Methodology
How the numbers were counted
- Source: tools connected in Type.com workspaces, read from the production database on November 11, 2026. Only connections that are currently connected count.
- Paying workspaces: the 50 workspaces on an active paid Type.com plan, including any with no tools connected. Free program and test accounts are not counted.
- Multi-tool workspaces: the 87 workspaces with 3 or more distinct tools connected, out of 288 with at least one. This cohort is chosen by how many tools a workspace connects, so its shares run higher; it is reported as a comparison, not the headline.
- Excluded: Type.com's own workspace, internal test and demo workspaces, workspaces used only by Type.com employees, and workspaces banned for abuse.
- Gmail and Google Calendar connect per person, so a workspace counts when at least one member has linked a mailbox. Slack and Google Drive are installed once for the whole workspace.
- Counting: each workspace counts once per tool, even with several accounts or both versions of a connector (for example, two Google Drive connectors). Many workspaces have a single member, so this counts workspaces, not people.
- Rounding: shares are rounded to the nearest whole percent. Tools connected by fewer than 5 paying workspaces are not listed. No workspace or company is named.
