The problem with this implementation I feel is that I'm 100% willing to spend hours scrolling through logos for something that would be the face of a project, so the top pick, or even the top 100 picks are not really meaningful to me. The part where this kind of service could be useful is that its faster to scroll through options than to fiddle with logos in photoshop to create options. In that vein I'd include a feedback loop where you can explore things that are adjacent to something you like. In my case I'd say "This icon is a slam dunk, lock it in and let's explore other elements."

You're spot on with your suggestion. This is a feature that we are very excited to be working on right now. We are working on different embeddings that lets you choose stuff based on your preferences. We wanted to first iteration of the product to be an end-to-end pipeline that creates decent logos. I believe we've achieved that and we're now working towards adding some cool features in the next few months. One feedback we got from another user was to reduce the number of logos we show. Asking people to select one from 50 logos seemed like a good idea but people struggle to select one from 50 from what I've observed. We'll still let everyone see 50 logos for a while until our ML models are so good that the top 5 logos we make are the ones you're gonna like.

"a feedback loop where you can explore things that are adjacent to something you like" - I dabbled with this idea for a bit a few years back and ended up with logocaster.com as an early demo of the idea (desktop only). If you see a logo you like you can lock in the color scheme, font/font category and (basic) style. I wish I had the time to get some icons in there and a better UI, but it's tough to compete with the awesome free logo generators out there, so I put it on hold.

  Nice website you've got there.

    Thanks -- it was just an interesting diversion with a trickle of traffic over the years, no ML under the hood (or anywhere close to it for that matter). I wish you and your team the best with your product, I especially would love to see custom drawn icons courtesy of your AI!
