Best free BIMI record generators

AdminKit's BIMI record generator builds the v=BIMI1 string entirely in your browser and says plainly that BIMI does nothing until DMARC is enforced, but it has no logo converter and no avatar-preference option; on what each tool's own page documents, AdminKit ranks second of three, behind EasyDMARC.

Ranked at a glance

  1. EasyDMARC

    Best for: The broadest documented free feature set around the record: avatar-preference option, a linked logo converter, VMC and CMC guidance and the DMARC-enforcement prerequisite

  2. AdminKit

    Best for: Building a v=BIMI1 record in the browser with nothing sent anywhere, with the DMARC-enforcement prerequisite stated and a .svg warning, but no logo converter or avp option

  3. DMARCLY

    Best for: A minimal two-field generator (logo URL and trust certificate URL); the page documents little else

AdminKit is built by Netbase JSC. AdminKit is listed below; the other tools are independent.

Criteria and how we weighted them

This roundup ranks three free BIMI record generators against four published criteria, in priority order, using only what each tool’s own page stated when read on 2026-11-08:

  1. Record fields covered — a BIMI record needs a version tag and a logo URL (l=), and can carry a certificate URL (a=), as set out in the BIMI Internet-Draft. A generator that documents more of what it asks for, or offers more of the optional settings, scores higher.
  2. States the DMARC prerequisite — BIMI builds on an enforced DMARC policy (RFC 7489 section 6.3 defines p=quarantine and p=reject as the policies that act on failing mail), so a generator that tells you so is better than one that lets you publish an inert record unwarned.
  3. Helps with the logo format — BIMI wants a restricted SVG profile, and the page should say so or help produce it.
  4. Nothing leaves your browser — documented on the page itself, not assumed.

Where a page did not mention a feature, the table says so with a dash. That is not a claim that the feature is missing, only that the page read did not document it. AdminKit’s BIMI record generator ranks second of three: EasyDMARC’s page documents more on criteria 1 and 3 and ties AdminKit on criterion 2, so it ranks first. AdminKit takes second place ahead of DMARCLY because it documents criteria 2 and 4 and DMARCLY’s page documents neither.

The ranked list, explained

1. EasyDMARC — per its own page, read 2026-11-08, titled “BIMI Record Generator” and described as a “free online tool”. The form asks for a Domain, a Logo Location, a VMC Certificate Location and an Avatar Preference (avp) with “brand” as the default. The page names a “crucial prerequisite”: “ensure your DMARC policy is set to enforcement mode (p=quarantine or p=reject)”. It steps through converting a logo to a Tiny P/S SVG with its own BIMI Logo Converter and says a certificate is “not a strict prerequisite, and only Gmail enforces them” while recommending one. That is the vendor’s own statement, not something verified here. The page shows “Sign In” and “Start Free Trial” in its navigation without saying whether the generator needs an account, and does not say where the record is built.

2. AdminKit — the BIMI record generator builds the v=BIMI1 TXT record from an SVG logo URL (l=) and an optional VMC URL (a=) entirely in browser JavaScript, with nothing sent to any server. It checks the URLs use https://, warns when the logo URL does not end in .svg and when no VMC is set, and states that a BIMI record on top of p=none is published but inert. It ranks behind EasyDMARC because it offers no logo converter and no avatar-preference option, and it never fetches or validates the logo or certificate. See the section below.

3. DMARCLY — per its own page, read 2026-11-08, titled “Free BIMI Record Generator”. It asks for a “Logo URL” with the note “Logo must be in SVG format” and a “Trust Certificate URL”, then a “Generate BIMI Record” button. The page says the generator “generates a BIMI record based on your parameters” and defines BIMI in one sentence. It shows “Free Trial” and “Log In” links without saying whether the generator needs an account, and states nothing about the DMARC prerequisite, the tags it builds, or where the record is built. Its low placement reflects a short page, not a verdict on the tool.

