Nicely done!

I've spot-checked few logos that I need at the moment, and most of them are already there. However, I've noticed that there is no IndieHackers logo in the database.

I wonder if it is possible to come up with the tool where you would enter the Home Page Url and the tool would then output an SVG file of round or square shape that could be used as an SVG icon to represent links to that site (from my site).

The tool could try to detect the logo image on the home page of the target site, vectorize and normalize it into square or circle. Or it could try to locate a Favicon in SVG format, if present. Or, if nothing else works, it could fall into some default case when the SVG icon would be created from the most dominant color (of the target site) and 1 or 2 letters of the site name.

Do you guys know of any such tool? Thanks!

There are a few sites that do this, though none with SVGs. Search for "logo api" finds ClearBit and RiteKit, among others.
