Branding on Fast-Forward with Logo.com’s Free AI Logo Maker

Today I traded my old-school design hat for a quick AI sprint, test-driving Logo.com’s free logo generator to craft the first visual identity for Spun By AI. Here’s how the two-hour session unfolded—and what anyone can (and can’t) do on the platform without spending a cent.

What I did

1. Instant ideation – I typed “Spun By AI” plus a couple of vibe keywords and the generator served up a lot of different concepts in seconds.

2. Tweak marathon – A built-in editor let me swap fonts, shuffle colours, and fine-tune icon placement until one mark felt right. Vast library of icons to choose from 👍

3. Download & ship – The free plan let me export high-resolution PNG on different backgrounds. I had hoped for vectors/SVG, but no such luck.

Free-tier perks

• Unlimited logo concepts and edits before you commit.

• High-res PNG downloads (no paywall).

• Full commercial rights to the mark you create (no attribution required).

Limitations I bumped into

• No surgical vector editing: You can resize, recolour and move elements, but you can’t break paths, adjust anchor points or rasterise text for “old-school illustrator” control.

• Advanced brand assets live behind the paywall: Logo.com's “Brand Plan” (≈ $8-10 /mo) unlocks the Stitch design tool, social templates, and other goodies

• Font scope is broad but not infinite: You’re limited to the service’s curated library.

• Offline proofing/CMYK exports need third-party software—only RGB web formats are free.

Takeaway

For a founder racing from idea to minimum-viable-brand, logo.com is a legit zero-budget shortcut. You’ll have a polished logo and favicon ready in under half a morning. If, like me, you occasionally crave bezier-point perfection, you’ll still need Illustrator or a paid upgrade—but that’s a fair trade-off for “free and instant.”

Next steps

I am quite happy with the logo I whipped up and the time spent doing it, even if I found a few limitations to the platform. I will want to test Canva's free AI logo generator as well, - maybe for the next post.
