Last verified:
What is ClearLogo.dev?
ClearLogo.dev is a logo API that transforms raw website logos into usable, background-aware, ratio-fit assets specifically designed for dashboards, tables, CRMs, and browser apps. Unlike traditional logo APIs that simply return raw logo files, ClearLogo automatically processes logos to ensure they render properly across different UI contexts and background colors.
Key features include automatic background detection and adaptation, consistent aspect ratio handling, size scaling via query parameters, support for PNG/JPG/WebP formats, retina display support, greyscale options, and a global CDN for fast delivery. The API uses a simple URL structure where you request logos by domain name (e.g., api.clearlogo.dev/logo/github.com).
The tool is designed for developers building SaaS dashboards, business directories, marketplaces, CRM systems, and any application that needs to display company logos consistently. It solves the common problem of logos looking inconsistent or breaking UI layouts when fetched directly from company websites.
ClearLogo requires no authentication for low-volume testing and provides a playground for experimentation. Production use requires obtaining an API key. The service covers millions of domains and updates logos automatically to ensure brands always display their current branding.
