Brand1 builds brand management software for brand owners: tools that keep a brand consistent across every team, partner and AI tool long after the project ends.

Shown as a specimen walk-through
How our studio works: people author the brand, AI multiplies it, a named designer signs it off.
Runs every studio project · not sold
A proper brand kit for small firms, with a tier reviewed by our designers.
Coming 2028
Why we build tools
Guidelines go out of date. People change jobs. AI makes more work in a week than a team once made in a year. Our brand consistency tools keep every piece of it pointing the same way, and a named designer still signs off the work that matters.
Client zero: Brand1
Our own brand lives in Brand Source too. It's open to read: logo, colour, type, voice and the rules we hold ourselves to.
Brand Source is the brand book software at the centre: one source of truth for logo, colour, type, voice, assets and rules. Brand Check scores new work against it. Studio OS, our creative production system, makes films and campaigns from it. AI tools and developers connect to it directly (see For developers).
Every tool starts from a brand that people authored. See the brand identity practice and brand governance and Brand Source service for the studio work behind them.
Brand1, a brand and creative studio, makes four tools. Brand Source holds a brand in one living place. Brand Check scores work against it out of 100. Studio OS is the AI creative production system the studio runs on, with human sign-off. Brand1 Kit, a brand kit for small businesses, is planned for 2028.
Brand management software keeps a brand's logo, colour, type, voice, assets and rules in one shared place, so every team, partner and tool works from the same version. Good brand management software also records who approved each change and checks new work against the rules, instead of leaving guidelines in a PDF nobody opens.
Brand Source is Brand1's digital brand guidelines platform. It holds eight layers of a brand, from the core idea and voice to assets, rules and evidence, in one versioned place. People read it, AI tools connect to it directly, and Brand Check holds new work to it. It is included in every Identity Programme.
Not yet as self-serve software. Brand Source comes with every Identity Programme, and Brand Check runs inside it and inside the free Brand Health Scan. Studio OS is not sold; clients get what it makes. Brand Source licences open in 2027. Cost is scope-dependent, so request the price sheet for current terms.
