Ontology
Operational advantage
Software built for the most consequential decisions.
Alliance pairs a neutral grotesque skeleton with subtly humanist details.
At text sizes the No.1 cut stays open and legible, holding its rhythm across long passages of running copy without calling attention to itself.
Set at fourteen pixels the face remains crisp — tight spacing, tall x-height and even color make it a quiet workhorse for captions, labels and interface chrome.
Palantir builds software that empowers organizations to effectively integrate their data, decisions, and operations. From the front line to the executive suite, the platform connects people to the information they need — the moment they need it. Alliance No.1 carries this running text: neutral enough to disappear, distinctive enough to feel engineered.
The companion display cut tightens the spacing and sharpens the terminals. Reserved for headlines, pull quotes, and the emphatic moments where a page needs to raise its voice — it is the same voice, standing a little closer and speaking a little louder.

The free dafont release ships the Regular weight only. Its subtly widening forms and strong black/white contrast keep it legible from captions up to large display sizes — a solid stand-in when Alliance is out of budget.
