What problem does it solve?

Turning brand guidelines into a consistent, structured Quarto _brand.yml file is slow and error-prone, especially when colors and fonts need verification and standardization.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Extract brand details from multiple inputs including a website URL, uploaded brand guidelines (PDF/images/docs), a plain-text brand description, or an existing _brand.yml to refine.
  • Research and resolve unknowns by using web search to verify hex values and to map proprietary/unknown fonts to close Google Fonts substitutes when needed.

Quick Start
