Today
The Twilio Segment logo features a clean and modern design characterized by a combination of geometric shapes and a vibrant color palette. The symbol to the left of the name resembles interconnected shelves with data. This design symbolizes Segment’s ability to collect, unify, and activate customer data from various sources. The name is printed in two lines with “Twilio”, which owns Segment, being added above the name. In fact, it is clear that the Segment round symbol was inspired by the round symbol seen in the Twilio logo. The overall impression is one of professionalism and technological advancement.
Font and Color
The logo features two different fonts. One of them is the font used in the Twilio logo, the company that owns Segment. It is similar to Granby Elephant Pro font but with the ascender in the “t” being cut on a diagonal or Acronym Extrablack font by AE Type Inc. The actual company name is printed using a different sans-serif font that resembles PMN Caecilia Sans Pro Head Regular font.
The logo combines two colors. The inscription is typically done in classic black which creates a formal, powerful, and timeless appearance. It is accented by green, which is often associated with growth, progress, and prosperity. This is exactly what Segment helps companies achieve.
