Focus on the changes that matter. Keep what makes the logo work.

1

Increase wordmark contrast for clear readability on white backgrounds.

High priority Low effort

Faint wordmark prevents logo from functioning for primary recognition.

Essential for usability and identity communication.

2

Refine color or arrangement to avoid strong resemblance to Google branding.

Medium priority Medium effort

Improves originality and distinctiveness.
