Introducing Brandpad Starter — The $0 plan.

We’re very excited to officially introduce Brandpad Starter today; a plan tailor-made for brands who are looking to digitise, but want to do so without additional cost. In short, Brandpad Starter is a $0 option for companies and teams to bring their brand identity, and its assets to a digital home.

Now seems like a good time.

Ever since we launched Brandpad, we had a clear vision to make the new format for visual identities. We’re doing this by providing a fully customisable platform for design studios and their clients to efficiently handle brand identities and portfolios in the cloud. Up until now, we’ve focused a lot on providing design agencies with a solution that makes it fast to streamline their delivery processes and easy to keep large brand portfolios updated across a team and list of partners. All this while giving designers a way of bringing clients into the platform in a way that offers value to them (and not just the system). As a result, we’re proud to have thousands of the most ambitious brands and design studios around the globe use Brandpad today.

For everyone.

But not everyone is a world-famous design agency or governmentally-backed institution. In fact, ambitious brands don’t always belong to big companies at all. Digitising your brand platform and streamlining the way your team and partners stay on brand, even if you’re suddenly doing so remotely, should be an option for everyone in 2020.

Start at $0.

This is where the Brandpad Starter plan comes in, giving everyone the option of bringing their brand to the cloud, free of charge. With Starter, you get access to all Brandpad brand features. You’ll be able to create a completely custom looking brand platform that’s unique to your visual identity. It’s easily accessed (by anyone you want) and automatically synced for everyone when updated. When launched, it can be used by unlimited brand users — be it your internal team or external partners — and you’ll have unlimited bandwidth and GBs on us. Or, “no-worries hosting,” as we call it.

What’s the catch? Well, there’s only one editor and one brand allowed. No team members and no collaborators are available on this plan. If you want to use Brandpad to run a more efficient design agency, like the great people over at Ueno, IDEO, Character, Another, SDG, Uppercase, Designit, Matchstic, BOND, ANTI and hundreds more are doing, we have other, valuable plans and models for you. If you want to really gather your company around more fail-safe brand processes, like the awesome people at MoMA, IKEA, LEGO, TAO Group, Berkeley and thousands more are doing in Brandpad, we’ll also ask you to contribute to our continuous product development and support with a paid plan. Luckily for you, you can try now and decide on that later.

Welcome.

The plan is available from today, and if you want to dip your toe in the water, you can sign up through our website. If you want to learn more, talk to us through the chat widget or contact us at hi@brandpad.io. Welcome, we’re excited to have you.

Sincerely,

The Brandpad Team.
