Could you build this?

Partial Scraping websites for favicons is easy, but reliably fetching high-resolution logos, vectorizing/normalizing them, auto-cropping transparent margins, and serving optimized WebP/PNG on a fast global CDN requires a non-trivial image processing and crawling pipeline.

What it would actually take: A crawler using headless Chromium probes DNS, meta tags, and DOM structures to find SVGs and high-res logos, falling back to corporate identity registries. An image processing pipeline built on Sharp/libvips handles transparency detection, bounding box cropping, contrast analysis (for light/dark variants), and serves them through Cloudflare Workers or AWS CloudFront edge caches.
