, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City is a story-based action adventure game that can be enjoyed single-player, or with friends in optional co-operative multiplayer, allowing players to join together and push against the forces of The Foot.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City takes players to a New York City where the Shredder has been defeated and, in the void left behind, warring factions are vying for total control – from Karai, the leader of the Japanese branch of The Foot Clan, to Mashima, a mystic determined to resurrect the ruthless chaos and power that he believes their fallen leader stood for. 

Players will explore the neighborhoods you’ve sworn to protect, square off against classic foes, and chow down on pizza – just like a real Turtle. In Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City, players are in full control of their play style and experience, engaging however they feel their favorite Turtle would – from stealthy attacks to outright berserker action. 

In addition to the base game, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Empire City is available with a Digital Deluxe Edition upgrade for $4.99, featuring four alternate skins for each Turtle (Mirage, Nostalgia, Owari Masks and Red Masks), alongside an in-game digital art book and an in-game browsable soundtrack.
