Talos opens with “Detect problems before they cause equipment failures.” in a left-aligned split hero. The homepage continues through 3 observed sections, moving from the opening proposition into When critical equipment fails, “later” can mean years, Find the problem before your equipment breaks, Hardware. ## Color Light surfaces use 8 repeated semantic colors; the primary action carries the strongest interactive emphasis. | Token | Value | Role | Usage | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Canvas | `#f2f0ee` | Page canvas | Dominant rendered page background. | | Surface 1 | `#f5f3ef` | Surface | Repeated container or section fill; relative occurrence score 80. | | Surface 2 | `#070b12` | Surface | Repeated container or section fill; relative occurrence score 39. | | Surface 3 | `#100816` | Surface | Repeated container or section fill; relative occurrence score 18. | | Primary text | `#15141a` | Primary text | Observed display foreground with 16.1:1 contrast against the captured canvas. | | Secondary text | `#6f6c78` | Secondary text | Observed reading foreground; measured canvas-reference contrast is 4.5:1. | | Action | `#3b288f` | Primary action | Fill used by the dominant first-viewport action. | | Border | `#e8e5e1` | Border and divider | Most repeated inspectable border color. | ## Typography A single-family system uses Geist across display and reading roles, differentiated by size and weight. | Role | Family | Size | Weight | Line height | Tracking | Style | Features | Color | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | display | Geist | 54.4px | 500 | 56.576px | -2.448px | normal | none | rgb(21, 20, 26) | | heading | Geist | 44.8px | 500 | 48.384px | -1.792px | normal | none | rgb(21, 20, 26) | | body | Geist | 16px | 400 | 26px | 0px | normal | none | rgb(111, 108, 120) | | body-small | Geist | 15px | 400 | 24.375px | 0px | normal | none | rgb(111, 108, 120) | | label | Geist | 13px | 500 | 19.5px | -0.13px | normal | none | rgb(255, 255, 255) | ## Spacing and shape - Base unit: 4px - Density: sparse - Maximum content width: 504px - Section gap: 48px - Container padding: 40px - Common spacing: `12px`, `48px`, `40px`, `20px`, `10px`, `8px`, `4px`, `32px`, `64px`, `16px` - Corner strategy: Sharp geometry is the dominant shape voice. Elevation is selectively reinforced with shadow. - Radii: Pills `9999px`, Containers `2px`, Media `0px`, Buttons `0px`, Cards `0px` - Borders: `1px solid rgb(232, 229, 225)`, `1px solid rgb(44, 42, 50)` - Shadows: `rgba(21, 20, 26, 0.32) 0px 18px 48px -16px`, `rgba(59, 40, 143, 0.55) 0px 0px 16px 0px`, `rgba(21, 20, 26, 0.28) 0px 18px 48px -16px`, `rgba(245, 243, 239, 0.06) 0px 1px 0px 0px inset, rgba(20, 16, 30, 0.12) 0px 1px 2px 0px, rgba(20, 16, 30, 0.22) 0px 14px 32px 0px` ## Layout - Macrostructure: Split product narrative - Hero: Split hero: message and proof share the first viewport - Grid: 2 columns - Footer: Minimal closing footer - Reading flow: The homepage continues through 3 observed sections, moving from the opening proposition into When critical equipment fails, “later” can mean years, Find the problem before your equipment breaks, Hardware. - Section sequence: When critical equipment fails, “later” can mean years. → Find the problem before your equipment breaks. → Hardware ## Component grammar ### Hero Split, left-aligned opening anchored by “Book a Demo”. - Role: Opening proposition - Observed instances: 1 - Pattern: `split` - Alignment: `left` - Heading: `Geist · 54.4px / 500` - Media: `image-led` ### Navigation Static navigation with 6 visible actions in the desktop opening. - Role: Global wayfinding - Observed instances: 1 - Text: `#15141a` - Border: `none` - Radius: `0px` - Padding: `0px 0px 0px 0px` - Type: `Geist · 16px / 400` - Position: `static` - Height: `21px` ### Primary action “Book a Demo” is the strongest first-viewport action by semantic intent and visual contrast. - Role: Conversion - Observed instances: 1 - Background: `#3b288f` - Text: `#ffffff` - Border: `none` - Radius: `9999px` - Padding: `0px 24px 0px 24px` - Type: `Geist · 15px / 500` ### Content card 1 style-matched content card instance was found among 1 candidates; properties describe the dominant observed cluster. - Role: Repeated content module - Observed instances: 1 - Text: `#15141a` - Border: `none` - Radius: `0px` - Padding: `0px 0px 0px 0px` - Type: `Geist · 16px / 400` - Candidate pool: `1` ### Media frame 2 style-matched media elements were found among 7 rendered candidates; fill fitting and 0px are the most repeated treatments. - Role: Visual proof - Observed instances: 2 - Fit: `fill, cover` - Ratios: `3.66, 2.03, 0.98, 1.05, 3.62` - Radius: `0px` - Candidate pool: `7` ### Footer 0 visible actions close the page on a transparent surface. - Role: Closing navigation - Observed instances: 1 - Text: `#15141a` - Border: `none` - Radius: `0px` - Padding: `0px 0px 0px 0px` - Type: `Geist · 16px / 400` - Links: `0` ## Imagery Image led media acts as the page’s primary visual proof rather than decoration. A focused visual anchors the first viewport. - Inventory: 7 images/canvas elements and 0 videos across the analyzed homepage. - Treatment: fill fitting · square-edged frames ## Motion 5 declared keyframes and 12 active animations were inspectable at capture; observed timing uses 0.3s, 0.15s, 0.2s. - Libraries: CSS / browser-native or bundled source not identifiable - Durations: `0.3s`, `0.15s`, `0.2s`, `0.5s`, `6.8s`, `6.4s`, `0.01ms` - Easings: `ease-in-out`, `ease-out`, `cubic-bezier(0.22, 1, 0.36, 1)` - Interaction states: transition-all, hover, focus, active, disabled - 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 40.8px. - 1 multi-column content region remains on mobile. - Horizontal overflow: not detected ## Do - Pair the observed #f2f0ee canvas with #15141a primary copy before adding secondary surfaces. - Use Geist at 54.4px/56.576px, weight 500, for the primary display moment. - Reserve the strongest first-viewport contrast for “Book a Demo” 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; 9999px is the repeated treatment on pills. - Do not reuse the #3b288f action color across decorative elements; keep its interactive emphasis selective. - Do not introduce extra type families beyond Geist. - Do not copy transition-all declarations; keep only purposeful transform or opacity motion. ## Evidence - Hero: `/captures/talos-us/hero.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 0px) — Hero viewport evidence; animated text state captured. - Mid-page: `/captures/talos-us/middle.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 2377px) — Mid-page viewport evidence; animated text state captured. - Closing: `/captures/talos-us/closing.webp` (960 × 600, scroll 4533px) — Closing viewport evidence; animated text state captured. - Mobile: `/captures/talos-us/mobile.webp` (390 × 844, scroll 0px) — Mobile viewport evidence; animated text state captured. ## Confidence notes - The hero heading was read from semantic heading markup. - 8 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.
