A focused visual anchors the first viewport. - Inventory: 21 images/canvas elements and 4 videos across the analyzed homepage. - Treatment: contain fitting · square-edged frames ## Motion 12 declared keyframes and 10 active animations were inspectable at capture; observed timing uses 0.16s, 0.01ms, 0.15s. - Libraries: CSS / browser-native or bundled source not identifiable - Durations: `0.16s`, `0.01ms`, `0.15s` - Easings: `ease`, `ease-out, ease-out`, `cubic-bezier(0.16, 1, 0.3, 1)`, `ease, ease, ease`, `ease-out`, `ease, ease` - Interaction states: hover, focus, transition-all, active, disabled - Reduced-motion declaration found: yes ## Responsive behavior Measured at 390 × 844. - Desktop navigation reduces from 11 visible actions to 4. - Hero alignment changes from left to center; mobile heading size is 50.7px. - 14 multi-column content regions remain on mobile. - Horizontal overflow: not detected ## Do - Pair the observed #060606 canvas with #f2f0e9 primary copy before adding secondary surfaces. - Use Lantern Sans at 112px/107.52px, weight 460, for the primary display moment. - Reserve the strongest first-viewport contrast for “Book a Demo” within the left-aligned visual-led hero. - Video led media acts as the page’s primary visual proof rather than decoration. ## Don’t - Do not mix in arbitrary radii; 0px is the repeated treatment on media. - Do not reuse the #f2f0e9 action color across decorative elements; keep its interactive emphasis selective. - Do not introduce extra type families beyond Lantern Sans and Ui Monospace. - Do not copy transition-all declarations; keep only purposeful transform or opacity motion. ## Evidence - Hero: `/captures/lantern-ai/hero.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 0px) — Visible section: Turn your taste into hires. - Mid-page: `/captures/lantern-ai/middle.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 4504px) — Visible section: Every introduction earns its place. - Closing: `/captures/lantern-ai/closing.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 8788px) — Visible section: Give Lantern the role. We’ll take it from here. - Mobile: `/captures/lantern-ai/mobile.webp` (390 × 844, scroll 0px) — Visible section: Turn your taste into hires. ## Confidence notes - The hero heading was read from semantic heading markup. - 9 responsive breakpoint declarations were inspectable. - 2 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.
