Element AI
Visual Identity System

Element AI was a start-up operating in the research and AI space, but as the company had grown and evolved, its visual identity no longer reflected its offerings or resonated with its employees or target audience. Additionally, Element AI did not have brand guidelines or standardized key visuals to help its stakeholders and partners communicate consistently about key subjects, resulting in a lack of alignment for the brand.

Opportunity

We saw an opportunity to redefine Element AI's visual territory and position it as a leader in the AI ecosystem. Our goal was to elevate the representation of its research, technology and products in an exciting and accurate way.

Solution

Working closely with the executive team, we were inspired by the idea that human and AI collaboration could unlock unprecedented potential, rather than replace people. We created the tagline 'Work smarter, together' to bring this belief to life, and developed a new visual identity and brand guidelines, as well as image libraries that could be used at scale for any communication initiative.

Results

We launched the new brand and visual assets in stages and saw great adoption both internally and externally. The company was acquired shortly after the rebrand for hundreds of millions of dollars.
