Typerium
What is Typerium?
We're developing an intuitive design software, social media network, and marketplace based platform that will protect content creators intellectual property, and empower them to create great content using the power of smart contracts on the blockchain.
What does Typerium provide?
Typerium is needed to protect the intellectual property of content creators, to facilitate a cost-effective and global creative currency, and to create a thriving decentralised marketplace for buying and selling digital content.
Trust and Transparency
Building trust in online commerce is hard. Creative content makers cannot reach their audiences easily and the big marketplaces don’t make information available to makers and buyers. Typerium brings them transparency and makes it more efficient and rewarding for makers and buyers to connect.
The creative content application market is underdeveloped
Apps that connect creative content and users are one of the fastest-growing markets. Yet, no easy way exists to link creators with users. Type Protocol is the app that finally brings them together. With the app, creators can make high-end content that can be used on any platform, linking makers to users and everyone to rewards.
Traditional contracts and licensing are slow and expensive
Typerium embraces Ethereum’s smart contract technology to automate all of the complex processes that normally take lawyers, high fees and large amounts of time to get done. Licensing and usage rights are built into Typerium’s process. The app also makes it easier to track intellectual property and piracy.
Normal payment processing is complex,expensive and slow
Typerium leverages blockchain technology, which can make payment times much faster than traditional services like PayPal and credit cards. Big marketplaces create additional costs, but the Typerium environment removes big-marketplace overheads from transactions.
Inability to capitilise on the growing blockchain economy
Typerium provides a pathway for creative content makers and users of creative content to capitalise on the blockchain economy. It is a marriage of creativity and commerce that rewards makers, users and all participants in the Typerium environment.

Summary
Strengths
- Team with relevant background regarding the problem this project aims to solve
- Clear roadmap
- Sizable market potential
Potential concerns
- Lack of crypto experience in team
- Too small soft cap
- Risk of not achieving a critical mass of users and merchants in the ecosystem
The team has know-how and passion to solve the specific problem (lack of IPR for content creators) they have first-hand experience on due to their background, but they are mainly novices in crypto space. VC backed company behind the project. Max raise amount is suited to roadmap plan, min amount not so much. Fund allocation fully transparent. Token allocation balance between company and community standard.
The ecosystem of the project needs a critical mass of users before the business model is valid for both merchants and consumers. Product is not yet an MVP, and takes considerable time to be completed after the token sale to alpha phase. The market potential is mass market level, and product appeal is good. Well written WP with medium coverage of necessary issues. Medium transparency, readable but does take some time. Technology presentation missing some information and ecosystem growth was modeled in a non-professional way. Business plan could have been better thought out.
Reaching only soft cap will definitely not allow the project to be taken into beta phase – reaching collected amount of money in USD range at least within 8 figures would allow completion of roadmap in a realistic way. Roadmap otherwise well thought out and clearly presented. Vision is industry-changing and long-term, all steps concrete. Relationships between the team and world’s leading brands have been established in previous ventures, current status of actual partnership network is unclear.
Solid following on multiple channels, most likely due to airdrop competition. Small amount of hype in Whitepaper and marketing materials, none glaring flaws.
