Two marks,
one identity.
The aiora identity uses two complementary marks: the ao logomark for compact contexts and the ai.ora wordmark for full brand expression.
Clear Space
Maintain a minimum clear space equal to the height of the "o" counter around all sides of the logo.
Minimum Sizes
Ensure legibility at small sizes. The logomark holds up smaller than the wordmark.
More than two circles.
The ao mark was designed to do several things at once. Here's what's baked in.

The mark takes the first three letters of aiora — compressed into a single glyph. Two rings for the a and o, a half-stem for the i. Three letters, one mark. The name is always in the logo.
Two rings side by side read as eyes — watching, present, attentive. The brand has a gaze. Most AI logos don't. The half-stem below shifts the face from staring to grounded — it gives the expression a chin, a centre of gravity, something almost portrait-like.
Each ring is a closed form — no start, no end. Visually it says the system never stops. The stem only drops from the midpoint down, as if the mark has already been running before you looked at it.
The top half is clean and symmetrical — two equal rings meeting in the middle. The bottom half breaks that with the half-stem dropping below. It's stable without being static. Reliable, but with a pulse.
The stem only appears below the midline — like the work aiora actually does. Calls answered, orders processed, messages sent. You see the results up top. The engine runs underneath.
Most AI brands look like dashboards. The ao mark gives aiora something closer to an expression — human by accident, intentional by design. The shorter stem makes the face read stronger: two eyes above, structure below. It's looking at you, ready to help.
Monochrome by design.
aiora's palette is deliberately restrained. Black and white form the core identity, with grays providing hierarchy and depth. No accent colors - confidence needs no decoration.
Two typefaces. Clear hierarchy.
DM Sans handles everything from headlines to body copy - geometric, modern, and warm. Space Mono provides contrast for labels, data, and technical elements.
70% light. 30% dark.
Light is the default. Dark punctuates - use it for milestones, launches, and data reveals. One dark post for every two or three light ones.

- →Testimonials and customer stories

Dark posts interrupt a light-dominant feed. Use them to punctuate, not dominate.
