    Brief history

    Typeface was founded in 2022 by Abhay Parasnis, the former Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Adobe. The company emerged from stealth mode in February 2023 with a $65 million funding round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, Google Ventures, M12 (Microsoft’s Venture Fund), and other investors. Its mission was to provide enterprises with a secure and brand-aligned generative AI solution, addressing common concerns around brand consistency and data privacy. In June 2023, just four months after launching, Typeface announced a Series B funding round of $100 million, led by Salesforce Ventures, which elevated its valuation to $1 billion and solidified its position as a key player in the enterprise generative AI space.
