Brand hierarchy
One identity, four clear roles.
- Tailored Deals
- Company and consumer brand
- TD
- Compact visual shorthand
- DEX
- Mascot and catalogue guide
- Deal Explorer
- DEX’s functional role
DEX trust system
Every badge must reveal its evidence.
“DEX Verified” is reserved for the strict all-checks-passed state.
DEX Retailer Checked
A live retailer destination check is recorded.
DEX Code Tested
A successful code test is recorded; basket eligibility may vary.
DEX Listed Saving
The current listed price is below its comparison price; this is not a historical price claim.
DEX Verified
Every documented retailer, code, price, freshness and destination check passed.
DEX Needs Recheck
Freshness or evidence fell below the prominence threshold.
DEX Review Required
The source record is browseable, but it has not passed the publication firewall.
DEX Offer Ended
The supplied offer end date passed; the listing remains available with that status clearly labelled.
Objective DEX Verified standard
Retailer destination checked + code passed when applicable + price checked + a recent catalogue update + live destination. The state is calculated from recorded evidence, never assigned as unsupported marketing copy.
Functional state roadmap
One master character, planned useful moments.
The classic artwork is live now. Additional poses must be derived from this exact master before they are published.
Classic
The supplied master artwork and default DEX appearance.
Searching
Magnifying glass forward while exploring the catalogue.
Found It
A celebratory expression after a useful match is found.
Listed Saving
Highlights a listed comparison saving without inventing price history.
Compare / Thinking
Used beside evidence-led product comparisons.
Warning / Expired
Used when an offer has expired or needs checking.

Helpful, reassuring treatment for an empty search.
Fixed identifiers
What always stays the same
- Friendly oversized white-and-red eyes and smiling face.
- Tailored Deals red and near-black palette.
- Single red antenna, TD cap and red-trim headphones.
- Black suit, red cape and illuminated magnifying glass.
- Readable text label beside any status icon.
Prohibited changes
What DEX never becomes
- No substitute face, body shape or generic robot artwork.
- No unsupported “verified” stamp.
- No retailer or network logo replacing the TD identity.
- No random colour, face or silhouette changes.
- No use where DEX adds decoration but no decision value.
Official short story
DEX explores the catalogue, then shows the receipts.
Built inside Tailored Deals, DEX follows catalogue listings across markets, spots stale or expired listings, compares relevant alternatives and brings the useful evidence back to the shopper. DEX’s job is not to create hype; it is to make the next decision clearer.
