Our goal was to create a dynamic and differentiated brand platform that reflects Tight’s advanced technology and market leadership. From the outset, we aimed to elevate the brand’s presence to match its ambition—positioning Tight as the go-to solution for embedded accounting. We focused on developing a strong narrative that conveys both technical sophistication and customer benefit, while building a visual identity system that could scale consistently across all brand expressions—from digital product to sales tools.

Brand Development
We began with a broad creative exploration, testing a variety of identity concepts that reflected Tight’s vision. The final direction communicates both connectivity and momentum—core attributes of Tight’s embedded approach and its forward-looking technology. We refined the visual system, developing a clean, modern, and flexible design language. The typography strikes a balance between approachability and professionalism, while the color palette is bold and confident, establishing a distinct presence for the brand. These brand elements were then thoughtfully applied to an updated website experience, bringing Tight’s new identity to life across every touchpoint.
