Brand Essence
The most
human
AI
company in the world.
We do not start with hype. We start with the work itself. We look at how people actually operate, where friction happens, and what would make technology genuinely useful. From there, we build solutions that make sense in context and can live in real operations.
Logo
This is the preferred and default logo. It should be used whenever space allows and whenever the full brand name needs to appear clearly.
Use the primary logo for:
- website
- presentations
- proposals
- case material
- most branded surfaces
- social content where space allows
This should always be the first choice. And should be - if possible - placed bottom left.
This version is used when the primary logo does not fit or when a more compact expression is needed.
Use the secondary logo for:
- small digital placements
- profile images
- favicons
- compact layouts
- situations where the full logo becomes too small to read
Use this only when the primary logo is not practical.
The wordmark can be used in selected cases where the symbol-led versions are not suitable.
Use the wordmark only for:
- narrow formats
- specific layout systems
- branded compositions where the full name needs emphasis
- approved applications where the symbol would create imbalance
This is not the default logo and should be used selectively.
When choosing a logo, always follow this order:
- Primary logo: BCT symbol + wordmark
- Secondary logo: BCT symbol only
- Wordmark only, if the first two are not suitable If a dark background is used, switch to the inverted version of the same logo.
When in doubt, use the full primary logo. Only move to the simpler versions when space, readability, or format requires it. The goal is not to maximise variation.
The goal is to use the most complete and recognisable version possible in each situation.
Avoid the following:
- adding drop shadows
- applying outlines
- changing colours
- distorting the shape
- placing the logo on busy backgrounds without enough contrast
- using low-quality exports recreating the logo manually

How we do it in practice
Color Palette
Color Usage Distribution
Use accent colours to guide attention, not to fill space. When everything is highlighted, nothing is highlighted. Use Signal Lime for the single most important data point or takeaway.

Use gradients to create mood and dimension, not decoration for its own sake.
Typography
Google Sans
Used for headlines, body copy, UI, website, presentations, and sales material. Available free via Google Fonts - easy for everyone to install and use. The primary typeface should feel clean, modern, readable, and confident.
Yuji Boku
Used very sparingly for single-word emphasis, conceptual highlights, and special brand moments — such as the word human where there is a clear design reason. This typeface is an accent, not a system font. Available free via Google Fonts.