Best for your specific need

  • Producing a BIMI-ready SVG from an existing logo, then the record: EasyDMARC, whose page links its own logo converter.
  • Building a record without sending anything anywhere: AdminKit, the only one of the three whose page documents that.
  • Being told up front that BIMI needs enforced DMARC: EasyDMARC or AdminKit.
  • A bare-bones two-field form: DMARCLY.

Where AdminKit is honestly behind

AdminKit’s generator has no logo converter, so you must already have an SVG Tiny PS file hosted over HTTPS; EasyDMARC’s page links a converter for that step. It has no avatar-preference option, which EasyDMARC’s form documents. It only checks that the logo URL looks like an SVG; it never fetches the file, never checks it against the SVG Tiny PS profile, and never validates a certificate chain. And because it never queries DNS, it cannot tell you what your domain publishes today. Use AdminKit’s BIMI check once the record is live, and its DMARC check to confirm enforcement first. For comparing checkers rather than generators, see best free BIMI record checkers. The generator sits in AdminKit’s email-authentication cluster.

Frequently asked questions

Is AdminKit ranked first because AdminKit wrote this page?

No — AdminKit ranks second of three. The criteria are published before the ranking. EasyDMARC's own page documents a broader free feature set around the record: a domain field, logo and VMC location fields, an avatar-preference (avp) option, a link to its own BIMI Logo Converter, and the same DMARC-enforcement prerequisite AdminKit states. AdminKit ranks ahead of DMARCLY because its page documents the DMARC prerequisite and that nothing leaves your browser, while DMARCLY's page documents neither.

Why isn't PowerDMARC's BIMI record generator included?

A read-only attempt to load https://powerdmarc.com/bimi-record-generator/ on 2026-11-08 returned an HTTP 403 Forbidden response, and two other likely addresses on the same site did the same. Rather than describe the tool from memory, PowerDMARC is left out of the ranked list and table entirely.

Why aren't Valimail, Red Sift, MxToolbox and BIMI Group's BIMI Inspector included?

Each was tried read-only on 2026-11-08 and could not be used honestly. https://www.valimail.com/bimi-record-generator/ returned HTTP 404 and https://www.valimail.com/bimi-generator/ returned HTTP 403. https://redsift.com/tools/bimi-record-generator and https://redsift.com/tools/bimi-generator both returned HTTP 404, so no Red Sift generator page could be loaded. MxToolbox's page at https://mxtoolbox.com/bimi.aspx loads but describes itself as "a diagnostic tool that will look for a BIMI Record for the queried domain name", a lookup rather than a generator. The BIMI Group page at https://bimigroup.org/bimi-generator/ says "This tool only validates the format of your BIMI record and your DMARC record being at enforcement", so it is a checker too; checkers are compared in the best free BIMI checkers roundup. None is described from memory.

Does this page use any competitor's logo or brand assets?

No. Every tool name on this page is used only to identify and compare a publicly available product (nominative use). AdminKit is not affiliated with or endorsed by EasyDMARC or DMARCLY.

Are the competitor tools really limited to what the table says?

No — the table records only what each vendor's own page stated when read on 2026-11-08. The DMARCLY page in particular is short, so a dash in the table means "not stated on the page read", not "the feature is absent". With only two competitors loaded, the ranking measures documented evidence on a small field, and a tool with a richer interface behind a form could deserve a better place than it gets here.

Does a generated BIMI record make my logo appear in inboxes?

No. A generator only produces text. BIMI builds on an enforced DMARC policy (p=quarantine or p=reject), a correctly formatted SVG Tiny PS logo hosted over HTTPS and, for some mailbox providers, a certificate, and the BIMI specification is still an Internet-Draft rather than a published RFC. After you publish the record, confirm it with a checker that queries DNS, such as AdminKit's BIMI check.

Free checks tell you the state today. Protective DNS and monitoring tell you when it changes.
