“Type your company name” fields fail quietly: typos, subsidiaries, brands whose trading name doesn’t match the legal one. The Brand Search API turns that field into a type-ahead: a partial name goes in, matching brands come out, each with its name, domain, and logo. The classic type-ahead: debounced live search with each result showing the brand’s icon, name, and domain. Selecting a result hands you the domain and brandId, the keys you pass to Brandfetch’s other APIs.

Implementation

1

Debounce the input

Fire a search after a short pause in typing (~200 ms). Requests can go straight from the browser, the API is free and authenticates with your client ID as a query parameter.
2

Render the results

Each match carries the brand’s name, domain, and icon, exactly the three things an autocomplete row needs. Show a skeleton row while the request is in flight.
3

Keep the domain

The selected domain is the stable key for everything that follows, store it, and chain into the Brand API for colors, fonts, and company data when you need more than the logo.
Review the usage guidelines and rate limits before going live, search requests should come from your users’ browsers, debounced between keystrokes.
