PreciBake: AI-Powered Baking Excellence

The Challenge: Entering the US Market

PreciBake is a software company specialized in baking. By using smart sensor technology, they measure and detect thousands of data points during the baking process. Their products, powered by artificial intelligence, deliver consistently highest quality thanks to their Virtual Baker.

The art of baking is complex. How do you measure the quality of your bread for each baking cycle? PreciBake® has the tools for it. Without guessing, but knowing. With a heavy presence in Europe, PreciBake needed a brand that addressed the US market. During the discovery process, we realized that the Virtual Baker system that they had was so ahead of its time.

Brand Strategy: Modern and Future-Proof

To enable PreciBake to enter the US market, they needed an awesome brand and they came to Spellbrand to help them achieve this. When we heard about how PreciBake’s software utilizes artificial intelligence to learn what a perfect baked good means to the baker and then monitor each product and consistently bake it to the highest quality, we were excited to be working on creating the brand for their Virtual Baker!

We decided to create a brand identity that was modern and would remain relevant a few years from now. We chose to create a logo design that would be flat and resemble an app icon—perfect for a technology company entering the US market.

Logo Design: Baguette Meets Technology

The logo we created depicts a baguette with a play icon on top. This ties together the two core philosophies of the company—high quality baking and extraordinary technology to enable that. The color palette is very subtle and is based on baking and bread.

This design approach works because:

• Dual meaning: Baguette represents baking, play icon represents technology/AI
• App icon style: Flat design ensures modern, tech-forward feel
• Future-proof: Modern design will remain relevant for years
• Subtle colors: Bread-inspired palette connects to baking heritage

Complete Brand Identity System

We also designed a high-quality brochure design, folder design, branded note pad, seals, matching corporate identity, and a fantastic-looking mascot character called “Bernie” that represents their awesome software. Working with European clients on so many different deliverables can be quite challenging. But that is what Spellbrand specializes in.

Brochure Design: Complex Content, Stunning Result

We created an A4 sized tri-fold brochure and a matching folder design. Creating a brochure for a new product launch becomes doubly difficult when there are strict restrictions on the design and content. There was a lot of text and images that we had to incorporate into the brochure. But the end result was quite stunning. The folder design was quite simple yet effective. We also created matching note pad design and a “Quality Seal” that reinforces their commitment to consistent, highest quality baking.

Mascot Design: Bernie the Virtual Baker

When asked how they would describe their software, the client said: “Tell your Virtual Baker once how you want your product to be baked. Due to his talent of taking more than 2000 artificially intelligent decisions the Virtual Baker assures consistent quality over all production facilities.” To turn this statement into a mascot character, we started with the baguette bread from the logo and gave it an attitude. With a baking apron, a large spatula, Google Glass and iPad in its pouch, the character ended up looking cute and techy at the same time!

Bernie works as a mascot because:

• Personifies technology: Makes AI approachable and friendly
• Baking heritage: Baguette form connects to baking tradition
• Modern tech: Google Glass and iPad suggest cutting-edge technology
• Memorable: Cute and techy combination creates strong brand recall

Results: A Brand That Enters the US Market

The brand identity we created for PreciBake successfully positions them for US market entry with a modern, future-proof design that communicates both their baking expertise and technological innovation. The baguette logo with play icon ties together quality baking and AI technology, while Bernie the Virtual Baker mascot makes their advanced software approachable and memorable.

Today, PreciBake uses this brand identity to attract US bakers who need AI-powered software to measure and detect thousands of data points during the baking process, positioning them as the solution for consistent, highest quality baking without guessing—just knowing, thanks to their Virtual Baker system.
