For AI agents
Machine-readable versions of this guide: llms.txt, Markdown per page and brand.json.
This page as Markdown ↓On this page
This guide is also built to be read by software. Give an AI assistant one of the addresses below and it will know the Visco brand rules.
The addresses
| Address | What it is |
|---|---|
| https://brand.viscohoreca.nl/llms.txt | An index of the whole guide, with a summary per page. |
| https://brand.viscohoreca.nl/llms-full.txt | The complete guide as one document, in both languages. |
| https://brand.viscohoreca.nl/en/colours.md | Every page also exists as Markdown: add .md to the address. For the home page that is /en/index.md. |
| https://brand.viscohoreca.nl/brand.json | The colours, typefaces, logo rules and files as structured data. |
An example
Ask your assistant something like the following, and it can check your work against the actual rules rather than against an assumption.
“Read https://brand.viscohoreca.nl/llms-full.txt and check whether this flyer meets the Visco brand guidelines.”
What is in brand.json
Where the guide explains the rules in sentences, brand.json states them as fields. An agent checking whether a piece is correct gets more out of minimumHeight.screen than out of a paragraph.
- Every colour with HEX, RGB, CMYK, Pantone and RAL, plus what it is for.
- The typefaces with their weights per level and the line height.
- The logo rules: minimum height, clear space, permitted rotations, forbidden treatments and the co-branding rules.
- Every file with an absolute URL, format and size.
Why this works
Every page is served as complete HTML, not as an empty page filled in later by JavaScript. A program that does not run JavaScript sees the same content as a visitor. Many AI tools work that way. Without complete HTML, the site would look fine in a browser and be empty to such a tool.
