What is Look & Feel?

Look & Feel controls your workspace logo and brand colors for the Atender agent UI — separately from the customer-facing surfaces, which each have their own branding.

What is Look & Feel?

Look & Feel is where you set the workspace logo and brand colors that style the Atender agent UI — the screens your team sees while working in conversations. It lives at Settings → Look & Feel and requires the Look & Feel permission.

What you can change here

There are three things to configure, and a preview pane to check them.

Workspace logo. A single image (JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, or SVG, up to 5 MB) that shows up in the workspace switcher in the top-left of the app and as the browser tab favicon. There’s no separate favicon upload — the same logo is reused.

Brand colors. A primary color (default #2CACA0 — Atender teal) and an optional accent color. Atender automatically derives matching dark-mode variants from your light-mode picks, and you can manually override the dark variants if the auto-derivation doesn’t match your brand.

Link color. An optional color for readable links inside inbound conversation message bubbles. It’s off by default; turn it on with the switch, then set separate light-mode and dark-mode hex values. Link color only affects inbound conversation links — it doesn’t replace your brand colors across the rest of the agent UI.

The preview pane underneath shows buttons, badges, tabs, hover states, and message bubbles using your selections — toggle between Light and Dark to see both.

Where these settings take effect

Your Look & Feel choices style the agent UI itself: the sidebar, buttons, selected tabs, focus rings, chart accents, and hover/active states. Brand colors still drive buttons, tabs, accents, and other interface states. If Link color is enabled, it changes readable links inside inbound message bubbles so they can stay legible in light and dark mode.

That’s it. Look & Feel doesn’t push your branding to customer-facing surfaces — each of those has its own branding configuration:

  • The Web Chat widget has its own brand color (set on the widget’s settings).
  • The Knowledge Base portal has its own branding system (Knowledge Base → Layout & Branding) with separate logo, header background, link color, and dark-mode overrides.
  • The public Incidents / status page has its own logo and primary color.
  • Email Studio templates carry logos at the block level — each email template can include its own header logo.
  • The CSAT survey uploads its own logo via a separate upload.

This separation is deliberate: the agent UI is for your team, and the customer-facing surfaces are configured where they ship from. If you want a consistent brand across all of them, you’ll need to set the logo and colors on each one.

What Look & Feel doesn’t include

A few things tenants sometimes expect to be here that aren’t:

  • Custom fonts. Atender uses its own typography across the app — you can’t swap the font family.
  • Custom CSS. There’s no stylesheet override.
  • Per-user or per-team theming. Look & Feel is tenant-wide. Everyone in the tenant sees the same logo and colors.
  • Light/dark mode toggling for individual users. The OS-level light/dark preference handles that automatically; the dark-mode colors you set are what individual agents see when their system is in dark mode.
