Work your Way.

The brand, voice, and product UI for Australia's AI-powered Workforce-as-a-Service.
A workforce platform, not a job board.

We're the
Employer of Record.

Businesses post shifts. Vetted workers secure them. MyGig handles payroll, super, workers comp, and award interpretation — across hospitality, warehousing, events, retail, construction, agriculture, and mining.

The big idea

Human grit
meets confident systems.

The MyGig wordmark sets the whole system: a hand-painted "my" sitting next to a bold geometric "Gig". Every visual decision lands somewhere on that spectrum.

MyGig wordmark
PART 01 — FOUNDATIONS

Colour.

Three commitments: deep off-true black, the MyGig violet, warm paper. No gradients. No corporate blue.

The three commitments

A palette borrowed
from the worksite.

Ink
Brand black
The wordmark black. Never pure #000. Primary surface, type.
#0E0D0B
Brand violet
Signature accent
Pulled straight from mygig.com.au. Used confidently — CTAs, key brand moments, info chips. White text reads on top.
#6C60FF
Paper
App background
Warm off-white, not cool grey. Gives every screen a tiny analog feel.
#FAF8F4

PART 02 — FOUNDATIONS

Type.

Three voices that mirror the wordmark composition.

Three voices, one wordmark.

A heavy display, a workhorse body,
a brushed accent.

DISPLAY — Sora 700/800 The "Gig" voice. Hero, big numbers.
Post a shift in 60 seconds.
BODY — Manrope 400/500/600/700 UI, paragraphs, data.
Every worker is verified across 30+ data points, including skills, certifications, and work history.
SCRIPT — Permanent Marker The "my" voice. Hero only — never UI.
Work your Way
MONO — JetBrains Mono Shift IDs, timestamps, payslip lines.

PART 03 — FOUNDATIONS

Voice.

Plain-spoken Aussie. Confident. Evidence-led.
Talk like a competent ops manager who respects the worker on the floor.

What we sound like

Concrete > clever.
Numbers > adjectives.

✓ Do

"Post a shift in under 60 seconds."
"We're the Employer of Record — we take the legal weight, you get the workers."
"Get paid the day after your shift."
"Top workers get first dibs on shifts."

✕ Don't

"Streamline your workforce procurement journey."
"We provide an EOR layer."
"Optimised payout cadences."
"Premium-tier operatives receive prioritised allocation."
PART 04 — IN PRODUCT

System.

Tokens, components, motifs — how the foundations turn into shipped UI.

Components

Buttons, pills, and the
stamp motif.

Buttons
Primary uses the stamp motif — violet fill + 4px ink border + offset shadow.
Status pills
Confirmed Open Cert expiring ★ Top worker
Pills are a signature — used heavily for shift state, certs, worker tier.
Stamp motif — a deliberate brand moment
90%+ FILL RATE
EOR NSW · WA · TAS · NT
Feels like a job-site sign / parking permit. Used on the primary CTA, hero badges, and the compliance callout. Once per screen, max.
The atomic unit

The Shift card.

Every worker-facing screen revolves around this. Industry tag, position, location, time, est. earnings, and a single brand-violet CTA.

  • Money in AUD, always with cents
  • Time in 12-hour local, lowercase am/pm
  • Industry tint chip · never elsewhere
  • One stamp CTA · "Secure shift"

Imagery — the MyGig look

Real workers. Real worksites.
Documentary, not stock.

The signature pattern: vertical portrait cards, one per industry, lined up under the headline. Warm natural light, faces visible, the work in frame.

One brand, three surfaces

Same system. Different tone
for each audience.

01 — Marketing site
Confident, evidence-led.
Big stamped CTAs. Real-photo hero cards. Numbers up top. The audience is making a decision — give them proof.
02 — Business platform
Operational, calm.
Dense tables, fixed sidebar, the compliance strip as the one brand moment. They're at work, not browsing.
03 — Worker app
Friendly, motivating.
Earnings on the hero. Streak stamps. Big tap-targets. Profile photos when we have them. Repeat engagement is the goal.
Roadmap

v1 ready.
Figma next.

This v1 is built from the wordmark, the public site, and a strong reading of MyGig's positioning. Real source materials will refine every layer.

01. Figma reconciliation.
Align colours, type, components against the canonical source when files arrive.
02. Photography library.
Real workers on real worksites — the library is already live.
03. Icon set.
Lucide is the v1 choice — swap for MyGig custom if one exists.
04. More screens.
Post-a-shift flow, worker onboarding, payslip, incident reporting.
