Brandicons.dev provides clean, consistent domain icons via a simple API. Built for developers who want reliable icons without maintaining libraries. One-URL API, fast CDN delivery, automatic icon scraping, and AI-powered discovery for domains without web servers.
Hey! This is my first launch as an indie dev (and my second launch in a decade 😅).
While building my email provider, I needed icons for email domains — not just for websites.
Most new logo/icon APIs that popped up after the Clearbit shutdown don’t provide icons for marketing email domains or domains that simply don’t have a web server attached. And this is exactly my use case.
So… I built a solution.
What Brandicons.dev offers:
⚡ CDN-backed delivery for fast, cached icons
🤖 AI-based discovery for domains with no web server
🧩 Graceful fallbacks for domains without icons yet
🔐 API key hotlink protection (API keys are public on the client — this keeps them safe)
For the last decade, I’ve worked on a couple of projects that needed a service like this, so now there’s finally one — and I’m sharing it with everyone.
Hope you’ll find it useful — feedback and comments are very welcome!
P.S. Even if this service isn’t something you need right now, stop by the homepage and click the green play button — it’s fun :)
Thanks,
Alex L.
