Do you need a logo for your small business or eCommerce website?

Creating a logo may seem like a daunting task, especially if you’re not comfortable with graphic design.

That’s where AI, artificial intelligence, comes to the rescue. With all kinds of AI-powered image generation tools available, your logo solution is here.

And I can show you which ones are the best! Keep reading to discover which AI logo generators I suggest, plus how to use them with your website.

5 Best AI Logo Generators (Plus How to Use Them)

Midjourney

Midjourney is an AI generative tool offered by Discord that uses machine learning algorithms to interpret your text input. It then generates unique images based on your description.

So, you could use Midjourney to generate logo designs by providing detailed prompts that describe the desired logo elements, colors, and style. For example, here’s what Midjourney came up with for me when I asked for a different rendition of our WPForms logo, Sullie.

Using Midjourney to generate a logo

Here’s a quick breakdown of how you might use Midjourney to generate your logo:

  • Describe your desired logo: Begin by typing a detailed description of your desired logo, including any specific elements, colors, or styles you want to incorporate.
  • Generate images: Midjourney will generate several unique images based on your description, each offering a different interpretation of your ideas.
  • Refine your results: If the initial results aren’t quite what you had in mind, you can refine your description or add specific keywords to guide Midjourney toward creating a more accurate representation of your logo.

Midjourney could also be a helpful tool for brainstorming logo designs and generating ideas, especially if you’re struggling to visualize your concept or are looking for inspiration.

DALL-E

Developed by OpenAI, DALL-E is another AI tool that creates images from textual descriptions. It’s a really simple way to generate logos, concepts, and ideas.

Personally, I think DALL-E is easier to use than Midjourney, especially if you’re somewhat familiar with ChatGPT. For instance, you can see the logos it generated for me from the same prompt I used before.

Using DALL-E to generate a logo

Speaking of prompts, check out all of our AI prompt examples and practical tips for additional guidance.

These are some of the helpful ways you can use DALL-E to generate logos:

  • Brainstorming ideas: You can input various textual prompts describing the desired logo design, and DALL-E will generate multiple images based on your descriptions. This can be helpful for exploring different concepts and visualizing your ideas.
  • Iterative design: Once you have some initial designs generated by DALL-E, you can refine the results by adjusting the text prompts or combining elements from different images. This iterative process allows you to gradually improve the logo design until it meets your requirements.
  • Finalizing the logo: After you’ve found a satisfactory logo design using DALL-E, you can further polish and finalize the design using traditional graphic design software like Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop, ensuring that the final logo is professional and meets your brand’s needs (more on that later!).

For its minimal interface and easy back-and-forth editing of your output, you should consider giving DALL-E a try.

Runway

Runway, also known as Runway AI, focuses on developing generative AI technologies for art, entertainment, and human creativity. Like Midjourney and DALL-E, its tools could be utilized to generate images and multimedia content, including potential logo designs, using text-based descriptions or prompts.

Here are the colorful logos that Runway created for me when I prompted it with the same task as the others:

Using Runway to generate a logo

As you can see, you’re given lots of customization options — like ratio and style — right there in the generator. This way, you don’t have to do additional styling later.

These are just a few of the ways you could use Runway to generate logos:

  • Use text-to-image tools: Runway offers text-to-image tools that can generate images from textual descriptions. You can use these tools to create logo concepts and ideas by describing your desired logo design in words as I did above.
  • Upload and animate images: You can upload your existing logo or design elements to Runway’s platform and use its animation tools to add motion and visual interest to your logo.
  • Create custom generators: Runway allows you to train custom AI generators using a small set of images, which can help you create unique and tailored logo designs based on your preferences and style.
  • Explore pre-made templates and assets: Runway offers a variety of pre-made templates and assets that you can use as a starting point for your logo design. You can customize these templates to fit your brand’s identity and style.

What sets Runway apart from the generators listed before it might be the accessibility to its templates. We’re big lovers of templates here at WPForms, and appreciate any effort towards simplicity for users.

Adobe Sensei

The Adobe suite of products is another option that offers multiple tools for creating or generating a logo. You might already be familiar with Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator, both of which are great for creating logos.

But now, with Adobe Sensei, AI takes these programs to another level. Just look what it was able to do with Sullie in celebration of his birthday!

ai generated images

With the many programs and subscriptions available through Adobe, the creative options are endless. Imagine, then, what it could do for your logo.

These are just a few of the key features from Adobe Sensei that could help you create your logo:

  • Object Selection: This tool uses AI to identify and select objects within an image automatically. With it, you can quickly isolate elements for your logo design.
  • Content-Aware Fill: This allows you to remove unwanted elements from an image and replace them with content that matches the surrounding area. This feature can help you create clean, distraction-free logos.
  • Color Matching: Adobe Sensei helps you generate custom color palettes based on uploaded images or artwork. With it, you can create logos with harmonious color combinations that align with your brand’s style.
  • Neural Filters: Photoshop’s Neural Filters use AI to generate advanced image manipulation effects, such as changing facial expressions, coloring, and more. Experiment with these filters to create unique logo elements.

