Sans Superellipse Otbuv 5 is a regular weight, normal width, low contrast, upright, tall x-height, monospaced font visually similar to 'Bluset Now Mono' by Elsner+Flake and 'TT Autonomous' by TypeType (names referenced only for comparison).

A monospaced, sans design built from squared-off strokes with generously rounded corners, giving many forms a rounded-rectangle (superellipse) feel. Curves stay taut and geometric, while terminals tend to be flat or softly blunted rather than tapered. Counters are compact and rectangular, producing a steady, engineered rhythm and consistent texture in lines of text. The numerals and punctuation follow the same boxy logic, and the zero is distinctly slashed for unambiguous reading.
Well-suited to coding environments, terminal-style interfaces, and any setting where strict character alignment matters, such as tables, logs, and configuration readouts. It also works effectively for compact UI labels and technical documentation where legibility and consistent rhythm are priorities.
The overall tone is pragmatic and technical, with a subtle retro-computing flavor. Its squared geometry and uniform spacing feel deliberate and workmanlike, prioritizing clarity and control over expressiveness.
The design appears intended for high-clarity, monospaced reading in technical contexts, combining a rigid grid structure with rounded corners to keep the texture friendly while staying precise and unambiguous.
The font maintains a consistent, grid-friendly silhouette across uppercase, lowercase, and figures. Wide internal rounding prevents forms from feeling harsh despite the strongly rectilinear construction, and the slashed zero improves differentiation in data-heavy contexts.
