A self-development platform blending AI, text-to-speech, and psychoacoustics into personalized audio experiences. The product was already built. What they needed was a brand identity to help establish who they were.

01 Introduction

IntentOne came to me with a working product and no brand: a platform already built on AI, text-to-speech, and psychoacoustics, designed to give people a genuinely new kind of self-development experience, but still nameless in every visual sense. There was a questionnaire, an engine, a real idea people could use. There just wasn't a logo, a color palette, or anything that said who they were.

My job was to build that identity: the logo, the visual system, the brand guideline the team could put on top of what they'd already made. Once that groundwork was in place, the engagement grew into an ongoing retainer, and I moved into shaping the look and feel of the website itself, the place where the product would finally live.

Round one explored two very different personalities: a clean geometric wordmark with a halo built into the second "o," and a looser, hand-drawn version paired with a flame mark. The halo read as an ear, a target, and a loop all at once, and it became the clear direction from there.

Main difference from 1.A is the "i"

With a direction chosen, the work moved from concept to system. The halo sharpened into a clean arc where "intent" and "One" fuse into a single icon, with the accent color doing double duty as the dot on the "i" and the ring around the "o." IntentOne needed a palette that felt energetic and technological without narrowing who it spoke to, so acid green carries the identity and coral steps in where green doesn't fit.

A near-black purple carries the brand's weight, with acid green standing in for energy and clarity of thought. Coral, light purple, and a mid-tone purple round out a secondary palette for illustration and content categories.

Once the identity was locked, the retainer work began: taking the system from a logo file into a full marketing site. I designed several key pages to showcase how the brand could look in practice, bringing the logo, color, and type system to life across a real product experience.

The same brand system carries into social: a repeating "i" watermark, the deep-purple field, and green reserved for facts and calls to action, keeping every post instantly recognizable as IntentOne no matter the topic.
