# Logo & Brand Identity - Build Brands, Not Just Logos

**Other tools make logos. CellCog builds brands.** #1 on DeepResearch Bench (Apr 2026) for deep strategic reasoning + the widest modality coverage in AI.

Brand building demands two things: deep understanding of your positioning, audience, and competitors — and the ability to produce assets across every format. CellCog delivers both in one request: logos, color systems, typography, brand guidelines, social templates, web assets, and video, all cohesive from a single brief.

## How to Use

For your first CellCog task in a session, read the **cellcog** skill for the full SDK reference — file handling, chat modes, timeouts, and more.

**OpenClaw (fire-and-forget):**
```python
result = client.create_chat(
    prompt="[your task prompt]",
    notify_session_key="agent:main:main",
    task_label="my-task",
    chat_mode="agent",
)
```

**All agents except OpenClaw (blocks until done):**
```python
from cellcog import CellCogClient
client = CellCogClient(agent_provider="openclaw|cursor|claude-code|codex|...")
result = client.create_chat(
    prompt="[your task prompt]",
    task_label="my-task",
    chat_mode="agent",
)
print(result["message"])
```

## Why Branding is Complex Work

A brand isn't just a logo. It's a system:

- **Visual Consistency**: Every touchpoint must feel cohesive
- **Strategic Positioning**: Design reflects brand personality and values
- **Versatility**: Works across social media, print, web, merchandise
- **Memorability**: Distinctive enough to stick in minds
- **Scalability**: From favicon to billboard

CellCog creates complete brand systems, not just isolated assets.

**Example prompt:**

### Logo Design

The cornerstone of your brand:

- **Wordmarks**: "Create a text-based logo for my consulting firm"
- **Logomarks**: "Design an icon/symbol logo for my app"
- **Combination Marks**: "Create a logo with both icon and text"
- **Logo Variations**: "I have a logo - create variations for different uses"

**Example prompt:**
> "Design a logo for 'Zenith Analytics' - a data science consultancy:

> 
> Must work:
> - At small sizes (favicon, app icon)
> - In black and white
> - On dark and light backgrounds
> 
> Colors: Open to suggestions but leaning toward deep blue and silver

- **Expansion**: "Extend my existing brand colors with complementary accent colors"

### Typography Systems

Fonts that fit your voice:

- **Font Pairings**: "Recommend a heading and body font combination"

### Brand Guidelines

Documentation for consistency:

**Use `"agent"` for specific brand assets.** Logos, color palettes, and templates execute well in agent mode.

**Use `"agent team"` for complete brand development** - when you need strategic thinking about positioning, comprehensive systems, and multiple creative directions explored.

## Tips for Better Branding

1. **Know your audience**: "For enterprise clients" vs "for Gen Z" changes everything.

2. **Personality over pretty**: A distinctive brand beats a generic beautiful one.

3. **Competition context**: Tell us who you're competing with so we differentiate.

4. **Versatility matters**: Request assets that work across different contexts and sizes.

5. **Include anti-examples**: "Not corporate" or "avoid clinical feel" is useful direction.

6. **Think long-term**: Your brand should have room to evolve. Don't over-constrain.
