Ultralytics Branding

Apply these rules to every Ultralytics-branded deliverable. Source of truth: https://www.ultralytics.com/brand

Colors

Primary palette:

| Name | Hex | Use | | ----------- | --------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | | Dark Blue | `#111F68` | Primary brand color, headings, dark logo, dark backgrounds | | Bright Blue | `#042AFF` | Accents, links, CTAs, highlights | | Neon Yellow | `#E1FF25` | High-energy accent, callouts on dark | | Neon Pink | `#FF64DA` | Secondary accent, sparingly | | Light Grey | `#F3F3F3` | Light backgrounds, cards | | White | `#FFFFFF` | Backgrounds, text on dark |

Secondary palette (supporting accents only, never dominant): Aqua Blue `#00FFFF`, Light Blue `#ACF9FF`, Neon Green `#76FFD6`, Grey `#CCCCCC`, Dark Grey `#9E9E9E`.

Rules:

• Default scheme: white or Light Grey background, Dark Blue text, Bright Blue accents. Dark scheme: Dark Blue background, white text, Neon Yellow or Aqua accents.
• Neon colors are accents, not fills for large areas or body text.
• Keep text and logos at a 3.5:1 contrast ratio minimum against their background.

Bounding box palette (detection or annotation visuals, one color per class, labels in Arial): Bright Blue `#042AFF`, Vivid Sky Blue `#0BDBEB`, Bleached Silk `#F3F3F3`, Robin Egg Blue `#00DFB7`, Pure Midnight `#111F68`, Candy Pink `#FF6FDD`, Sunburnt Cyclops `#FF444F`, Electric Lime `#CCED00`, Malachite `#00F344`, Electric Purple `#BD00FF`, Blue Bolt `#00B4FF`, Deep Magenta `#DD00BA`, Aqua `#00FFFF`, Yellow-Green `#26C000`, Medium Spring Green `#01FFB3`, Blue-Violet `#7D24FF`, Philippine Violet `#7B0068`, Electric Pink `#FF1B6C`, Smashed Pumpkin `#FC6D2F`, Spring Bud `#A2FF0B`.

Typography

• Official typeface: **Archivo** (Google Fonts, free). Fallback stack: `Archivo, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif`. In PPTX/DOCX where Archivo is unavailable, use Arial.
• Headings: Archivo Bold, tight scale from 72px hero down, 116% line-height.
• Body: Archivo Regular at 24px (large), 18px (medium), 16px (regular), 14px (small).
• Never use serif or decorative fonts. Bounding box labels use Arial.

Logo

• Assets: logo pack at https://cdn.ul.run/f/4bf3c9729ff9eb1affc29e2dcab72bfc.zip, more on the brand page (Ultralytics, YOLO, YOLOv5, YOLOv8, YOLO11, YOLO26, YOLO Vision, Platform logotypes and logomarks).
• Dark Blue logo on light backgrounds, white logo on dark backgrounds.
• Keep clear space around the logo, never stretch, recolor, rotate, add effects, or redraw it.
• Co-branding: Ultralytics logo first and largest, separate partner logos with a simple dividing line, official assets only.

Naming

• First mention: "Ultralytics YOLO26", after that "YOLO26".
• YOLO is always all caps, no space before the version: YOLO26, never YOLO 26 or Yolo26.
• Lowercase "v" only in YOLOv5 and YOLOv8. Newer models drop the "v": YOLO11, YOLO26, never YOLOv26.
• Never shorten, restyle, or alter product names.
• Non-partners describe usage as "leveraged Ultralytics solutions", never "partnered with" or "collaborated with" without an actual agreement.

Tone of Voice

Knowledgeable, approachable, confident, energetic. Brand claim: "Simpler. Smarter. Further."

• Positive and straightforward, conversational except in technical content.
• Lighthearted with personality, grounded, never boastful.
• American English, inclusive language, no all caps, no excessive punctuation.

Social Media

Post structure: intro sentence ending with one emoji, then body details, then CTA with a ➡️ arrow and shortened link.

• One emoji after the intro sentence only, never mid-sentence or replacing words.
• Concise copy, clear CTA, branded hashtags: #Ultralytics, #YOLO11, #YOLO26, #VisionAI.
• No off-topic memes, no posting during breaking news.

Per-Format Defaults

• **Slides (PPTX, Canva, PDF)**: title slides Dark Blue background with white Archivo Bold and a neon accent, content slides white with Dark Blue headings, Bright Blue for links and highlights, generous whitespace, logo small in a corner.
• **Documents (DOCX, PDF)**: white background, Dark Blue headings, black or Dark Blue body, Bright Blue links, Archivo or Arial.
• **Marketing email HTML**: table-based layout, web-safe fallback stack, Dark Blue header band with white logo, Bright Blue CTA button with white text, Light Grey section dividers, 600px max width.
• **Web and social visuals**: pick one scheme (light or dark) per asset, one neon accent max, banner sizes 1920x960 for platform headers.
