Build a launch-ready brand, straight from your desktop

Brand Peel is a local-first AI brand strategist for your desktop. Talk through positioning, test palettes, prototype on-brand interfaces, and export shippable Tailwind v4 tokens and Markdown brand books. It gives founders and product teams a calmer path from rough idea to clear positioning, usable colors, and a shareable brand system without losing control of the process. In practice, it turns fuzzy product thinking into structured decisions you can review, change, and export without chasing the same ideas through a dozen disconnected tools.

01 The problem

The brand kit, without the tab pile.

I once had four tabs open just to pick a palette, Docs for copy, a picker for colors, ChatGPT for taglines, Figma to see if it worked. Brand Peel puts strategy, colors and code variables in one desktop app instead, so you can move from rough concept to real brand direction without bouncing between tools and losing context. You can test a direction, capture the rationale, and keep every decision in one place rather than losing the thread across five apps.

Left: brand work spread across a Google Doc, palette sites, a chat assistant, and Figma. Right: the same work inside Brand Peel.

MISSION STATEMENT

We want to help founders build brands without hiring an agency. AI asks questions, spits out guidelines, exports colors for code. Something like that? (too long, cut to one sentence)

BRAND TONALITY / VOICE

Innovative. Modern. Disruptive. AI-powered. (this could be any startup, rewrite)

COLOR PALETTE IDEAS

Primary: #0070f3 (or maybe #111? #ff0055?)
Secondary: #f5a623 (does this contrast well?)
Accent: #00dfd8 (need to check WCAG compliance, seems light)

Stuck on Page 1
Agency Quote

"$12,500 and 4 weeks delivery. Minimum scope."

Contrast Issue

Is the primary text legible on yellow? Need a checker.

Developer Handoff

Manually copying colors into Tailwind config files. Typo risk.

02 How it feels

Guided conversation builds your brand

You don't stare at a blank brief. Talk through what you're building, who it's for, and why it matters. The app drafts strategy, pulls palettes, and shapes tokens as you go, turning a loose idea into a practical brand foundation you can refine, review, and export. It helps you decide what matters before you spend hours polishing a direction that does not fit. The conversation becomes a working brand brief, with the decisions visible, editable, and easy to carry forward.

03 Local-first

Your project files stay on your machine.

Everything you make, projects, chat history, themes, logos, Sandbox sessions, generated files, lives locally. When you ask for AI help, only the prompt and needed context leave over an encrypted connection. We don't train on your content. Ever. That means your product strategy, copy drafts, and visual experiments stay under your control instead of being stored in a shared service layer you cannot inspect later.

04 What's inside

From idea to production code

No PDF graveyard. You get Markdown, tokens and assets in formats your repo actually eats, including live docs, exportable palettes, and the visual artifacts you can use without flattening your process into a spreadsheet of decisions.
  • AI brand strategist

    Talk like you would to a collaborator. It drafts positioning and voice you can push back on and lock in.

  • Live Markdown docs

    Your brand book compiles as you chat. Clean Markdown, ready to paste into your README or codebase.

  • Reviewable revisions

    Every AI edit waits for review with a diff against the last version. Accept it, reject it back, or edit the text yourself first.

  • Developer ready theme

    Your palette becomes Tailwind v4 CSS variables plus structured JSON. Paste it and it just works.

  • One-click design tokens

    Copy colors as OKLCH, HSL, RGB or hex in one click. No eyedropper hunt, no manual typos.

  • Custom logo directions

    One request, four logo directions, each with its own rationale. Render the ones you like as proper square logos.

  • Design Sandbox

    Turn brand context into live websites, emails, PDFs, app screens, terminal UIs or 3D scenes. Preview, tweak, export the source.

  • Visual asset generator

    Standalone visuals and mockups in five aspect ratios, up to 4K. Nano Banana for quick drafts, Nano Banana Pro when you want it polished.

  • Focused workspace

    Strategy, voice, palettes, logos, prototypes and exports, one desktop window. No more hunting through Drive folders.

05 Workflow

Three steps, one app

The usual branding slog, minus the tab soup. It replaces the scramble of browser tabs, design tools, and copy docs with a single practical workflow that keeps the work close to the product idea and the team decisions behind it.
    01

    Discovery chat

    Describe what you're building, who it's for, and how it should feel. The strategist remembers, so you don't repeat yourself.
    02

    Strategy and visuals

    You get draft mission, values and visual directions. Push back, tweak colors, keep what feels honest.
    03

    Export and build

    Grab Markdown, theme tokens and logos. Sandbox source too, if you prototyped. Drop it straight into your codebase.

08 Why it exists

For builders

Founders and developers who want a brand they can drop straight into a codebase.
I might be biased, but Brand Peel's own branding was built with Brand Peel. If you like what you see here, you'll probably like the app too.
