Design a Modern 3D Logo for AI EdTech Startup "Skill Sathi"

Project Description:
We're seeking a professional logo designer with expertise in 3D rendering, modern branding, and tech-inspired design for our startup Skill Sathi, an AI-driven platform empowering students globally.

We already have a base concept and need you to bring it to life with precision, creativity, and alignment to our vision. The final design should be scalable, unique, and visually compelling across platforms (web, mobile, merchandise, 4K screens).

Base Design Elements (to start from):
A 3D robot head with a graduation cap

An upward arrow with gradient bars symbolizing growth

Text: “Skill Sathi”

Design Requirements:
3D Effects:
Enhance the 3D extrusion on the robot head, cap, arrow, and text

Add soft shadows (approx. 20% opacity, slight offset) to create depth and a futuristic look

Color Scheme:
Primary Blue: #1E3A8A (used for robot & text base)

Gradient Highlight: Orange #F97316 → Blue #1E3A8A (used on cap & arrow)

Circuit Detail Color: Teal #14B8A6 (used for circuit-like lines on robot)

Gradient & Abstract Element:
Extend gradient smoothly across the cap and arrow

Retain and enhance the teal circuit-like lines on the robot’s sides with a subtle curve (to show AI and learning synergy)

Icon Versatility:
Logo must work in both full form (icon + text) and standalone (robot + cap + arrow)

Should be crisp and legible on 4K platforms, merchandise, favicon, etc.

Text Design – "Skill Sathi":
Font Style: Start from Poppins or similar, upgrade to a more tech-forward custom-styled look

Circuit Detail: Consider a thin teal line running through "Skill" or a blue-to-teal gradient

Weight: "Skill" – Bold (800); "Sathi" – Light (400), with slight italic for friendly, dynamic vibe

3D Depth: Add stronger bevel/shadow on text to match icon depth

Spacing: Increase letter spacing by 5–10% for a premium, clean layout

Deliverables:

Full logo (icon + text)

Standalone icon version

Editable source files (.AI, .PSD, .SVG, .PNG)

Logo preview on dark & light backgrounds

Favicon/icon set (optional bonus)

Ideal Skills:

Logo design (3D + flat)

Branding for tech/startup/education

Adobe Illustrator / Photoshop / Figma

Strong portfolio with futuristic or AI-driven work
