# Financial Datasets design system

- Warning: Automated interpretation; editorial review is pending.
- Warning: Partial inspection: CSS requests jetbrains mono, but those font faces were unavailable in the closing frame. Screenshots show browser fallback; font tokens describe declared families, not verified glyph faces.
- Warning: Animated or layered text alternatives were detected; the analysis records the most visually prominent state at capture.

## Visual thesis

Light, left-aligned split product story with soft geometry and image-led proof.

Financial Datasets \| Stock Market API for AI Agents opens with “Connect your agent to the stock market” in a left-aligned split hero. The homepage continues through 8 observed sections, moving from the opening proposition into Institutional-grade market data for AI, Search across thousands of stocks and assets, Single source of truth.

## Color

Light surfaces use 8 repeated semantic colors; the primary action carries the strongest interactive emphasis.

| Token | Value | Role | Usage |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Canvas | `#f7f7f4` | Page canvas | Dominant rendered page background. |
| Surface 1 | `#f2f1ed` | Surface | Repeated container or section fill; relative occurrence score 124. |
| Surface 2 | `rgba(241, 241, 237, 0.502)` | Surface | Repeated container or section fill; relative occurrence score 8. |
| Surface 3 | `rgba(242, 242, 238, 0.302)` | Surface | Repeated container or section fill; relative occurrence score 8. |
| Primary text | `#26251e` | Primary text | Observed display foreground with 14.3:1 contrast against the captured canvas. |
| Secondary text | `rgba(38, 37, 30, 0.6)` | Secondary text | Observed reading foreground; measured canvas-reference contrast is 4.1:1. |
| Action | `#14120b` | Primary action | Fill used by the dominant first-viewport action. |
| Border | `#d4d4d4` | Border and divider | Most repeated inspectable border color. |

## Typography

The observed type system assigns Inter to display, heading, body text; Ui Monospace to label text.

| Role | Family | Size | Weight | Line height | Tracking | Style | Features | Color |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| display | Inter | 64px | 600 | 67.84px | -1.92px | normal | none | rgb(38, 37, 30) |
| heading | Inter | 24px | 600 | 32px | -0.6px | normal | none | rgb(38, 37, 30) |
| body | Inter | 14px | 400 | 22.75px | 0px | normal | none | rgba(38, 37, 30, 0.600) |
| label | Ui Monospace | 11px | 400 | 16.5px | 1.1px | normal | none | rgb(38, 37, 30) |

## Imagery

Image led media acts as the page’s primary visual proof rather than decoration. Multiple visual elements share the first viewport.

- Inventory: 4 images/canvas elements and 0 videos across the analyzed homepage.
- Treatment: fill fitting · square-edged frames

## Motion

11 declared keyframes and 6 active animations were inspectable at capture; observed timing uses 0.2s, 0.3s, 0.5s.

- Libraries: CSS / browser-native or bundled source not identifiable
- Durations: `0.2s`, `0.3s`, `0.5s`, `0.15s`, `15s`
- Easings: `ease`, `linear`, `ease, ease`
- Interaction states: transition-all, hover, focus, disabled, active
- Reduced-motion declaration found: yes

## Responsive behavior

Measured at 390 × 844.

- Desktop navigation reduces from 6 visible actions to 2.
- Hero alignment changes from left to center; mobile heading size is 36px.
- 1 multi-column content region remains on mobile.
- Horizontal overflow: not detected

## Do

- Pair the observed #f7f7f4 canvas with #26251e primary copy before adding secondary surfaces.
- Use Inter at 64px/67.84px, weight 600, for the primary display moment.
- Reserve the strongest first-viewport contrast for “Get API key” within the left-aligned split hero.
- Image led media acts as the page’s primary visual proof rather than decoration.

## Don’t

- Do not mix in arbitrary radii; 8px is the repeated treatment on buttons.
- Do not reuse the #14120b action color across decorative elements; keep its interactive emphasis selective.
- Do not introduce extra type families beyond Inter and Ui Monospace.
- Do not copy transition-all declarations; keep only purposeful transform or opacity motion.

## Evidence

- Hero: `/captures/financial-datasets/hero.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 0px) — Hero viewport evidence; animated text state captured.

## Confidence notes

- The hero heading was read from semantic heading markup.
- 6 responsive breakpoint declarations were inspectable.
- 3 stylesheets were inspectable; 0 cross-origin stylesheets were unavailable to rule inspection.
- Computed styles describe the captured render; source design tokens and proprietary font files were not copied.
