Do I need a graphic designer or can Canva or AI just make it for me?
Canva or AI "could" make your graphics and branding, but they don't offer the professional insights of an industry expert, with over 20+ years of experience. Nor does Canva or AI think about how you'll be using the project, who your audience is or ensure that it can grow and develop with you.
Can I just use Claude or chatGPT to create my logo?
Top five reasons why you shouldn't use AI, like ChatGPT or Claude, to create your logo: #5 - AI Understanding is too Literal and Generic #4 - AI Logo Generators Don’t Produce Vectors, or a workable design that can be shrunk or expanded without lowering the quality #3 - No Editing Capabilities #2 - No Text Generation #1 - You Can’t Trademark AI Generated Logos
