What is the OpenBrand MCP server?
OpenBrand is an MCP server that extracts brand assets (logos, colors, backdrop images, and brand names) from any website URL. It provides a tool-based interface for Claude and other MCP-compatible clients to automatically identify and retrieve visual branding elements from web pages.
OpenBrand analyzes websites to automatically extract brand identity elements including logos, color palettes, backdrop images, and brand names. Use it when you need to quickly gather branding information from a URL for design reference, competitive analysis, or brand documentation without manual inspection.

OpenBrand MCP server FAQ
OpenBrand extracts logos (favicons, apple-touch-icons, header/nav logos, inline SVGs), brand colors (from meta tags, manifest.json, and dominant colors), backdrop images (og:image, CSS backgrounds, hero images), and brand names (from og:site_name, application-name, logo alt text, page title).
OpenBrand offers a free API key available at openbrand.sh/dashboard. The MCP server can be installed without an API key, but you'll need one to make extraction requests.
Install via: `claude mcp add --transport stdio openbrand -- npx -y openbrand-mcp`. Then add your API key from openbrand.sh/dashboard to your .claude/settings.json or via the --env flag.
You need a free API key from openbrand.sh/dashboard to make extraction requests. The MCP server itself can be installed without authentication, but the OPENBRAND_API_KEY environment variable is required for actual brand extraction.
OpenBrand returns structured data including logo assets, color assets, backdrop image assets, and brand name as a JSON response with dimensions and URLs for images.

As an agent skill
Add OpenBrand to Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, and 40+ other agents:
npx skills add tight-studio/openbrand
Once installed, your agent automatically knows how to extract brand assets — just ask it to "extract brand assets from stripe.com".
As an npm package
No API key required. Runs as a library from your server-side code.
npm add openbrand
import { extractBrandAssets } from "openbrand";
const result = await extractBrandAssets("https://stripe.com");
if (result.ok) {
// result.data.brand_name → "Stripe"
// result.data.logos → LogoAsset[]
// result.data.colors → ColorAsset[]
// result.data.backdrop_images → BackdropAsset[]
} else {
// result.error.code → "ACCESS_BLOCKED" | "NOT_FOUND" | "SERVER_ERROR" | ...
// result.error.message → human-readable explanation
}
As an MCP server
Use OpenBrand as a tool in Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.
- Install the MCP server (no API key needed to install):
claude mcp add --transport stdio openbrand -- npx -y openbrand-mcp
- Get your API key from openbrand.sh/dashboard and add it:
claude mcp add --transport stdio \
--env OPENBRAND_API_KEY=your_api_key \
openbrand -- npx -y openbrand-mcp
Or add to .claude/settings.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"openbrand": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "openbrand-mcp"],
"env": {
"OPENBRAND_API_KEY": "your_api_key"
}
}
}
}
Then ask Claude to "extract brand assets from stripe.com" and it will use the extract_brand_assets tool automatically.
