The loop that finishes the job
Three arcs — plan, act, verify — in the Romanian tricolour, forming an open c. The opening is where the next step goes.

Logo
Symbol and lockups
Use the files as they are. Pick the dark or light version for the background it sits on.
Symbol
The mark alone. App icons, avatars, favicons, anywhere space is tight.
Horizontal lockup
Mark and wordmark side by side. The default for headers and documents.
Stacked lockup
Mark above the wordmark. For square spaces and posters.
Construction
Built on a 16-unit lattice
Every size is drawn from the same lattice. The micro cut uses 2-cell strokes so the three strokes stay readable at 20 px.
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Grid | 16 × 16 units |
| Cell | 1 cell = 1 px at 16 px |
| Stem (plan) | x 3–5, y 2–13 (3 wide) |
| Arm (act) | (6,7) → (11,2), 3 thick |
| Leg (verify) | (6,8) → (12,13), 3 thick |
| Order | petrol → gold → vermilion, top to bottom |
| Size | Use | Spec |
|---|---|---|
| master | ≥ 48 px, print, marketing | grid 16 × 16 · 3-cell strokes |
| small | 24–32 px, UI, favicon SVG | grid 16 × 16 · 3-cell strokes |
| micro | 20 px | grid 16 × 16 · 2-cell strokes |
| pixel | Exactly 16 px: ICO layer, tray at 100 %, title bar | hand-placed 16 × 16 pixels |
Usage
Clear space, sizes, misuse
Give the mark room, keep it above its minimum size, and never change how it is drawn.
Clear space
Keep ¼ of the mark height free on every side. Lockups use the same rule.
Minimum sizes
- Symbol: 16 px (pixel variant) · 6 mm in print
- Horizontal lockup: 72 px · 20 mm in print
16 px · 72 pxDo not
Each of these breaks the mark. Use the files as they are.

What the colours mean in the product
Plan
Petrol. The agent is working out the steps.
Act
Gold. The agent is running tools and writing changes.
Verify
Vermilion. The agent is checking the result.
Errors are never shown by vermilion alone: the UI uses the danger colour, an icon and text.

Naming
Written Kodwen — capital K, rest lowercase, also at the start of a sentence. Never KODWEN, KodWen or “the Kodwen”; the all-lowercase kodwen is only for technical identifiers (hostnames, package names, commands). Products: Kodwen desktop, Kodwen hub, Kodwen pay, Kodwen gateway; the model is just Kodwen.
