Objections
Scores don't match human judgment of logo quality
From 3 comments
I saw this on /r/design last night[1], haven't tried it yet, but based on the comments, it's not as intelligent as advertised. It ranks low the uniqueness of the Nike logo and…
rsoto on HNI tried our company's logo (https://bench.co/press-kit/#brand), which I think is pretty strong, and it gave it high marks. But then I tried a very bad logo ("Kate's Florist" from…

Scores unstable with scale and padding
From 2 comments
Yeah, two nearly identical versions (probably only resolution differences) of our logo resulted in 21% & 94% similarity scores
dschep on HNColor-contrast seems highly dependend on how much whitespace there is within the image. It should evalute with some added white padding.

Share result URLs

Just a suggestion: after uploading a logo it would be nice if I could share the URL of the results. And this would make your site more popular

Compare against a broader logo database
From 1 comment
Cool! I tried it with our logo (https://www.airbornos.com/images/logo-mark.png), which is super generic (I spent $0 on it). It came up as 96% unique, even though there's two…
