Generate wide, cut hard. The machine writes names, draws wordmarks, sets palettes, type and voice by the dozen. A designer throws out nearly all of it. The client picks from the few that survive and leaves with a brand home they keep.
Clients never touch the working surfaces, and designers never chase a client for information — intake collects it, and the human part stays judgment. That split is the whole product.
It runs on a Mexican cost base, which is the only reason the numbers work: five hours of a US studio costs more than a finished brand here.
How to use it
It is a service rather than a download: a designer drives the engine and you are handed the finished brand.
While building it
I was discussing something with Claude, about lavaliers, and got this answer, which feels quite close to the thinking that permeates Branding Oracle.
