Summary

The launch of the free company logo API in June received significant attention, trending on platforms like Product Hunt and Hacker News, and since then has served over 30 million logos with notable companies such as Segment and Marketo integrating it into their products. The team has been working on enhancing the API's performance, data quality, and coverage, leading to a new update that introduces a proposal for using the Open Graph specification to designate a company's logo. This update aims to create a decentralized method for logo resolution by allowing companies to specify logo images through a meta tag on their homepage, which Clearbit will prioritize over other sources. Users are encouraged to provide feedback or join the team to further improve the APIs.
