    You may be asking yourself – what exactly is Magic as a Service™? Put simply, we’re a team building products, tools, and systems we wish existed to share them with the world.

    While it’s still early, Magic as a Service™ is something we’ve been thinking, dreaming of and constructing in our minds for a long time. Building this platform (ecosystem) was the first step. Now, we can focus on the journey ahead and share what’s next. Here’s a quick recap of our journey so far...

    Platform Launch

    Since the brand inception in 2022, we have been in research & development mode to create the building blocks of our products and services ecosystem. This platform is the first step of our public launch.


    Moving Forwards

    Our focus in 2025 will be on releasing the first versions of our products and collaborating with clients on development projects – aka building things. We’ll work closely with our sister company, International Magic, which will continue to lead the creative direction, design and world-building services.


    Introducing Magic as a Service™ Products:

    Mirror Ui

    Mirror Ui is an enterprise design system for brands to create unique and authentic interfaces at scale.

    Our focus in 2025 will be:

    • Working with enterprise clients to create custom design systems for their brands.
    • Evolving Mirror Ui to become an open-source and consumer product.

    Dream Type

    Our Type Foundry offering a dynamic range of typefaces on simple terms. The focus will be on:

    • A steady rollout of new typefaces offering a unique set of features crafted with precision.
    • A logical license model based on our previous experiences of licensing fonts for client projects.

    Vue Equipment

    A collection of plugins and composables for building modern web applications. On the horizon, we have:

    • Our first stable release, in Q1 2025, includes tools such as a streaming-ready video player, a draggable drawer, a cmd+k menu, and more.
    • Comprehensive documentation for seamless integration.
    • Solutions for real-world needs as they arise.

    As our catalogue grows, we hope there’s something for everyone. We will also share more about our team, process and workflows as we go. Our version of working out loud. The future will also be about finding our community and developing a network of kindred spirits. Get in touch if that sounds like you.
