What it costs, against the alternatives

Three years

The same seventeen documents, four ways of getting them. The row that matters is the third one.

About those figures. The $50 a month and the $45 a document are assumptions, put in so the sum can be worked through — they are not quoted prices for any particular product, and we have not named one. Put your own numbers in and the shape of the table stays the same. Foresight Specbook is $149 with the code FOUNDING for the first hundred licences, and $299 after that. Either way it is paid once.

Quick answers

Before you buy.

The questions people ask most. Everything else is in the full FAQ.

Does it work on a Mac?

Not yet. Foresight Specbook runs on Windows 10 and 11. If you work on a Mac, tell us: it moves the date.

Does it need the internet?

Once, to start the trial or activate your key, and about once a month after that to check the licence. Typing, saving, printing and every typeface work offline.

What if I change computers?

Open Preferences › Licence › Deactivate on the old computer, then activate on the new one. Foresight Specbook covers 2 computers, Studio covers 5.

Can I get a refund?

Because every feature can be tried free for 7 days first, licences are not refunded once a key has been issued, except for a duplicate purchase or an app that will not run on a supported Windows computer.

Buying a website template. $250, paid once. One house style per licence, used on as many of your own sites as you like. You choose the style and give us your studio name on the order form, then pay through Payhip.

How a template arrives. Each copy is built with your studio name set into it, so it is sent within one working day rather than downloaded on the spot. Every typeface is a Google Font under the Open Font License — yours to bundle, self-host or leave on the CDN, on client work included.

Prices are in US dollars and shown before any tax your country adds at checkout.
