Guidelines is a web platform for creating and publishing interactive brand guides that teams can manage together. Guides can collect logos, colors, typography, icons, and downloadable files in a searchable place. Quick Start uses uploaded logos, selected colors, and fonts to prepare an initial guide draft, while collaborators can be invited to design and manage guidelines. Guides can be shared publicly, password-protected, or restricted through account-based authentication. Integrations include Figma, Adobe Creative Cloud, Sketch, Tailwind, CSS Variables, ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, and Okta. The ChatGPT connector uses MCP and OAuth; the support page says it reads brand data without write access. The Free plan costs nothing and includes one public guide, one editor, seven published pages, and 100MB of storage. Studio costs $15 a month, billed per editor per month; Enterprise costs $40 a month, also billed per editor per month, and additional SSO fees may apply per monthly active SSO user. Both paid plans offer broader guide management, with Enterprise adding features including SSO, version history, and localization.
