Brandkit overview

Brandkit Limited has specialised in brand and digital asset management since 1994 and remains self-funded. The platform combines a DAM and knowledge library with public or private portals, custom branding and domains, a lightweight CMS for brand guidelines, self-registration for partners and multi-lingual, multi-portal set-ups on Enterprise plans. AI features include auto-tagging, metadata generation and natural-language search, plus the Brand-Bot chatbot, sold as an add-on or standalone product, that is trained on the customer's content. API and MCP support allow use with external AI agents. Enterprise plans add SSO through Entra ID or Auth0, a nominated data region and backups to a customer-owned AWS S3 bucket.

VisitScotland is the main published European reference, with most case studies from New Zealand and Australia.

Strengths

  • Strong fit for tourism boards and public agencies that run open media libraries for partners and press.
  • Unlimited users and published USD pricing from a low entry point.
  • AI Brand-Bot and MCP support make brand content usable by chatbots and AI agents.
  • Enterprise plans offer a nominated data region and customer-owned S3 backups.

Considerations

  • No European office; support runs from New Zealand with a mostly remote team.
  • EU data residency is limited to the Enterprise plan's nominated data region and should be confirmed.
  • Set-up and custom design fees are charged on top of Pro and Enterprise subscriptions.
