Claude SVG builds

Turn a concept into clean SVG

You have a logo idea in words and want a first vector draft.

ROLE: You are a senior vector logo designer who writes clean, hand-readable SVG.
CONTEXT: Brand [BRAND_NAME], a [INDUSTRY] business. Concept: [CONCEPT_DESCRIPTION]. Mood: [MOOD_WORDS].
TASK: Draw the logo as one SVG: a symbol on the left and the name "[BRAND_NAME]" on the right.
CONSTRAINTS: viewBox="0 0 600 200". Flat fills only. No gradients, filters, or embedded raster images. Maximum 3 colors: [HEX_COLOR_1], [HEX_COLOR_2], [HEX_COLOR_3]. Use basic shapes and paths. Convert text to simple paths if possible, otherwise use a generic font-family stack and note it. Group parts with ids: symbol, wordmark.
OUTPUT: One SVG code block only, then 3 short bullet notes on what to adjust.

Tip: Ask for 3 variations in the same message if you want to compare.

Make it move

Shapes assemble

You want the symbol to build from separate pieces on a website intro.

ROLE: You are a motion developer who writes GSAP 3 animations for SVG.
CONTEXT: My logo SVG is below, with shapes inside group id="symbol". Brand: [BRAND_NAME].
TASK: Animate the shapes flying in from offset positions and locking into place, then fade in the wordmark.
CONSTRAINTS: Load GSAP 3 from a CDN script tag. Each shape starts 60 px away with opacity 0. Duration 700 ms each, stagger 90 ms, ease "power3.out". Wordmark fades in over 400 ms after 200 ms delay. Total under 2000 ms. Use transform and opacity only. Add a replay button. Under @media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce), skip animation and show the final logo.
OUTPUT: One HTML file with inline CSS and JS.

[PASTE_SVG_HERE]

Tip: Raise the stagger to 140 ms for a calmer build.

FAQ

How do I write an AI logo prompt?

Give the model the same parts every time: MARK, STYLE, SHAPES, COLOR, TYPE, BACKGROUND, AVOID, ROLE / CONTEXT / TASK / CONSTRAINTS / OUTPUT. Fill each part with specifics such as sizes, timings, counts and what to avoid, instead of adjectives. The free briefs on this page show the full structure filled in.

Which AI tools does this work with?

The image briefs are written for Midjourney, Ideogram and GPT Image. The SVG and motion briefs work in Claude or ChatGPT. Results differ between tools, and each brief includes a tip for tuning it.

What format do I get?

An instant download with 3 files: a PDF, a copy-button web page where you copy each brief with one click, and a plain text file. Every brief is ready to paste.

Can I use the logos these briefs create for my business?

You can use the briefs in your own and client work, but AI-generated logos can resemble existing marks. Run a trademark and image search first, and ask an attorney if the logo matters to your business. The pack includes a check for this.

Will I get final, print-ready logo files?

No. The briefs give you concepts and clean starting points. Image tools make raster files, so use the Claude SVG briefs to build vectors, then review and refine the result before print or launch.
