Frequently Asked Questions

Is the free logo from Brandmark usable for my real business?+
Honestly, no. The free download is low-resolution and has a large watermark. It's only useful for mocking up an idea. For any commercial use, you must purchase a plan to get the clean, high-res files.
Can I edit my logo after I buy it?+
Only if you purchase the $175 Enterprise plan, which allows unlimited revisions. With the $25 or $65 packages, what you download is final. My advice is to be 100% happy with your preview before purchasing.
How unique is the logo Brandmark creates?+
It's generated uniquely for you, but it uses a library of common icons and styles. While you likely won't find an exact duplicate, it may share similarities with other AI-generated logos. For absolute uniqueness, a human designer is still the gold standard.
What file formats do I get with the paid plans?+
You get PNG (transparent background), SVG (vector for scaling), and PDF. The Brand Kit also includes JPGs and the social media kit. The SVG file is the most important for professional use.
Is Brandmark good for an established business rebrand?+
In my experience, it's best for new brands. Its strength is creation from scratch. For a rebrand, you'd be ignoring existing equity. It's a better fit for startups, side projects, or small businesses launching their first identity.
