Bringing a new AI startup to market with new branding
Overview
Gilagu is the company behind Ordo, a regulation rule engine built for financial services, insurance, and mortgage teams that need AI they can actually trust. We partnered with them to build a complete visual identity from the ground up, translating the rigor of governed AI into a brand experience that feels as considered and credible as the industries it serves. The identity is built on a hexagon-based geometric system, a shape language chosen for what it communicates: structure, connectivity, and precision. Set against a typographic pairing of LT Superior Serif for weight and gravitas and Mona Sans for clarity and function, the system gives Ordo a presence that's calm, technical, and quietly confident rather than flashy, earning trust with regulated buyers rather than chasing attention.
Outcome
What the work delivered.
- 01
A complete visual identity built from scratch: hexagon-based geometric system, logo suite, colour and typographic pairing of LT Superior Serif with Mona Sans.
- 02
A brand language built for regulated buyers — calm, technical and precise rather than the glowing abstractions the AI category defaults to.
- 03
One system covering both the Gilagu parent brand and the Ordo product, so the rule engine and the company reinforce rather than compete with each other.
- 04
Motion and applied assets ready for launch, from keynote screens through to product surfaces.
