# Design Brief: Gradient Glow (with Dark Developer)

Luminous radial glows and translucent glass panels, widely used across modern AI products.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #0c0d13;
  --surface: #171721;
  --foreground: #f7f7fb;
  --muted-foreground: #8b90a8;
  --accent: #7653ff;
  --radius: 9999px;
  --font-heading: "Aeonik Extended", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "Aeonik", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #0C0D13 (~80%) · Surface #171721 (~7%) · Text #F7F7FB (~6%) · Muted Text #8B90A8 (~4%) · Accent #7653FF (~3%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Centered Headline + CTA
- Navigation: Full-Width Top Bar
- Theme & density: Dark · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Pill; no drop shadows—separate layers with hairline borders and whitespace
- Primary visual medium: Pure Typography & Geometry
- Conversion CTA: Book Demo / Contact Sales · Trust bar uses Customer / Press Logo Strip
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor
- Hero components: Metrics Strip, Customer Logo Wall
- Spatial layout notes: Centered Headline + CTA hero structure paired with book demo / contact sales CTA and customer / press logo strip.
- Visual summary: Gradient Glow (Dark canvas, balanced density) featuring centered headline + cta layout and pure typography & geometry visuals.

## Avoid

- Muddy low-contrast text over gradients
- Overuse of full-screen rainbow backgrounds
- Cluttered dense tables in the hero

Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.
