About Okay
“What if Gill Kayo didn’t look so dumb?” 🤔 Okay began as an attempt to reconsider the stupidity of Kayo. But it turns out Kayo’s goofy design is what makes it such a great typeface. Trying to normalize it was, ironically, a dumb idea itself. Like a design lobotomy. But here we are…
Okay is an extra-bold, kinda-humanist display sans. Instead of the over-the-top slapstick look of Kayo, Okay has a dry, sarcastic wit. More Richard Ayoade than Benny Hill, if that makes any sense. Though it only comes in one weight, bold af, Okay has multiple widths and an alternate set of shorter extenders to make it a versatile little typeface for setting punchy and warm headlines.
Okay recieved awards from Communication Arts and The Society of Typographic Arts. It was also included in Typographica’s Fontiest Fonts of 2019.

Language Support
Okay supports:
Determining which languages a font supports is complicated. This data is not comprehensive and is likely not 100% accurate. I welcome any corrections, additions, or questions: ok@yty.pe
This list of supported languages comes from Apple’s Font Book. The character information for each language comes from Unicode's Common Locale Data Repository. I last updated it on November 6, 2023. Additional data comes from a variety of sources which are included under “References”.
Some of this data uses OpenType combining accents, may not be fully supported in every browser (looking at you, Safari). The uppercase characters are generated using Javascript’s toLocaleUpperCase() method, which isn’t foolproof either.
Some Okay Type fonts are listed as supporting a language but may not include all of the Auxiliary Characters (e.g.: the Ɑ and ɑ in Galician). Reach out if these are something you really need.
