Mercury

Reference it for

• The bespoke arcadia + arcadiaDisplay variable-font system at intermediate weights (420/480 dominant). Reads as confident-without-being-bold - perfect for a category (banking, fintech) that needs to convey both authority and warmth.
• A 1952px outer content cap on the page, with content nested in 608/1024/1320/1376px secondary columns. Lets the page accommodate edge-to-edge full-bleed imagery without sacrificing reading width.
• Glass-blur dark nav (background-color: rgb(23,23,33), backdrop-filter: blur(10px), transition 0.5s cubic-bezier(0,0,0.6,1)) over a mostly-light page. Mode-flip executed in the nav rather than in a section.
• A three-easing × three-duration motion contract: 0.15s tailwind-default for hover, 0.3s ease-out for opacity/surface, 0.5s slow-ease for nav/header. Each easing has a single job.
• Pill-radius buttons at 40px (21 hits) - larger than Cursor's max-pill, gives the CTA more visual weight. Primary in electric indigo (Open account), secondary as outline-link in nav.
• Asymmetric input-button pair (32px / 0 / 0 / 32px on the input + 40px pill on the button) for the inline-CTA email pattern. The split-radius makes the input and button read as one composite control.
• Aspirational photography in the hero - Mercury uses landscape/sky/mountain imagery (atmospheric, abstract, low-key) rather than product screenshots. The photograph IS the brand position: "your business, in the wild."
• A deep section count (13 in main) with strong rhythmic confidence - "$650M in annual revenue and profitable" as a section title is a flex move worth understanding in isolation.

Do not copy

• arcadia / arcadiaDisplay - bespoke to Mercury, not licensable. Substitute the client's own variable sans (Inter, Söhne, Helvetica Now Variable).
• The intermediate weight values (420, 480) cannot be hit on a non-variable font; if the client's face is static-weight, you'll have to settle for 400 and 500 and lose some of the optical tuning.
• The Mercury indigo #5e72e4-ish CTA colour - strongly Mercury-coded by now. Pick the client's own primary.
• A 1952px outer cap on text-led content brands - too wide; the reading width breaks. The wide cap only works because Mercury's content alternates between full-bleed imagery and inner-column text.
• The 86-script + dozen-analytics-pixel network bill (Segment + Taboola + Bing + Google + Reddit + Facebook + DoubleClick + Rockerbox). Most clients should ship 5-15 scripts total.
• The "300K+ ambitious entrepreneurs" and "$650M revenue" claims as a tone - only land for brands that have the genuine numbers to flex.
• Backdrop-filter blur on the nav if the client's brand has light/cream sections directly under the nav - the blur smudges colour-bands; it works on Mercury because the page sections are visually distinct.