That said, everything that Adobe offers does come with a bit of a price tag and learning curve. While the tools and options are extensive, it may not be the concise option you might be looking for.

Canva

Canva is an online graphic design platform that allows you to create and edit all kinds of visual content like social media posts, presentations, videos, websites — and logos, of course.

It utilizes customizable templates, design tools, and a vast library of stock images, fonts, and design elements. Basically, Canva is for folks who want to create professional-looking designs but don’t have extensive design skills or software.

Using Canva to generate a logo

I used Canva’s own Magic Media tool to generate a logo for me, but I love the fact that it accesses additional AI platforms to utilize with your design. AI tools from Google, Runway, and others come ready to use within Canva.

Canva might be my (current) favorite tool of all those that I’ve listed here. There are just so many creative offerings all in one place! So, this is a very small sampling of the various ways to use Canva for your logo:

  • Magic Media: Canva’s AI-powered feature allows you to input a prompt describing your desired logo design. The AI then generates a collection of designs that match the given description. You can further customize these designs to suit their brand’s needs.
  • AI-powered design suggestions: Canva’s AI analyzes your logo and suggests design elements like fonts, colors, and images that complement your creation. This feature helps you make visually appealing and effective changes to your logo quickly and easily.
  • Automated layout creation: Using generative AI, Canva enables you to create custom logo templates by selecting a design type and choosing from various design elements. The AI then generates an optimized layout, saving you time and effort.
  • Image recognition and sorting: Canva’s AI allows you to search for images using natural language queries. This way, you can find the perfect images for your logos without spending hours browsing through endless options.

Canva also offers an incredible slew of templates for logos (and other projects), as they have been long before they introduced AI to the site. But now, with its AI capabilities, Canva easily rivals Adobe and the others.

Where Should I Put My New Logo?

Once you have your logo ready to go, there are lots of things you can do with it. For starters, you’ll want to display it on your website in a few different areas.

Fortunately, with WPForms, you can display your logo in multiple key places. It’s easy to do with the form builder and basic settings.

Forms Header

With the Content field, you can showcase your logo as a header on any form you use.

Adding the Content field

Keep in mind that the Content field is accessible with our Pro license, among multiple other additional fields and functionality.

You simply open up the form builder page for your form of choice and drag over the Content field to drop where you’d like. Then you can upload whatever type of media you want displayed there. In this case, the media would be your logo.

That’s pretty much all there is to it, but check out my full tutorial for more detail.

Email Templates

You might also want to display your logo at the top of your form confirmation emails. These are the email messages users receive after they submit a form on your site.

Once again, WPForms makes this an easy option by allowing you to customize the email templates you use with your forms.

Selecting an email template

Not only do you have multiple style options for the layout of your email template, but you also have lots of customization choices for your sizing, background colors, fonts, and more.

You can access these settings through the form builder and a few different places throughout WPForms. So, I suggest following our helpful tutorial on how to make a custom email template.

Login Page

The Pro license coupled with the Content field also sets you up to display your logo on your website’s login page.

Login form published

Creating a personalized login page offers an excellent opportunity to showcase your branding by swapping out the standard WordPress login for your own unique, custom-designed alternative.

To access the login capabilities needed for this form, you’ll need to get the User Registration addon. That’s what enables you to require a username or email and password. Then, you can open the form builder and use the Content field to add your logo as I showed you earlier.

But, for another refresher, take a look at these steps covering how to make a WordPress custom login page.

Why Should I Use AI to Generate My Logo?

Using AI to generate your logo offers numerous benefits, such as affordability, speed, and convenience. AI logo generators provide a quick and cost-effective solution for creating professional logos without requiring design expertise or hiring a designer.

With various customization options available, you can fine-tune your logos to match your brand identity. Plus, these platforms often offer multiple logo variations, so you get to choose the best design that resonates with your brand.

Unfortunately, AI-generated logos may not offer the same level of creativity and personalization as logos designed by professional designers. You may also face limitations in customization options or encounter issues with design originality.

That’s why it’s important to weigh these potential drawbacks against the benefits and choose the best approach for your specific needs.

Are AI logo generators free to use?

Some AI platforms offer free versions with limited features, while others may require a paid subscription for full access to their services. Pricing varies between platforms, so you’ll need to compare the features and costs before choosing one that fits your needs and budget.

Can I trademark a logo created with an AI?

Yes, in most cases, logos created with AI can be trademarked, provided they meet the necessary legal requirements and are unique enough to avoid infringing on existing trademarks. Always consult with a legal professional for guidance on the trademark process.
