Looks great, needs a few more options.
I was looking for a souliton for my clients and to assemble their assets/branding in one place. This looked cool, so I picked up a subscription.
It is very bare bones in a lot of ways, while this is nice, it's also what I think will hold this tool back from taking off.
I would love to see more data points, or a place for me to add my own custom fields, fields like Web page, social media accounts, and such for clients. This way, if I have a new designer working with me, I can point them at the guide, and they can grab links and items they need.
Like wise, it would be fantastic to have a more than one logo; most times, I have black, a white, and color and a mix, all these are the logo, just in different colors, why limit us to one logo?
Why not work the tool not just as a reposority for branding items, but a tool to help people make their branding kits. Thinkgs like a color picker that highlights different color combinations, or automatically generate standard Do's and Dont's for logo placement (like a select standard Do not's).
With AI so rampent in tec, why not add in a basic text AI to help spin up some of the required text?
I feel if this tool was more then just a location for a guide and more of a tool to help you make your branding guide, they it would be x 10 the value.
Than you

May 9, 2024Hi Tim,
ethos was designed for brands who have a developed brand, and are looking to ensure they have brand consistency while activating and deploying their brand online and offline. We've had several customers on our public roadmap request more brand development features, and we released our Brand Audit and Brand Education features as the first shift into this area. Instead of making another DAM we want ethos to be the leader when it comes to building and sharing Brand Guidelines.
We have a section to add links such as social media pages and websites that's planned in our roadmap. This should be live in February/March. In Brand Assets we have additional fields for more logos including Brand Logo and Tagline, Brand Icon, Brand Wordmark, Brand Subsidiary Logos and Brand Alternative Color Lockups. We are going to add the ability to add multiple formats to Brand Logo, so technical and non-technical team members can select the format they'd like to download. We also have added Brand Rules Automation, and Brand Content AI features in our roadmap. You can follow our development, share new features and share suggestions for existing features here: https://trello.com/b/LpiXnkcN/ethos-public-roadmap.
In the next few months ethos should have all of the features that you're requesting to increase it's value 10X for Brand Development and Brand Deployment.
Thanks,
Brian
