There are a lot of brand guidelines templates out there. The challenge is knowing which ones are actually worth buying before you spend the money.

I went through the most reviewed templates across Gumroad and Creative Market to find what designers are actually buying and what they're saying about them.

Typefool - Multiple Templates

Typefool is one of the most reviewed brand guidelines template sellers across both platforms, with over 33 products ranging from concise 19-page documents to a 145-page brand books. All available in Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator, and Figma.

Reviewers consistently mention how well-structured the files are, paragraph and object styles are set up so font and colour changes propagate through the document. Worth noting: some templates use licensed preview fonts that aren't included in the download.

Aperios Design - Minimal Brand Guidelines Template

Built on a 12-column grid at 1920×1080px, this is one of the most reviewed minimal options on Creative Market. Available in Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign, and Keynote.

Reviewers praise it for covering the essentials, logo, colour, typography, and application, cleanly. A few noted it's on the shorter side for larger projects.

Circular Laurent - Brand Guidelines Template

A 40+ page template available across Adobe InDesign, Canva Pro, and Figma, one of the few options that covers all three well. Reviewers highlight the Canva version especially, for clients who want to make their own updates after handoff.
