Website Brand & Favicon Extractor

Get the icon, logo, colours and name a website declares about itself — for thousands of domains, with every asset URL verified to exist.

The usual failure in this category is returning /favicon.ico for sites that do not have one. This Actor sends a HEAD request for every asset and drops the dead ones, so what you get back actually renders.

What you get

{
  "domain": "stripe.com",
  "siteName": "Stripe",
  "description": "Stripe powers online payment processing...",
  "bestIconUrl": "https://images.stripeassets.com/.../favicon.png",
  "bestIconSizePx": 180,
  "logo": "https://images.stripeassets.com/.../stripe-logo.png",
  "ogImage": "https://images.stripeassets.com/.../og.png",
  "themeColor": "#635bff",
  "language": "en",
  "iconCount": 4,
  "icons": [
    { "url": "...", "kind": "apple-touch-icon", "sizePx": 180, "exists": true, "bytes": 4821 }
  ]
}

Main use cases

• CRM and directory enrichment. Turn a list of company domains into logos and brand colours for your UI.
• Link previews and cards — pair with Open Graph metadata.
• Competitive and portfolio monitoring — track when a brand refreshes its identity.
• Design research. Collect theme colours across an industry.
• Investor and marketplace listings that need a logo per company.

Where the assets come from

Field	Source
icons	<link rel="icon">, apple-touch-icon, mask-icon, plus an implicit /favicon.ico probe
logo	JSON-LD Organization.logo — the most reliable declared logo
ogImage / twitterImage	Open Graph and Twitter card tags
siteName	og:site_name, then JSON-LD name, then <title>
themeColor	<meta name="theme-color">

bestIconUrl is the largest verified icon, which is the one worth displaying.

Pricing

Event	Price	When
Site extracted	$0.002	One website's brand assets successfully extracted

Sites that could not be reached are not charged.

1,000 websites = $2.00.

Input

Field	Type	Default	Notes
websites	array	required	Bare domains work. Up to 5,000.
verifyAssets	boolean	true	HEAD every asset and drop dead URLs. Off is faster but returns icons that 404.
concurrency	integer	8	Parallel sites.

Limitations

• No JavaScript rendering, so assets injected client-side are missed. The overwhelming majority of sites declare icons and Open Graph tags in the initial HTML.
• No image analysis. themeColor is the value the site declares, not a colour sampled from the logo. No dominant-colour extraction.
• logo is only returned when the site publishes JSON-LD with an Organization logo. Many sites do not; bestIconUrl is the dependable fallback.
• Assets are linked, not downloaded or rehosted — you get URLs.

Related Actors

• Link Preview API — full OpenGraph unfurling for individual URLs.
• Bulk Email Deliverability Auditor — enrich the same domain list with mail configuration.

Reliability

• Retries on 429 and 5xx with exponential backoff; permanent 4xx errors are not retried.
• Bad input is reported and skipped, never charged.
• One failing target never aborts the rest of the run.
• Concurrency is bounded and configurable — this work is network-bound, so parallel requests, not memory, are what control speed.
