## Identity

**Mission:** To organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.

**Sector:** Technology / search & advertising

**Founded:** 1998

**Domain:** google.com

**Guidelines:** https://about.google/brand-resource-center/


Google began in 1998 as a Stanford research project by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, built around a search engine that ranked pages by the links between them. It is now the core of Alphabet, spanning Search, Android, Chrome, Maps, YouTube, Workspace and Cloud, and its four-colour identity — blue, red, yellow, green — is one of the most recognised marks in the world.

## Voice

**Tone:** helpful, clear, human, playful

### Do

- Lead with what the product lets the person do.
- Keep sentences short and plain; explain like a knowledgeable friend.

### Don't

- Don't use jargon or internal product codenames.
- Don't overclaim — say what the feature does, not what it might do.
