# Context.dev Brand API > Context.dev, formerly brand.dev, returns a company's logos, colours and images from its domain, and its Styleguide reads type and font files. From $20 a month. Context.dev was called brand.dev until March 2026. It describes itself as a web data API for scraping, and its brand features are part of that: Brand returns a company's logos, colours, description and images; Styleguide reads a website's colours, typography, spacing and component styles, with font files where it can resolve them; Logo Link serves a logo image from a URL. It suits products that need more of a company's look than a logo, such as a design tool that themes itself to a customer's website. | | | | --- | --- | | Job | [One-off lookups](https://brandapis.com/guides/which-brand-api#one-off-lookups) | | Logos | Yes | | Colours | Yes | | Fonts | Yes | | Guidance | No | | Files | Partly | | You send | A domain, name, work email, ticker or page URL | | Authentication | API key; a public client ID for Logo Link | | Free tier | 1,000 credits a month | | Paid from | $20 a month (Developer) | | MCP server | Yes | | Checked | 2026-11-10 | ## What does Context.dev return? - **Logos:** Brand returns logos typed as icon or logo, marked for light mode, dark mode or as having their own background, with their resolution; an SVG variant is listed ahead of a similar raster one. Logo Link returns a near-square icon (the default) or a wordmark as an image, and a generated monogram when no logo is found. - **Colours:** Brand returns colours as hex, with a name and whether each came from the website's theme or the logo's pixels. - **Fonts:** Styleguide returns the website's typography and, where it can resolve them, font file URLs; a missing URL can mean the font couldn't be resolved. - **Guidance:** No voice or usage rules; Brand returns a description and slogan. - **Files:** Brand returns backdrop images, with their colours and resolution. ## How is it billed? - One credit balance covers every Context.dev API; a Brand lookup costs 10 credits and a Styleguide 10. - Brand autocomplete costs 1 credit on Free and Developer, and is free on Pro, Growth and Scale. - A Brand lookup that finds nothing (400 NOT_FOUND) is not charged. - Past the monthly allowance, Auto-Topup buys 1,000-credit blocks: $3.00 on Developer, $2.00 on Pro, $1.50 on Growth, $1.00 on Scale, $0.75 on Scale 2.5M. - Logo Link has its own quota and does not use API credits. ## What are the limits? Concurrent requests: 2 on Free, 10 on Developer, 100 on Pro, 250 on Growth, 500 on Scale; new Free organisations are also limited to 10 requests a minute. ## What do the terms require? - Logo Link images are for direct embedding: don't download, store or rehost them. Caching as the response headers direct is allowed. - API access does not grant a licence to reuse third-party material such as logos; confirm you have permission to store, display or redistribute it. - Check a font's licence before shipping font files from Styleguide in your application. ## Who keeps it current? - Brand reuses cached data up to maxAgeMs, three months by default; maxAgeMs of 0 forces a fresh retrieval. - Corrections and rebrands can be submitted at context.dev/update. ## How do you call it? ``` curl https://api.context.dev/v1/brand/retrieve --request POST --header "Authorization: Bearer $CONTEXT_DEV_API_KEY" --header "Content-Type: application/json" --data '{"type": "by_domain", "domain": "stripe.com"}' ``` ## When should you use something else? - **For logos alone**, [Logo.dev](https://brandapis.com/directory/logo-dev) or [Brandfetch](https://brandapis.com/directory/brandfetch) cost less per logo. See [Logo.dev vs Context.dev](https://brandapis.com/compare/logo-dev-vs-context-dev). - **For a brand's rules**, Styleguide gives you the styles a website uses, not the rules behind them, and Context.dev's own docs say to review the values before using them as a design system. See [agentic brand work](https://brandapis.com/guides/which-brand-api#agentic-brand-work). - **For fonts you will ship**, check each font's licence first, as Context.dev's docs also say. ## Sources - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) - (checked 2026-11-10) --- Source: https://brandapis.com/directory/context-dev Last updated: 2026-11-10 Published by The Brand API Register.
