Conversion system overview
Editorial energy, conversion discipline
The system combines expressive launch storytelling with strict conversion hierarchy. Large display type establishes the promise; compact proof, product evidence, and repeated single-purpose actions move the reader through the page without turning every section into a card.
Relay is fictional preview content. The reusable contract is the page rhythm, type pairing, signal-red action hierarchy, product evidence treatment, copy limits, media rules, and responsive marketing states.
Display headline
Ship the story your product deserves.
CTA hierarchy
One filled action per section. Secondary actions remain quiet text links.
Product evidence
Page anatomy
Full landing sequence

The template keeps claims concrete and makes each CTA describe the real outcome.
Good
- Turn every product release into a story customers can follow.
- Connect evidence, tasks, and messaging in one launch workspace.
- Build launch plan
Avoid
- revolutionize
- supercharge
- next-generation
- seamless
- unlock the power of AI
Media and conversion
Guardrails for the AI agent
Media rules
- Show real product UI when claiming workflow clarity
- Use abstract composition only for proof labels or issue markers
- Crop screenshots around the active release timeline
- Place captions below media
- Use 10px media radius and a thin Rule outline
- Mobile crops preserve labels and primary task state
Conversion rules
- One primary conversion action per section
- Proof appears before the visitor has to trust a large claim
- Primary CTA uses Signal Red and should not compete with another filled button
- Evidence Blue is reserved for product proof and selected data
- Final CTA repeats the highest-intent action with reassurance
- Secondary actions are text links or quiet outlines
Do
- State one concrete promise in the hero
- Make product evidence visible in the first viewport
- Use one primary conversion action per section
- Alternate narrative density intentionally
- Keep body copy to readable line lengths
- Pair claims with proof
- Use display type selectively
- Preserve a strong mobile reading order
Don't
- No generic “Build faster, ship smarter” copy
- No purple gradients because the page is SaaS
- No every-section-inside-a-card layout
- No repeated centered layout from top to bottom
- No fake logos without text labels
- No six-line mobile hero headlines
- No two equal primary CTAs beside each other
- No arbitrary Tailwind colors

# Editorial Product Landing Page DESIGN.md
## Template intent
Build an editorial product landing page for Relay, a fictional launch-operations product for small
product teams. The page should turn scattered product changes, customer evidence, launch tasks, and
message drafts into one clear release narrative.
This is a full landing-page system, not a hero-only template. It defines the page anatomy,
conversion hierarchy, copy rules, media behavior, responsive composition, accessibility states, and
implementation tokens needed for Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex.
## Visual thesis
Editorial launch system with signal red.
- Use warm paper instead of pure white.
- Use deep carbon ink instead of generic slate.
- Use signal red for the one primary conversion action in each section.
- Use evidence blue only for product proof, metrics, and data evidence.
- Let typography and asymmetry do the work before decoration.
- Keep controls square or lightly rounded.
- Use thin rules, proof labels, issue numbers, and annotations.
- Show product evidence in the first viewport.
- Do not add gradients, glassmorphism, random floating pills, or AI sparkle decoration.
## Page anatomy
1. Navigation
- Purpose: orient the visitor and expose one primary action.
- Anatomy: wordmark, compact links, product status label, primary CTA.
- Primary action: Build launch plan.
- Mobile: collapse links behind a menu; keep CTA visible or inside the first menu row.
- Failure: a centered nav with five equal actions and no hierarchy.
2. Hero promise
- Purpose: state one concrete promise and show product evidence.
- Anatomy: eyebrow, H1, body copy, CTA pair, proof label, launch desk media.
- Primary action: Build launch plan.
- Density: spacious text, dense media.
- Mobile: copy before media, two CTAs stacked only when width requires it.
- Failure: vague "Build faster, ship smarter" copy with hidden product UI.
3. Social proof
- Purpose: make the main promise feel earned before asking for trust.
- Anatomy: proof label, monochrome team names, one metric, accessible text fallback.
- Primary action: none.
- Mobile: wrap names into two columns.
- Failure: fake logo shapes with no labels.
4. Product evidence
- Purpose: show how evidence, tasks, and messaging connect.
- Anatomy: screenshot frame, release timeline, customer quote, task lane, caption.
- Primary action: See the workspace.
Use with AI Coding Agents
Copy one of these prompts into your AI coding agent to apply the Editorial Product Landing Page DESIGN.md design system to your project. The DESIGN.md file in your repo root is the source of truth.
# .cursor/rules (or DESIGN.md) You are working in a project that uses the Editorial Product Landing Page DESIGN.md design system. Read the DESIGN.md file in this project root and follow it strictly when generating UI. Match the brand's exact colors, typography, spacing scale, and border radius. Do not create generic Tailwind UI — apply the visual language from DESIGN.md. Key rules: - Use the defined color palette, not arbitrary hex values - Apply the correct font family and weight scale - Follow spacing tokens (4/8/12/16/24/32px scale) - Match component patterns: buttons, cards, inputs, badges as specified
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the Editorial Product Landing Page DESIGN.md with Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex?
Yes. Copy the DESIGN.md file into your project root and reference it in your agent rules. For Cursor, add it to .cursor/rules. For Claude Code, include it as CLAUDE.md. For Codex, add it to your system prompt. The agent will read it and apply the Editorial Product Landing Page visual system to any UI it generates.
Is this an official Editorial Product Landing Page file?
No — this is an independent reference created for AI coding agent compatibility. It is not officially endorsed by Editorial Product Landing Page. The visual system was analyzed and documented to help AI agents produce UI that matches the Editorial Product Landing Page aesthetic. Always verify against official Editorial Product Landing Page documentation.
What is a DESIGN.md file?
A DESIGN.md file is a Markdown document that describes a product's visual design system in a format that AI coding agents can read and follow. It captures color palettes, typography, spacing, component patterns, and usage rules — giving AI agents like Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex a source of truth for consistent UI generation.
Can I use the Editorial Product Landing Page color tokens and visual style in my own project?
The design tokens and visual patterns documented here are for reference and AI agent guidance. If you are building a project inspired by the Editorial Product Landing Page visual style, ensure your use is consistent with Editorial Product Landing Page's brand guidelines and any applicable trademark or copyright rules. This file helps AI agents understand a style — it does not grant license to use proprietary brand assets.
How do I add this to my project?
Download the DESIGN.md file (requires free account) and place it in your project root. Then tell your AI agent to read it: "Read the DESIGN.md file in this project and follow its design system when generating UI." The agent will pick it up automatically in most modern AI coding tools.
