BrandBay

Every agency ends up with the same problem eventually: the client logo lives in someone's Dropbox, the hex codes are in an old Slack thread, and the brand video is on a hard drive nobody has touched since March. BrandBay is a single home for that stuff — logos, colors, videos, code snippets, whatever you keep asking Sarah in design to re-send.

What BrandBay actually does

You upload the brand's assets once, then hand the right people a link. Clients see a tidy portal instead of a Google Drive folder with 400 loose PNGs.

• Store logos, colors, videos, and code snippets in a per-brand workspace
• Share white-labeled client portals so the URL and branding stay yours
• Assign roles with custom permissions across team and client access levels
• Send white-labeled email invitations that add someone to a specific brand
• Grab assets on the fly with a Chrome extension
• Search across every workspace with smart search
• Bulk upload, comment on assets, and password-protect the sensitive ones

The features that matter

• Brand workspaces — one bucket per brand, so nothing bleeds across accounts.
• Team and client access levels — the client sees what you want them to see, and nothing else.
• Custom collections — group assets by campaign, format, or whatever fits the way you work.
• Media embedding and hosting — hand off a video without asking anyone to download a 200MB file.
• Advanced gradient color support — the brand's actual gradient stays intact, not flattened to a hex.
• Custom asset preview control — the thumbnail the client sees is the one you picked.

Who it's built for

Small agencies, freelance designers, and in-house teams juggling more than one brand. The value shows up the moment you stop sending logos over email. If you only run one brand and never share assets outside the team, a shared folder still works — this is for the people who have to open the same conversation with a new client every month.

How you actually use it

The workflow is short: create a brand, drop the assets in, invite whoever needs them. You're not learning a design tool, you're organizing what you already own.

• Create a workspace for the brand and set its colors, fonts, and defaults.
• Upload logos, videos, and files in bulk — no one-at-a-time nonsense.
• Invite teammates or clients with the access level that fits their role.
• Share the white-labeled portal link so the client lands on your branding, not BrandBay's.

The starter tier gets you five brands, four users, and 100GB. That's enough for most freelancers and small studios to stop paying the Dropbox-plus-Notion-plus-random-hosting tax. If you scale, higher tiers add unlimited brands, more users, and CNAME white-labeling so the portal runs on your own subdomain.
